	<p>A few months ago my dad saw an ad for Buy Missouri and thought Bear Paw Creek would be a good fit. After reaching out to them and becoming an official member, the Ozarks Fox AM contacted us about doing a live TV Interview. While the opportunity was exciting, it was also slightly nerve-racking as it was our very first time showcasing Bear Paw Creek on live TV.</p>
<p>My mom, Janet, and I took some of our best selling music and movement products such as the <a href="https://musicandmovementproducts.com/shop/movement-props/bear-paw-creek-best-selling-stretchy-band-music-movement-prop/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Stretchy Band</a>, <a href="https://musicandmovementproducts.com/shop/movement-props/four-inch-square-bean-bags-active-play-many-colors-textures/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bean Bags</a>, and <a href="https://musicandmovementproducts.com/shop/movement-props/creative-movement-chiffon-scarf-kits/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Scarves</a>, and successfully did a live TV interview without making any embarrassing mistakes. <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="an1" src="https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/e/notoemoji/15.0/1f642/32.png" alt="&#x1f642;" width="24" height="24" data-emoji="&#x1f642;" aria-label="&#x1f642;" /></p>

	<p>First, a little bit more about Buy Missouri. The program was created by <a href="https://ltgov.mo.gov/buy-mo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Office of Lieutenant Governor</a> and is a national economic developmental initiative to actively promote to other states and the world the products that are grown, manufactured, processed, and/or made in Missouri. All products must have a 51% or greater Missouri content to qualify.</p>
<blockquote><p>Buy Missouri is an initiative created to recognize and promote Missouri companies and manufacturers to the public, and strengthen our state’s economy. The more we support and buy Missouri products, the better our entire state will do! Missouri has hundreds of products made within our borders. Our goal is to identify and compile these products so all Missourians, as well as the Nation will know, which will help our state. The Buy Missouri website was developed and designed in cooperation with <a href="https://www.sbuniv.edu/news-events/buy-missouri-initiative-sbu-molg.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Southwest Baptist University's Computer and Information Sciences Department</a> by a team of three students in the graduating class of 2018.</p></blockquote>

They also have a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@buymissouri4528" target="_blank" rel="noopener">YouTube channel</a> and can be found on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/BUYMISSOURI/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Facebook</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/buymissouri/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Instagram. </a></p>

	<p>I was excited to do my first guest interview this week! <a href="http://guitarsandgranolabars.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rachel Rambach over at Guitar and Granola Bars</a> interviewed me. This was a special honor, as her podcast is all about “Motherhood, Music Therapy, and Everything in Between.”  Out of her 32 interviews to this date, I’ll be the “one of these things is not like the other one”.  While I love to sew products FOR music therapists, I am for sure not in the league of being a music therapist.</p>
<p>I thought of a few things I wish I would have added or said differently, and I should have taken my sister’s advice and bought a better microphone.  <em><strong>Note to self: listen to big sis!</strong></em></p>
<p>Here are a few of things I wish I would have talked about.  I skipped over part of my work life that influenced me greatly. After moving to Alaska, I worked at Subway, a couple nanny positions, and then started working as a respite care provider for children with special needs.  After getting married, I also worked at a day care in the toddler room before having our first born son.  The people I met at these jobs, still influence me greatly today.</p>
<p>I also would add, that is helps me to remember that there are different seasons in our lives. I am working harder and longer hours now, than ever before.  But I expect it to be a season and have a great vision for the future of <a href="https://musicandmovementproducts.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bear Paw Creek</a>.</p>
<p><a href="https://soundcloud.com/guitars-granola-bars/episode-32-janet-stephens" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Here it is</a>.  Includes a special link to sign up for “Music Therapy Makes a Difference” tote bag giveaway and my favorite granola recipe!  Take a listen and leave a review on itunes to help <a href="http://listenlearnmusic.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rachel</a> out!</p>
