BOLD London this week!

Hi,
I am so pumped right now. We are hosting BOLD Action events this week in London and the journey to get here has been one of the most amazing of my life. I have met so many incredible women and opened up relationships with fabulous people in our local theatre scene.

We are set to host a Red Tent Event for mothers this Sunday at a local Yoga Centre. We then have a performance of Karen Brody's play BIRTH on Thursday. All proceeds are going to a local program that supports women who are pg and substance using. Advance tickets have been flying and I have had a number of media hits including spots on radio and TV!! We have had such a great response on sponsorship from some really surprising sources and incredible reaction from the community. One of the best parts has been getting to know the cast and crew for the play. They are all volunteers and the women of BIRTH are just as committed to the mission of "Supporting Childbirth Choices that Work for Women" as our organizing committee is. You should hear these ladies birth sounds, they literally make my body ache with the feeling of giving birth.

I just needed to share as I am about to burst right now with excitement I am feeling so BOLD and am loving all the BOLD women and cast who have been doing this with me.

Wish us loads of BOLD luck this week and I will share how it all goes down!

Good luck and congrats on being BOLD! We just had an amazing run of "Birth" in Nashville. It was really fun - and I'm so proud to have had the opportunity to be a part of it! Have a blast!
