I finally tell the story of what it was like to be on a reality TV show “Wife Swap” that 21 million people watched (the first time. It’s aired dozens of times as a re-run since then), and how it accidentally gave birth to one of the greatest miracles of my life.
[06:07] How did GreenSmoothieGirl come to be? I was the subject of a TV show in 2007, ABC’s “Wife Swap,” and my eating habits got aired on national television. But how did that happen, too?
[08:32] How “real” is reality TV? We know by now that reality television is scripted, manipulated, and downright false at times. How did the show’s formula for “Robyn Openshaw: Mean Mom” impact me?
[24:34] My most painful moment. The show had one lie that was very hurtful to me: it told the world I was “so obsessed with efficiency” that I force all my children to celebrate their birthdays on the same day. Here’s the truth.
[42:34] What did I learn from ABC’s “Wife Swap?” I learned there are always silver linings (GreenSmoothieGirl is a big one!) and two main things: 1) be you. Don’t let anyone change you. And 2) don’t judge people harshly. Give people, and what comes through your eyes and ears and heart, benefit of the doubt.
