Wildflower Promotions & Media Management

In 1993 my boss dropped the NYC Yellow Pages on my desk (5 books, 5 boroughs, 5 pounds of paper) and told me to start cold calling companies. I was WORDLESS. I was a brand new recruiter for an employment agency for people with disabilities and I had to learn quickly to find my words. It took months before I could make "an ask" without sweating first.

Fast forward to 2018, after years of advocating for others in different ways, Wildflower opened as a side hustle to continue giving a voice to those who needed support primarily with public relations. Entrepreneurs and small business owners who juggled launching a business- online and brick and mortar, inundated with "all the things" that starting a business drops on your lap like a stack of yellow pages while attempting to balance life and family, too. They needed the right words to make connections to media, influencers, potential collaborators, words that took time and energy to put together.

This photo below is one example of how my words opened a door and is one of my most cherished successes. If you're unfamiliar with Gary Vaynerchuk, do a quick Google search. He is the CEO of VaynerX, author, speaker, and Internet celebrity. Yep, I am also in that photo taken during a zoom call. Short version- I invited GaryVee to be a guest on a podcast for a former client and he said yes.

Finding the right words can be exhausting when you've got everything else to manage. There are only so many hours in a day. If you need support finding words and ways to connect with media and influencers give me a shout. I've got the words ready to ask anyone for anything.

Meet Belle , one of my closest friends on the other side of the world. Belle released her first book yesterday and I cannot be more excited for her. I knew even before we met in Vegas a while ago we were going to be fast friends.. . then we zoomlined down Freemont St 11 stories above the ground with Julia Kerr. Our time zone differences work almost perfectly, and her book is sure to be a perfect addition to your reading list. Learn more about Belle and her book Awkward Is The New Brave. Cant wait for the book tour!!

What a journey this year has been! I am so grateful for everyone I have met and worked with in 2018! I had taken a little hiatus while acclimating to my new position at a local non-profit- that speaks to my heart in ways I cannot describe, and I am ready to kick start 2019 and support others as well.

Here's to 2019- may it be the most peaceful, wonderful, and inspiring year yet.

Farm Days kicks off on Saturday, September 15 at Old McDonald's Farm in Sale Creek, and is a family-friendly fall event steeped in history at the oldest family-owned farm in Hamilton County. Kids will enjoy a one-of-a-kind, outdoor experiences, and all funds raised will help preserve and maintain the McDonald Farm’s rich traditions for future generations to enjoy.

Open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sundays, Noon to 7 p.m. through October, families can experience pony rides and bounce pads, corn cribs to play in, slides that shoot out from haylofts onto bales of hay below, a little critter barn with a miniature horse, goats, chickens and more. Gem mining, corn mazes, cow coaster rides, the gourd slingshot, and the pumpkin patch are also longtime favorites of guests and farm life educational activities are set-up too.

Admission is $12.50 per person with a small charge for some of the special activities like gem mining and the gourd slingshot. Farm Days is ideal for families with children ages 3-10 and offers several photo spots around the property for fun family portraits. The farm also houses the Calf-A where refreshments can be purchased.

“We’re so happy to be able to open our farm each year so that other families can enjoy this place that we’ve cherished for so long,” said Clay McDonald, a seventh-generation McDonald. “ It always brings a smile to our face to see young children enjoying the farm – learning about where their food comes from, petting a baby goat, or just having a blast sliding down our giant slides. I’ll be bringing our 3-month old daughter, Alice, to the farm this fall for the first time, and I hope every kid in the region gets to experience it.”

Old McDonald Farm is located at 16705 Coulterville Road, Sale Creek, TN 37373. To get there from Chattanooga: Drive north on Highway 27, taking the split to the right toward Dayton. After 9.8 miles, turn left onto the north entrance to Coulterville Road; you'll see the McDonald Farm sign right before the Rhea County line. Follow Coulterville Road a short distance, and the farm is on your right. Parking is available in the field.
