TOFW & Free Printables

So I have a few different posts I should probably have finished up & published before this, but I felt the strong urge to share this one first.  If you follow me on instagram, you may have seen a few posts or figured out by my blog that I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.  To learn more about my church, please go here.
First off, let me say I was not asked or compensated for writing this post- all thoughts and opinions and compelling to write this is straight from me!

Months ago, I emailed my mom & one side of my sister-in-laws about attending a Time Out for Women event.  All but one was able to make it!  I went in expected to receive some good words of wisdom & be uplifted.  I left the first night with my expectations already exceeded.  We attended the Phoenix event & were informed that we were the largest event they have had!  5500 women singing, dancing, laughing & feeling the spirit was an experience & happiness I hope I never forget!

We got to hear from (personally) one of my favorite singers, Hilary Weeks.  I love this song & the message it gives to each of us.  



I remember thinking after that weekend how amazing & uplifted I felt- I told a good friend I just felt like I was glowing!  The messages were those of hope, encouragement & inspiration and this event is not just for women of LDS faith.

I sifted through my notes & came away with 2 quotes I wanted to make into printables to share with you.

The first is from Laurel Christensen Day- an amazing woman who spoke on the power of second chances & bravery.
The other is from the women of Mercy River, a musical group.  In between their singing they each took a turn speaking & I cannot for the life of me remember which of them said it. (If you do- please let me know!)  I hope you enjoy these printables & look up where your nearest TOFW next year is!
