A Smorgasbord of Inspiration at Time Out for Women 2015

The lights shone bright as Michael McLean took the stage, his soulful voice captivating the audience with heartwarming songs. Meanwhile, Jason Wright regaled us with his witty humor and poignant stories of failure turned success. The excitement was palpable on Friday night at this year's Time Out for Women event in Phoenix.

As I attended alone for the first time, I wasn't sure what to expect. Last year, I had joined my daughters in St. George for this inspiring celebration. However, I found something valuable from every speaker and each musical performance that left me feeling uplifted.

Time Out for Women has evolved into an annual event with multiple stops across the United States and Canada since its inception in Phoenix in September 2002. This year's celebration marked a significant milestone – the 10-year anniversary of this program aimed at busy Mormon women seeking inspiration and encouragement.

The Phoenix Civic Center was filled to capacity, with over 4,000 women gathering for a weekend of spiritual growth and connection. As we sought answers to life's challenges, each presenter shared their unique experiences, hopes, and dreams. The event's diverse lineup catered to a wide range of ages, interests, vocations, and life circumstances, making it a truly inclusive and enriching experience.

Michael McLean's music is known for its emotional depth and poignant lyrics, and he did not disappoint. His songs resonated with the audience, evoking feelings of joy, reflection, and introspection. Jason Wright's wit and humor added a refreshing touch to the evening, making it an unforgettable experience.

Throughout the weekend, we were treated to a smorgasbord of music, speakers, and workshops. From uplifting messages to practical advice on time management and self-care, there was something for everyone. The event's organizers had carefully curated the program to ensure that every attendee would leave feeling inspired and motivated.

One of the highlights of the weekend was the opportunity to connect with fellow women from diverse backgrounds. Despite our differences, we shared a common thread – our desire to seek the good and find inspiration in our daily lives. As we networked and formed new friendships, I realized that Time Out for Women is not just an event but a community that transcends geographical boundaries.

As I reflect on this year's experience, I am reminded of the value of taking time for oneself. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in our daily routines and forget to prioritize self-care. Time Out for Women serves as a powerful reminder to take a step back, recharge, and refocus on what truly matters.

As we celebrated the 10-year anniversary of this inspiring program, I couldn't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to be a part of it. Whether you're a busy mom, a working professional, or simply looking for a spiritual boost, Time Out for Women is an event that will leave you feeling uplifted and rejuvenated.

So mark your calendars for next year's celebration, as Time Out for Women continues to spread its message of hope and encouragement across the United States and Canada. With its diverse lineup of speakers, music, and workshops, this event promises to be an unforgettable experience that will inspire and motivate you to seek the good in all aspects of your life.
