So, it’s been a few days since I’ve been home and thankfully, I won’t have to hop on a plane until February. While I loved attending 3 separate events in 4 weeks, I missed the predictability of my home-work schedule.
I was one of Ali Brown’s scholarship winners and attended her Shine event which took place in Las Vegas from Nov 5-7, 2009 at no cost. Well, to be exact, there was a cost because I had to shell out $500 for airfare, $230 for hotel (I shared my room) and about $150 for food, however, my registration fee of $1500 was waived.
I met tons of women over the 3 day event, took pictures, kissed babies, you know, the whole nine. In a room filled with 500 women and probably 5 men, I could feel a wave of anticipation in the air.
I soaked in the energy in the room and smiled at God for making this trip happen. Everything aligned so I could be at Shine and I was curious to know what God wanted to show me. I knew something big would happen for me at Shine and I was nervous not knowing what would be revealed.
Well, it was in the first 15-minutes of the event that 12-months of confusion started to unravel. And it was in that moment I regretted going to Ali’s event. Why? Because there was simply no turning back because I had been “found out.”
