Inspiring Lives Magazine Collaboration
We are so excited to be on the cover of Inspiring Lives Magazine. This has been a story years in the making! 8 years ago I (Melanie) was sitting on my sectional couch with a newborn and a toddler trying to figure out this role as a mom of 2 little boys! I had just walked away from my full time career to be a stay at home mom. It was a wild and crazy ride that took me by surprise.
About two months ago, I received a text message late one evening for an opportunity that came up at the last minute from Dr. Shellie Hipsky. It was in a playplace in Wexford that I first met Dr. Shellie Hipsky as we sat there watching our little ones play that we struck up a conversation that led back to this moment. Dr. Shellie asked if Katy and I were available the next morning to be on the cover of the Fall 2019 issue for the Inspiring Lives Magazine. So when Shellie Hipsky asked Katy Ursta and I to be on the COVER (yes I said cover) of the fall edition of Inspiring Lives Magazine, it quite literally took our breath away!
Opportunity Arises When You Least Expect It!
As entrepreneurs you have to be willing to switch your schedule and flexible especially when opportunities as great as these arise when you least expect it! You have to be willing to do work at 10:30PM when you know the rest of the world is sleeping. Therefore, we were in our closets sending each other pictures of our outfits on what to wear to the shoot. We shifted our entire day because it was a great opportunity that we could not ever pass up!
However, it is important to note that we originally had 4 podcast recordings to do that day. Thanks to our amazing podcast guests, they all had agreed to reschedule for a different day and time!
Everything worked out fantastically from the wardrobe to the hair and makeup people we got to work with. We had such a great day learning from Dr. Shellie and had a really good discussion. So thank you Dr. Shellie, Kelly Frost and the entire Inspiring Lives Team for this incredible experience!!! This is something that we will never, ever forget!
This entire experience was a reminder to Katy and I that anything can happen!
We are:
- Making a positive impact!
- Helping other women fulfill their mission and purpose!
- Giving women a platform!
- Practicing collaboration over competition!
- Living proof that business can be fun & make an impact too!
- MAKING THESE DREAMS WE HAVE FOR CHIC A REALITY!!!!
In summary, it was absolutely an honor to share Chic Influencer through the Inspiring Lives Magazine and we can’t wait for you to read it too! We are so incredibly thankful to be apart of the Inspiring Lives Magazine Fall 2019 cover.
