Five Minutes for Mom
Here it is, weeks after the event, but I'm just now posting about my adventures in San Francisco. I arrived there very late on Wednesday night, July 16th. The first thing I did on Thursday morning was meet up with the 5 Minutes for Mom Twins — Janice and Susan — for an interview.
This was a delightful way to spend a morning and a huge learning experience for me. It was by far the most formal interview I've taken part in — with a set, real lighting, multiple cameras, multiple takes, interview questions submitted early to ensure relevant conversation, even hair and makeup services. There's nothing like getting your nose powdered between takes to make you feel officially official.
Janice and Susan were such a treat. So enthusiastic about the interview. Endlessly interesting to talk with. I loved seeing them interact as both sisters and business partners. And I loved learning about their entrepreneurial history and discussing their new site redesign. What an inspiring, dynamic pair!
The interview with me was shot in four parts. You can see the first one here.
And you can get a glimpse of all the interviews by watching the trailer here.

Nice job! I look at Design Mom all the time, but haven't actually gotten over to your other site so I'll have to check it out.
I actually am commenting because I just wanted to say I have that same dress from Target and I love it! ;) That's silly, I know, but it is so cute!
You look so cute! You do a great interview- so poised and ladylike! Love getting the scoop on kirtsy!
