Many of you have heard the news by now that Project Mom is casting mom bloggers for an upcoming reality show. You can submit your own entry by July 26th. So here you will find my audition for this project, a story I am so proud to share. Whether you are an avid Theta Mom reader or a vistor for the first time, I hope you enjoy learning a little more about the woman behind this blog. {And I would love, love, love for you to either leave a comment here, retweet and/or like this post on Facebook – I really appreciate your support!}
This is me. This is my voice.
Good for you!! Guess you had a major change of heart over the weekend, huh? Me too…I chickened out after your email! LOL! Fingers crossed for ya!
Haha – Yes, I thought about what YOU said and any opportunity is worth trying in this crazy bloggy world – so here goes nothing!
Wow, great job!! A reality show with bloggers? That sounds awesome! Good luck to you!
I love it! I haven’t heard about this reality show, but it sounds intriguing.
It is amazing how motherhood makes our lives change in ways we never could predict.
I agree Katherine, my vision for what I thought I wanted has changed over the years and my kids have a lot to do with that!!
Great job heather! It’s awesome! I hope I can finish mine in time but I am crossing my fingers for you! Yeah mama! Dream Big!
You HAVE to dream big mama!!
xo
Yay Heather! I would sooooo cast you in one hot second. Well done, love it and love you (but you already know that)!
Wow, I haven’t heard of this! You’d be great. I looked into it, and it sounds like they’re looking for more established bloggers than me! Oh well!
Best of luck to you!
Cheryl, I don’t think so – they said newbie and veteran bloggers are ALL welcome!
Great work! I am so glad you shared a little glimpse into the “real you”. Best of luck!
I love that I was able to share this “real” side of me with you – thanks for wathching.
Great job! I hope you get picked.
I love it! Best of luck, I hope you are picked!
What a great application video!
I would be happy to have you representing us bloggers on a show! =)
Thanks Tracie!! Representing Theta Moms!
Nicely done! Thanks for sharing a little more about you and good luck!!
Awesome video!!!! You so deserve to be on this show!!! I wrote an application post as well- though I figure mine is a shot in the dark. So incredibly bummed that I will not be at BlogHer.
Thanks so much C. Mom!
Go THETAMOM GO!
very cool. Good luck!
hope you get picked heather!!
Me, too mama!! Thanks for watching!
Well done! I wish you the best and look forward to hearing more about it!
I thought you did a good job! And I wish you the best of luck in getting picked. You’ll have to keep everyone posted! : ) I’d watch a reality show with bloggers.
Good luck to you!
Good luck and well done. Interesting show, I’ll definitely be watching.
Wow! Awesome job…good luck, you deserve it and I love your vision and mission.
Thanks so much Melissa – I think this is the kind of mission that resonates with ALL moms, I would love to represent us!
You are a shoe in Heather! That was awesome. Good luck!
A shoe in, you are sweet! MrsBlogAlot, I’m just hoping for an interview at BlogHer, that would be awesome!
Great job!!
Nicely done, isn’t it strange how life can take you in directions you never thought possible. Wish you the best luck.
KIm, EXACTLY the point of the video and I am so glad that it is percevied this way – I had those big dance dreams and when that didn’t work out, I chased another dream and once I was there I thought my career was my passion until I was married and raised a family – my “dreams” took on new form – thanks SO much for watching!!
Great job Heather! It seems to me your dream is definitely becoming reality! You have a fantastic mission and an amazing following. Good luck!
Wow, thanks Becca! I love that so many of resonate with that mission.
Great job! You have such a calming voice – you would be great for the part. Its funny how life can take you in a direction you never imagined. I believe having kids opens a whole new light and has given me possibilities I have never dreamed of. Good luck, I will be crossing my fingers for you!
Fingers and toes crossed for you, you have the cute factor going for you too – ALL important on TV
What a new incredible world I have stepped into and have not even got my feet wet yet … thank you for paving the way for the rest of us – Good Luck!
Tina, It’s so funny because I always said I don’t like the SOUND of my voice but LOVE what I have to say! 😉 Thanks so much for your support.
Great video!! Best of luck to you!!
You rock mama!
I thought it was inspiring! Sending you support!!!!! Good luck!
Inspiring, I love that! Thank you!
I really love it! Great audition tape! And it was great to hear your voice!
Wow, great audition video. It’s really nice to finally have a voice go along with the face and the blog. I feel that much more connected. Wish you the best of luck. I think that you would make a great addition to the show because you have inspired so many through your blog.
Thanks so much YUMMommy!!
Heather, what an amazing video! You have been such an inspiring source of support for so many people, there is truly no one who deserves this more! I can’t imagine you not being cast- you’re the perfect fit!
That means a lot Ashley!!
kudos!! I think you totally deserve it…you go!
This is a great audition! You would be a great fit because you have a really nice speaking voice: very clear and crisp! I would LOVE it if you made it on so I could be all pointy and yelly to everyone about how I “know” you!!!
Thanks Katie! I could get used to it. 😉
Good luck! I’d love to see you make it–you deserve it. And you’re brave–I hate my speaking voice (and I have to hear it a lot listening to tapes of public meetings at work! Yuck!)
It’s funny because I don’t necessarly like the SOUND of my voice but LOVE what I have to say! 😉
GREAT JOB on your video! You know I’m a regular reader, but it was nice to get to know you even more through that. Good luck – I think you would be great!
First, your video was wonderful — I hope you are picked for the show! I think you would be an awesome representative of the Mom Blogging
community. You have been so creative and diligent in helping so many other bloggers, not to mention you are a great writer with compelling content — how could they NOT pick you!?
Second, I have sent you a bag of virtual school supplies! Nope, not spammin’ you – come on over and check out this great way to help kids: http://abrokencompass.com/2010/07/26/elmers-virtual-bag-it-forward/
Thanks, I’ll have to check that out!
Oh so much fun! Best of luck my friend. Can we vote to help out at all? Be sure to let us know!
I don’t think it’s based on votes – I think they are selecting some bloggers for interviews in NYC…but I’ll let you know if there is voting!!
wish i could hear it but the volume is super low; checked my settings and they’re fine. i could hear other you tube videos ok
Bummer you couldn’t hear it, the sound is fine on my end – perhaps turn the volume up on the video itself?
Loved the video, Heather! I would be suprised, truly, if you didn’t get the gig. You are the whole package, girlfriend! ;0)
wonderful post friend!!! awesome!!
Your audition is wonderful! It was a joy to learn a bit more about the woman behind the blog! I am so glad to be a part of your community because your goal and drive to help and support other mother’s is an amazing thing! Good luck with your audition! I’m sending lots of good vibes your way
