As a girl who grew up in a small town in Oklahoma, being on an OKC TV broadcast seemed unachievable. As I sat in that production room with cameras pointed at me, the pride of that little girl welled inside me telling me this is only the beginning. I am so grateful for the opportunity to share my story and my book more widely, and I’m so grateful it started with News 9. EVERY single person I met at the station, from Robby, who secures and manages the entrance, to the owner himself, David Griffin, are extremely kind, personable, caring, and just good people. I had such a wonderful experience, nerves and all, and I am so excited for what the future holds. Thank you for playing such an important role in my journey, Rachel Jamieson, and for inviting me to be on your show. It was literally a dream come true. Little Amy is having a party in there! 🥹 Image descriptions: Robby manages the front entrance and he is such a delight! We had such great, intriguing conversations every time I was there. He’s such a great guy! Rachel is such a joy! She will light up any room she’s in and I love having her in my life. 💟 Trevor Wiseman is VP of Technology and you can only imagine what his job entails at the station. Yet, he came out to chat with me every time I was there and even asked me about previous conversations. I’m so impressed with the management team at News 9! They are amazing humans. ✨ Lisa Monahan and Storme Jones were spectacular! They were so kind and friendly, and helped put my nerves at ease. I asked them to make me look good, and they did! 😊 Watch here: https://lnkd.in/g4F6Ft32 #AmyThurman #FindingMyHeroWithin #PolishTheMirror #LiveInterview
