Testimonials
"Every morning at 8 my cell phone gives a little beep and lets me know that a few words of inspiration are waiting for me there. I get text messages written by Marguerite Kelly, author of the Parents’ Almanac column in the Washington Post and of several books I found helpful when my children were young. They are grown and away from home now but I still find the messages I get, well, inspiring! Many offer a specific tip about parenting – every week, let your child see you put money for groceries, the rent, gas for the car, in separate envelopes to help him or her understand the concept of budgeting – others are simply words of encouragement. They all give me an idea, an insight or just a hopeful feeling that I can mull over during the day. I wish I had had these nuggets of wisdom to encourage me when my children were young!"

"I wake up every day to a message from Marguerite Kelly delivered to my phone by I Live Inspired. Reading her insightful and witty tips on parenting is both motivating and refreshing. I feel like she's right there in the room...After four months I couldn't be more pleased. I look forward to every message, delivered for me at the stroke of 7:00am. Receiving inspirational messages has been a wonderfully rewarding experience."

" With the stress and pressure of work, I often look for some sort of inspiration to help me through the day or even just a meeting. The 'Fearless' messages I receive every morning give me confidence with some of the tasks I have at work that I have feared in the past. I have even re-read messages before I have given important presentations. They pump me up for the day and are a valuable part of my routine. "

" I like getting the messages at the same time each day...and I read them to my fellow co-workers. The questions posed get each of us thinking and applying them to the different aspects of our job. (sometimes i don't want to even think about the answers) I like to take the inspirations and develop our thoughts further, keeping discussions informal as we work......making notes (or mind maps) on a big marker board and revisiting when needed."

"As a woman in the business world, I find it's easy to get caught up in the day to day grind. I thought that subscribing to I Live Inspired would help me slow down and think more strategically about my career decisions - it has done much more than that - it's given me perspective. I've set up my messages to be delivered in the morning. Each day I read them and find myself motivated to start the day and accomplish the tasks at hand. Beyond that, the messages have helped me to more effectively assert myself in the workplace. They've helped me to re-think how my decision making each day directly affects the successes and failures in my professional life. For me, it's a great business tool and I would encourage any woman in the workforce to subscribe to this channel."

"I choose to receive my messages right about the time I arrive at work. Having that moment gives each day a purpose, a center. I especially love the 4-day cycle of reflection and action the messages are built around. Getting this message each day has changed me in less than 6 months. Each day builds on the last, making my life more peaceful and making me a better person."

"My daily parenting message offers practical advice I can use to tackle the daunting responsibility I have for shaping the lives of my children. But what I really love is that while daily stresses - work, bills, relationships, etc. etc. - keep building up and weighing on my mind and heart, it brings me back to a state of gratitude for the two greatest gifts in my life (Michael and Mary)."
- Michael Mita, Inspired Parenting Community Member
"Often times I don't have time in the morning to read from my devotional book or from my Bible. Getting an encouraging text message in the morning has helped get my attitude in focus for what I will face that day. I often feel challenged and encouraged by the message that is sent to me every day at exactly 8am!! Thanks for the great service!!"

"More often than you could ever expect, a message comes through that couldn't possibly be a coincidence. It's a message you need on that day at that time in your life; An answer to a question you might not even know your heart's been asking; or a wake up call to a responsibility, opportunity, or gift in your life you've been looking right past."
- Lee C., Inspired Parenting Community Member
"I signed up for ILiveInspired because I really believe in the philosophy of the messages and the founders. I strive to have higher expectations for myself, better perceptions of myself and to be a more genuine person to the ones I love; with the texts I get a reminder of this everyday! I just started graduate school in Special Education and I think the awareness I’ve learned with these messages will help me in the classroom and will empower me to be a better teacher. It’s been great the last few months watching the little changes in myself and I look forward to the upcoming messages!"
- Katie M., Esteemable Acts Community Member
"When I wake up everyday before I head to my school, I read my quote and it makes me stop and think about how my actions will affect those around me and also to really try to put less pressure on myself and to let my higher power take care of that which I cannot control. The quotes help to center me."

“I have a one month old baby boy and really appreciate getting the messages daily. Even though he is so young, each message gives me a lot to think about. They encourage me to be a great mother now and far into the future. They give helpful tips that reassure me that I can and will help him be as successful as he can as he ventures through life."
