First, a national women’s magazine, is doing a story for the holidays (yes! Already! These things take time, you know.), and has asked me to see if anyone here fits the bill. You know you do. Interested parties can reply directly to .

For our holiday issue, we are looking for women who found a way to feel better about themselves and particularly their bodies with a holiday or family tradition. For example, volunteering at a food shelter, handing out toys to the needy, going ice skating with the kids, etc. Women who are selected for this story will likely be professionally photographed, which means professional hair styling and makeup application. If anyone is interested they can email me their name, age, city/state, current photo, and a paragraph about their story.

Obviously, I can’t reply. Remember the last time I took the kids ice skating? Or even better, roller skating? Hoo boy, that was fun. Whiplash on Christmas Eve. And then me, three kids, and a deranged woman in the ER all night 48 hours later.
