Today I had the pleasure of seeing the founder of a wonderful, empowering non-profit organization called Girls On The Run. Her name is Molly Barker and her story is VERY inspiring. Since I am a speaker, many times I am the one holding the mic and empowering and inspiring the audience, but today I was humbled by one of the most inspiring speakers I've ever seen. She had me laughing and crying at the same time and spoke straight from her heart to mine. She is truly an example of someone who has turned her passion and purpose into a reality that touches the lives of thousands of young women every year. Go to www.girlsontherun.org to learn more.
Not only did her speech inspire and uplift me, it got me thinking about how awesome it is to be on the receiving end of inspiration. When we're inspired, a spark is ignited inside of us. When we are inspired we re-member who we are! When we are inspired we feel joy and hope. When we are inspired we feel powerful and ready to go after our dreams!
Inspiration can come from so many experiences. I encourage you to seek inspiration in your life. Whether it be a friend who tells you just what you need to hear, a gorgeous bloom in your flower pot that makes you say "wow!" or the laughter of a child feel the inspiration and be grateful for it. Fill yourself up with it and give it away to someone else so that they can be on the receiving end of inspiration!
