I'm Giving Away a Pair of Tickets to the KC Listen to Your Mother Show

UPDATE: Congratulations to Jennifer Smith! You won the pair of LTYM tickets. I'll be emailing you shortly.

 

Last year, I had the huge honor of being part of the inaugural Kansas City cast of Ann Imig's national Listen to Your Mother Show. Reading my piece in front of an audience was incredible, but the life-changing part of the experience? The friendships branded the minute I met these women in Erin Margolin's basement for a read-through. 

You call me up, because you know I'll be there.

This year, I'm excited to sit in the audience with my girlfriends and let the experience wash over me. And I'm giving away a pair of tickets! Here are the details about the show:
