In-Person Extras
Take advantage of all these special opportunities at the in-person conference experience.
Get Published as a Collaborative Author!
Writers who meet deadlines, follow submission guidelines, and submit to the editing process will be chosen for inclusion in a book titled, El ro’I: The God Who Sees, published by Living Parables, an imprint of EABooks Publishing, making them “published” authors. Authors can purchase books at a reduced rate and keep the profit from their sales. Deadline July 8, 2024, midnight.
Get A Free Professional Color Analysis
As a speaker and/or writer, knowing your best colors will make you shine on stage. As a representative of Christ, our first impression does matter. We should never be held back by a lack of confidence in how we dress or put ourselves together.
During the Speak Up Conference, Holly Gort, owner of BeYOUtiful Image Consulting LLC., will be providing FREE color analysis.
Attendees may also purchase a personalized color swatch deck and style guide for $35 and a copy of The Closet Outfit Planner for $39, created by Shari Braendel and Style By Color.
