Growing Bolder Insider Vol. 4
As the summer winds down here at the worldwide headquarters of Growing Bolder, we're gearing up for a busy fall. We can't wait to share all the things we're learning with you, the Insiders. We're putting the finishing touches on an online community that you'll want to hang out in. And soon, we're going to let you Insiders inside to see for yourselves! But in the meantime, click on the photo on the left. There, we'll bring you up to date on what we're up to this week.
GBTV: Back To Our Roots
This week, the Growing Bolder gang returns to our old stomping grounds of WESH-TV in Orlando. It's a great place to work, filled with some very talented people. Take a behind-the-scenes look as GB President Marc Middleton tapes a welcome video for the homepage of GrowingBolder.com and find out what happens when there's too many anchors on the set.
GB Radio
Despite many bouts with cold reality she never let go of her warm philosophy. Naomi Judd believes people matter. No matter who they are. In a frank, comical and passionate interview, Naomi bared her soul on the Growing Bolder Radio Show. She also threatened to bare her "little white country butt!" She's a true survivor and has successfully reinvented herself yet again. This time she's an author instead of a singer. And her new book, "Naomi's Guide to Aging Gratefully," strikes the perfect chord with us!
Boom-Art
Sometimes the story of where you are isn't nearly as interesting as how you got there. Glenn Rogers has lots of great stories. He's been everything from an actor to a writer to a clown, with a couple of dozen other careers in between. Along the way, he's unlocked many of the secrets of life, and he's anxious to share. His latest project is the creation of a whole new category of art. Boom-Art is catching on across the nation. Click the photo to see his real store, then click here to visit his virtual store!
In the next Growing Bolder Insider Newsletter: The president of TV Land, the only TV network that "gets it" steps up to the GB Radio mics to explain why his network has become the coolest place on the tube. Plus, it's a Growing Bolder Intergenerational Face-Off as GB staffer Jackie Carlin challenges TV theme song savant Bill Shafer in a special edition of "Name That TV Tune."
