Congrats to my home state Kentucky on the big win this week!!! Yay! It was extra special for me this year, as the last two weeks were filled with interviews of celebrities FROM Ky (by coincidence) for my show Who’s On Deck. I had Joan Osborne on the deck, and then last week Montgomery Gentry. We did a fun UK cheer for the team and the fans – if you missed it, it’s here. The show will air in a few weeks, so stay tuned or check us out at Who’s On Deck!
Hope your spring is a beauty – it’s amazing here in NYC!

I’m not very patient, I’ll admit. If I had it my way I’d have tomorrow be today. But wait, it is, isn’t it? Anyway, I continue to learn the lesson in patience (by force) and am constantly amazed at the stress I put on myself because that’s what I choose. A few weeks ago I was waiting to find out what’s happening with my show Who’s On Deck, I was training and getting to know a new intern, trying to finish another project and on and on. I was choosing to be anxious about the future and not in the moment. As it turns out, all of my anxiety was a waste – my show got the green light for the 2nd season (yay!), my intern is fabulous, we’re in full swing for production and I finished the other project. I look back and question why I’d spend any time, much less days, stressing over things that hadn’t even proven themselves bad – it’s just not good for my life!
My goal for this spring, for the 2nd season of www.WhosOnDeck.tv and for everything I do is to do it without stress – or at least with less. To consciously choose not to worry, to be aware or and tame any anxiety. To just be in the moment, enjoy it and carry on giving life my best.
Thanks for watching our show, for your feedback, your encouragement and friendship. Let me know what projects you’re working on and I’ll be there in support!

As the year winds down and the new year begins, what a wonderful time to reflect on the progress of our lives. It’s easy to look in our bank accounts to measure success, but is that the most accurate gauge? I doubt it.
Take a few moments to review your relationships, the attempts at your dreams, the mistakes that caused great pain and hopefully learning, the steps towards banishing your fears or perhaps a new-found joy that comes only with maturity and understanding. Sure, there’s plenty of resolutions to make, lots of things we claim we need to change in the New Year. These often turn into a self-bashing session of why we aren’t good enough. Yes, it’s good to have goals, but equally if not more importantly, its great to congratulate yourself on the things you have achieved, no matter how small. Some days I marvel that I’m still here and have new opportunities every moment. I’m in awe that I get to DO THIS – to live.
I’ve had a wonderfully challenging year. Creating a new show and brand for my company is far less than easy, but I’m glad I started. And because I started, there’s a full season of new TV Shows that just wrapped! I look forward to a new year with a new season and also look back to see a year full of success. The obvious highlights were interviewing great personalities like Deepak Chopra, The Naked Cowboy, Don Jamieson and 30 other fabulous people, but the highlights most people see are the results of much labor coming to fruition with a group of talented people that we can now view on the screen. Releasing creativity feels like a tremendous success to me.
I wish you the best year-end celebration, and a New Year full of surprises and realized dreams. Come visit us with our new show at www.whosondeck.tv! Happy 2012!!!

This is one of my favorite segments so far on Who’s On Deck. Not only was it fun to flirt, but David is such a good sport to arm wrestle, dance and more. Want to know more about The Bachelorette or The Bachelor Pad or reality TV in general? Hear it from the expert, winner David Good! It’s a quick 4 minutes and worth the time.

If you want to see more great interviews, go to YouTube, Who’s On Deck or find us on Bliptv.com. Thanks for watching!

Another segment from Who’s On Deck, our new celeb talk series now airing on TV and online. Comedian Kyle Grooms joins me on the deck for some funny talk and a look inside the life of… He tours, he acts, he’s on TV and he’s Barack Obama. Watch as Kyle tries to teach Leah how to do a “stand-up”! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfnsPA9QI3g

We’re proud to have had VH1 Classic’s Host Don Jamieson (That Metal Show) on Who’s On Deck – he’s a funny guy and totally transformed me into a Metal Goddess! Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qf2Qm7OQprw

It’s been busy for a girl named guy! We are weeks away from launching the new TV show, Who’s On Deck. It’s an exciting time, albeit stressful! There are so many facets to producing a tv show, even a relatively “simple” one that’s shot on my deck doing celebrity and lifestyle interviews. Speaking of the deck, the set (and myself) recently moved so we’ll be doing the deck from a new and improved locale. It just may have inspired me to shoot on multiple decks around the country – who knows?! Gotta good deck? Let me know.
On the simpler side of things – good news for a lucky winner!! After recently unloading lots of bottles of Barlean’s Omega Swirl products on our readers, this month we are giving away a snazzy goodie bag from Nelson’s Pure and Clear skincare line! You can win by either signing up for my monthly newsletter Sage Advice, or get on Facebook with me and Fan our page to comment (A Girl Named Guy Productions). While you’re there, don’t forget to check out Who’s On Deck TV and fan that too! You’ll encounter a gentle breeze with all of the fanning. It will be blissful.
