New "Leading Edge" TV show seeks to shift mainstream view from Supermom to sane, centered parent5/6/2013
(Insert Movie Announcer Voice Here) In a world, where shocking tales of the horrors of pregnancy and parenting abound in the media, one woman stood above the crowd and said: There is a gentler way. (Okay, so there's a lot of us around, but wiggling our ways into the mainstream audience is difficult!) Photo courtesy of BeingMom.tv “It’s [parenting] not about being perfect,” Sarah Ripard said. “It’s about striving and fine-tuning parenting choices that honor me (you) and definitely our children.” While some of us, like me!, are plugging away behind our computer screens, Ripard works tirelessly to create and host a new mainstream TV series called “BEING MOM with Sarah Ripard” to take these hard to find topics from facebook and get them onto mainstream television screens across the nation. According to the Website, “Each episode will present practical information, introduce its audience to innovative products and services while offering insights and global perspectives on parenting today.” To make her self-produced vision a reality, “Being Mom with Sarah Ripard” needs financial assistance and thus has started a fundraising campaign on IndieGoGo to raise at least $20,000. Ripard has the entertainment experience and contacts behind her, but needs this fundraiser so the show can reach mainstream airwaves without important information and dialogues being replaced with more “shocking” or unrealistic clips. The main problem with today’s media, she told me in a recent phone conversation, is that “very few shows get to own their own material, Oprah Winfrey being one of them.” Ripard’s goal is to *not* be bought out by anyone, and instead be able to control her own content and information which can enlighten and appeal to all ages from pre-conception to grandparenting within her transformative audience. Ripard’s IndieGoGo campaign has eight contribution levels, complete with perks ranging from a Thank You listing on both the Website and Facebook pages (think: a great way to promote your business for my business minded friends!) to a full VIP package with an invitation to be on the set of Being Mom for one day, personalized/signed copies of books & videos and of course much more! According to the IndieGoGo page, “Being Mom” already has a USA national network willing to air the talk show once they can produce and deliver its needed 26 episodes. “There has been an enormous amount of demand from parents, organizations, media and individuals for BEING MOM to air because of its meaningful, evolutionary and creative content.” You could be a part in getting this show up and running in our mainstream airwaves to help shift the mainstream view of parenting from Supermom to Sane and Centered mom.
