It’s your birthday today – because you are (in)courage.
Happy Birthday to you! Two full, fun-flavored years!
Here’s to sweet, beautiful, chocolate cupcake and community lovin’ you!
It’s been a year of starting a new spot for our community to connect, a book club for everyone to join, and guest posts on a regular basis.
And have we ever got a present to celebrate you in style! It’s so big it’s going to take us 30 full days to unwrap.
Yup, layer by layer and day by day we’re going to be letting you in on the biggest, yummiest secret we’ve cooked up on (in)courage yet!
We’re counting down to September 9th and the big reveal of something brand new and deliciously (in)couraging.
Our 30 contributors can barely contain their excitement. So over the next 30 days, they’ll be slipping you 30 reasons why they’re psyched about what’s coming on September 9th.
Here’s a sneak peek from me about why what’s coming is going to be so phenom(in)al!
Any guesses?

I can hardly imagine exactly what this means……but anything involving the ocean is a total win! 🙂
Somehow, in some way, you’re going to bring us all together…don’t know exactly what or how…maybe not physically, but maybe so?
Need the next clue! 🙂
Agree with Christin. whatever it is, it sounds fun and exciting!!!
Can’t wait to hear and hopefully it means a retreat/conference/trip!!!!!

A beach house retreat … yes please!
Cannot wait to hear about this and it sounds like one awesome rockin beach party with a bunch of women to encourage each other and to love one another and no sleeping.
Whooo Whooo lets go I am in.

Ohhh wow! I can hardly wait to find out! I’m thinking some kind of yearly conference? Would be amazing!
Happy, happy birthday! I’m so glad God has blessed us all with (in)courage!!
Oohhh! This has encouragement potential written alllll over it!!
Looks like a girlfriend get-together! sounds great!!!
All of those hints look like an great time!
hmmm…. I think you are going to have an Incourage retreat or conference. That is my guess.
Keep the clues coming- can’t wait
(in)courage is giving away a beach-house? Say Whaaaat. 🙂
An (in)Courage Cruise? Why not, everyone else is doing it.
Is it a trip? Yippeeeee! 🙂
A trip to the beach house – to meet the (in)courage team …. And…. Maybe a live webcast event for everyone – a cyber slumber party ?????
Happy Birthday! Looks like a beach getaway/retreat… could it be?
I’m with the retreat guessers! Beach house retreat give-away or meet/greet!
Any of the above or related would be awesome 🙂
I can’t wait to find out!
Sounds like a retreat to me, too! Whatever it is, it will be perfect — and amazing! Love this!! 🙂
I am believing this is for ME!! Today is MY birthday!! And, I live in SC (isn’t that at Hilton Head?!) And, I’m a part of DaySpring…a Blessings Unlimited Consultant!
Super, incredible, HAS to be for ME, retreat! 🙂
oH WOW! Whatever it is, it sounds so exciting! I would love to visit the beach house. I’m thinking that it has something to do with a conference or ladies weekend or something. It all sounds delicious! Can’t wait.
If it’s a road trip to a gorgeous beach house, I am SO IN!
It sounds very exciting! Maybe it’s a way to keep all members together. I sometimes feel a little left out living ‘downunder’.
Methinks there is a beach trip coming up! : )
A conference or retreat? I’d be sooo down with that 🙂
…or maybe location-based community spots??
I love the beach, painted toe nails, girlfriend time…
but I am such a pessimist, I figure whatever it is, I won’t be able to do it!
looking forward to more clues anyway!!
Don’t bet the farm on that, Julie Anne! You very well may be able to do it!
Oh whatever it is… I’m so in! I have been so blessed by (in)courage! I can’t wait!!
happy birthday to us, happy birthday to us, happy birthday dear uuuuuusssss. happy birthday to us. 🙂
ooooooo Are the {in}courage girls taking a bike tour across the US to come visit us all?!?!
Retreat at Prince Edward Island or Martha’s Vineyard or some yummy place like that?!
A beach house getaway? I am so excited!
whatever it is, I am certian I want to be a part of it….. So exciting!!
I am new to this blog and I love it! I wish I could spend all day looking at it!@

A beach house retreat would be ahhh-mazing! 🙂 I do love the idea of small groups, too… what fun it would be, a girls’ night in with incourage! Can’t wait to see more clues!
Tell me more, tell me more …
Oh boy…..a retreat? No, a conference? Ok, maybe a grand prize of a guest stay at the beach?
Or could it be….we’re going to do some WEBINAR events?
Garsh! I don’t know.
BUT COUNT ME IN!!! PLEASE?
Already enjoying watching the 30 days of guessing. 🙂
Planes and trains overrated? I’m thinking it’s a cruise. 🙂
A retreat/conference
maybe a cruise? maybe small groups?…….Excited to see what it’ll be!! 🙂
So many ideas in my head, retreat, conference, girls get-a-way, (in)courage (in)person…

Sept is the month we are moving back stateside (live in Papua New Guinea now).. so i would love conference, retreat, anything to connect with all you wise hearted women whose post I have been reading and occasionally commenting on. will wait with an excited heart for further details.
Excited as I said for #2 ………will be living in states as of Sept 4th. After a very hard year serving in Papua New Guinea my personal prayer has been..refresh me Lord…please. Again I am excited, this could be refreshment coming my way….
So excited to see what it might be…anything involving friends and the beach sounds amazing.
Local meet-ups, chapters, per se, a la shared meals & hearts?
