Our Great Big Thank Yous

by Heather on May 18, 2013

We’re two weeks from our phenomenal show in OKC, and we are still flying high from the experience. We’d be completely remiss to not give one final shout out to our national and local sponsors:

2013 Sponsor Jpeg

BlogHer and One2One Network are national sponsors, providing support to all 24 shows in the 2013 season. Without their support this nationwide movement would move at a much slower pace.

Locally, we had several sponsors that stepped up and said they’d love to bring the Listen To Your Mother show to Oklahoma City this year. We couldn’t have done it without Sara Sara Cupcakes, Maestro, Juiceblendz, Edmond Family Chiropractic, Norwalk Furniture, Girl Scouts of Western Oklahoma, Continental Resources, The Wedge Pizzeria, Bedford Video, Ben Herrington Art and Dr. Carl Dias.

Because of their generosity, we were able to put on a show that evoked laughter, tears, sighs, thoughts, nods of affirmation and head shakes in astonishment.

Again, thank you to our national and local sponsors–you helped us all do this:

We Had No Idea

May 2, 2013

“This is going to be amazing!” Misti gushed when we all sat together in her living room at our very first planning meeting. Julie & I nodded and may have even said, “Oh, yeah.” But the truth is this: We had no idea. We got the written submissions and weeded through them. Once again, Misti said, “This is going to be awesome.” Once again, Julie and I nodded and I’m certain one of us said, “Yes. Yes it is.” Still, we had no idea. We had our live auditions and started the day with butterflies in our bellies for the daunting task of putting stories together to form a show. Little did we know that the show would put itself together. We left that afternoon and Misti sighed, “This is going to be incredible.” Julie and I nodded and murmured, “Amen.” Yet, we had no idea. Last week–just one week until show time–we [...]

They Said Yes

May 1, 2013

When asked to support a brand-new-to-Oklahoma-City show called Listen To Your Mother, we had several companies that said Yes. They said Yes they’d love to support Infant Crisis Services. They said Yes they’d love to be a part of this nation-wide movement as it makes its way into Oklahoma. They said Yes they’d love to take a leap of faith and jump on board this inaugural production. They said Yes they’d love to be associated with amazing stories of motherhood. They said Yes. These organizations have made it so much easier for Listen To Your Mother to be the force that it is becoming in Oklahoma City. If you have a chance to support them with your business, please say yes.

It’s More Than A Great Show

April 29, 2013

On Sunday, we’re not just going to be sharing stories of motherhood in one fashion or another during our the debut Listen To Your Mother Show–Oklahoma City, we’ll be bringing Infant Crisis Services into the spotlight as well. Infant Crisis Services, Inc of Oklahoma City provides life-sustaining formula, food and diapers to babies and toddlers in times of crisis … because no baby should go hungry. Astonishingly, Infant Crisis Services serves more than 1,200 infants and toddlers in Central Oklahoma in just one month. At least–at least–10% of ticket profits will go to Infant Crisis Services. Additionally, we’d like to invite everyone who attends the show on Sunday to bring diapers with them–any size, any brand–those will also be donated to Infant Crisis Services, Inc. as well. After the show, cast members Jennifer McMurrain and Heather Davis will be selling and signing their books with $1 of each book going to Infant Crisis [...]
