Angela Lewis Editor in Chief iSHINE Magazine MATTHEW SANTANA, JR. From the Editors’ Desk A NOTE FROM THE EDITORS 7.31.21 is officially \"The iShine Magazine Launch and iShine Awards Xperience.\" It seems surreal as we prepare to present our dream to the world. iShine Magazine is a curated publication designed to showcase winners, influencers, entrepreneurs, authors, and artists who are impacting and influencing the community and the world. If you have that IT Factor, this magazine is for you. It will resonate with you because, fundamentally, you recognize the greatness in yourself and others. You have shifted your mindset to realize that we are powerful beyond measure. It is when we shine that we serve the world. When we shine, we draw others to the possibility that they were meant to shine too. In this issue, we present our inaugural i.S.H.I.N.E. Award Recipients. These men and women are trailblazers in their respective industries. Each of our recipients \"S.H.I.N.E.\" at high levels and thrive in making positive impacts in the lives of others. The success in their areas of influence is evoking much- needed change (mind, body, and soul) in our culture as well as our community. One of my favorite poems is by Marianne Williamson, \"Our Deepest Fear.\" One of the lines in the poem says, \" It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.\" We can no longer be afraid of who we were created to be. Mediocrity should not be the socially accepted standard. Genius should be the norm, not the exception. It is time to shift our mindsets to normalize being brilliant. No longer can we diminish our standards or dim our light to appease others. We must be our authentic selves and shine bright for the world to see. UNAPOLOGETICALLY.

Networking is Crucial! In my capacity as a business coach, I encounter so many entrepreneurs who still believe networking is all about selling and persuading everyone that what you have will change the world. While selling is still important with customers, networking with colleagues and investors is still about developing relationships, listening to others' needs, and recommending a win-win situation. What’s your best piece of advice for readers who desire to find success in their life? Only you can define success. What success looks like for me may be different for you. However, whatever that picture of success is for you, put it in your mind. See it, feel it, and then go after it, and don’t let “No’s” stop you. Speaking of success, what does the word mean to you? Success is finding that place of joy in all aspects of your life. It is living the life you envisioned for yourself and finding balance in achieving your goals. Success is achieving what you set out to do but knowing that all things unfold in divine timing. Meaning what is for you is for you, and you will achieve your goals with the help of God, focus, intention, integrity, a great work ethic, and faith in God and yourself. Shift your Mindset for Success • Change your Self-Talk. ... • Change your Language. ... • Determine the mindset you need and act as if. ... • Identify & overcome your Personal Mental Blocks. ... • Learn & apply... • Surround yourself with people that match your desired mindset. ... • Create new habits to support your mindset change.

She is the Daughter of The Most High. Beautifully and Wonderfully Made! Monica was born in Petersburg, Virginia; the only girl out of 4 and the baby to a family that awaited her arrival! She was raised on the premise of \"right is right and wrong is wrong\", regardless of who is doing the act. She is a firm believer in the motto, \" if you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything\". One of the biggest lessons she learned from her mother is to deliver the truth straight, with no chaser. Don't let her sweet, charming exterior fool you; underneath there are broken pieces and fragments that time, unfortunately, may never mend. Monica is a mother of 2, which she prides herself on having raised in the same love, light and knowledge she has gained through the years. She's an entrepreneur and a social media personality, credited as co-Founder of Behind Closed Doors and Wine at 9, as well as the creator of Sweet Tea With Gee. Her years have granted wisdom that she revels in being able to share. 26 | iSHINE M A G A Z I N E

Miki Riley: Miki Riley The Fabulous Protection Professional Licensed Insurance Professional, Inspirational Entrepreneur, Speaker, Founder and Author of the Fabulous 40 & Over Club I know all too well the importance of protecting your finances during an emergency. I lost my mother to Breast Cancer at the age of 21. My mother was only 45 years old when she passed. Not only did I physically take care of her until she passed, I also had to manage and close down her business during the course of her illness. The financial strain it caused on my family at the time was tremendous. I personally did not have a voice to talk about this portion of my life’s journey until years later when I found out Cancer Insurance existed. Many of us are totally unprepared when serious circumstances such as accidents or illness arise in our lives. Most of us live to see another day however the financial stress and anxiety can make our journey to recovery more arduous. Now let me tell you what happened to me. Not long after moving to Georgia from Chicago, right after purchasing my home, right after the stress of becoming self published (after paying a publisher who took advantage of me), right after launching my “The Fabulous 40 & Over Club” book and membership club at The Essence Festival in New Orleans, the morning of my 41st Birthday, I was rushed to the emergency room, admitted into the hospital and diagnosed with a suspected mini-stroke. The weeks and months afterward was an uphill battle. But I tell you, Every day I Awaken I praise God! And I have made it my mission (not only to bring women together through my efforts with The Fabulous 40 & Over Club/FAB Project)but to provide financial protection for as many people as I can. It is my Purpose & Passion! Contact me: [email protected] www.combinedinsurance.com/Mikica-day-riley 40 | P a g e “ O W N I T ! ” M A G A Z I N E
