As you may remember, I was on live TV on October 3rd. I promised to post the link for those of you who missed it. I waited and waited for the video link to my segment to show up on the TV channel’s website, but alas, it never did.
Waiting wasn’t very hard, because you know how patient I am! [Cue the maniacal laughter here...] *cough*
After an excruciating week of waiting, we decided to take matters into our own hands. So…we’ve done it ourselves! Without further ado, here is my Live TV Debut in Denver!
Finally, you get to see the video! There were no wardrobe malfunctions! I didn’t burst into flames or hysterical laughter! And, Ana Cabrera pronounced my name correctly! Yay!
I think it went pretty well, considering we didn’t do a run-through of any kind, and I didn’t get any direction. A large portion of my life has been spent doing sales presentations, so I just went into that mode.
Somehow I remembered to smile, breathe, and not play with my hair too much. (Had I known exactly where the camera was going to be, I would have stood on the other side of Ana. My hairstyle would have been a little more cooperative that way, but that’s okay.) I didn’t have to worry about my posture, because the little mic-pack they had me strap on was poking me in the back! (Getting ready for Live TV could be a blog-post in and of itself!)
Over all, it was a blast! I had so much fun doing it. It was over in a blur, and I’m so glad I had the chance to experience it.

Great job! You’re a natural. I need the Baby Briefcase.
Oh you did great! This is very good, you\’re a natural, and interesting product recommendations too. Good Job!
You were awesome!!!!!!!!!
Big congrats!!!
That was a great segment! Informative, and you sound great. I always think I’m talking too much, too quickly, and too high-pitched whenever I’m in a situation like this!
Oooh, I want that other blog post on getting ready for Live TV.
This sounds like a perfect moment, btw.
Was just looking through old blog posts, and found a comment from you way back when
I know exactly what you mean about it being over in a blur; we went on live TV in the UK a few years ago while setting out on our adoption journey – up at 4 in the morning, home by 10. It was bizarre.
JoAnn, you should be proud.
A star is born!
Bravo darling!!!!! Bravo!!!
Very professional, fun and awesome. What else would we expect from you! Yeah.
