Heidi's LemonAid Stand

Shownotes Transcript

Originally aired September 11, 1999! It is a bad quality recording, that has survived 21 years on a cassette tape, but the message is great…. and needed more than ever!

The recording has been edited to take out commercials, names, and phone numbers as it was originally a “call-in” live radio broadcast!

The LemonAid Stand was live on the radio for one year! It only stopped because I stopped it. I started this show because I was negative, feeling sorry for myself, and in a bad place. I had a friend tell me that she didn’t want to be around me anymore because I was such a downer. I started looking around and noticing that others were going through hard things as well! I was personally struggling with infertility and was making everyone around me miserable because I was miserable. I noticed that other people were dealing with really hard issues, and they were making a difference…making the world better! That is how the radio show began. Then it ended a year later when I gave birth to my last child. My miracle. 

This radio show made the struggle of infertility all that much better by getting my mind off of myself! I hope it will help others be able to gain a better perspective as well. 

Now 21 years later my baby is all grown up and I’m an empty nester ready to revive my beloved radio shows, and thanks to technology the "old skool" radio show recordings can be broadcast into podcasts!

So ignore the static and the glitches and really hear the message of this episode: Are you important? Are you needed?
