I'm so glad you got to go and meet them too!!
Rhonda shared her story in a way I had never heard before, so much detail, from the heart, feelings she experienced from her gu.t moved many to tears, including myself. The woman sitting next to me grabbed and held my hand. . I agree with you, Rhonda also had a more powerful effect on me too. I esp loved when she said " change one thing, 5 mins" a day to build up your goal and then shared her gym, treadmill story,....
1st day, put my sneakers on!! woohoo
2nd day, put my sweats on...woohoo
3rd say, drove by the gym, ok so now I know where it is
4th day, went in and got a scheduele! good for me!!
5th day, ok, Ill do the treadmill for..5 mins
"warm up counts" haha
okay so Im on the treadmill..and what happens?, skinny chick hops on the treadmill next to me"....LOL
Now I could try and outrun her, show her I can, but if I do Im giving her my power, so what do i do? stop at 5 mins, yes./ and one day I'll build up to 45 mins, ect, and one day I"LL be the skinny chick"
this is from the best of my memory.
I also liked it when she differentiated between are you doing something cause you choose to, or you ought to? cause when you do it cause you ought to, your giving away your spirit or something like that. she spoke about keeping a lifelog for like 7 days and keeping track of things you do from choice or ought. Once again, I viisited the site the other day, under the tour pop up thier is a section to print out the programs they presented.
It was so exciting, I look at the pic of me and rhonda and I still can't believe I met her. It;s also exciting to meet these woman that we watch go thru these challenges and struggles. I have met a few myself and have become somewhat friendly with two of them.
I must say I was taken aback by something Iynala said,, after my jaw dropped open I laughed so hard..A woman was sharing that her husband was less than supportive about her watching the show and her wanting to better herself, she continued to on not getting it, what they were saying to her, that basically its about her and what she wants, she continued to " but how to I make him see, change, etc" finally Iyanla said I'm all jazzed up or somethign like that, becoming visibly kinda"jazzed" up for lack of a better word..., and she said ladies " you want to have this conversation BEFORE you get married!!!!" (This is what I want and can you support me in that , etc) LADIES!!! You wanna know how long it is, how big it is and where it's been, BEFORE you get married!!" It was sooo funny...
Thank you so much for sharing with us, I would love ot hear more about your day should you choose to share. Will you be posting your photos? I'm torn becasue part of me wants to share, but I do not feel comfortablel posting photos of others or myself for that matter on the internet, nor do I know how to, LOL
