Media tour
Nothing like a week of press appearances to keep one’s self busy! On top of the usual craziness, my week was filled with three different tv appearances for Kelapo. I love being the face of the brand because, why not? It’s my brand! I’m in love with coconut oil! And there’s no one better than myself to talk all about the benefits of coconut oil to the world.
I’ve never done any tv work before so I didn’t know fully what to expect but surprisingly I wasn’t all that nervous. First, let’s put the week in prespective. Sunday night, while eating dinner in Miami, it started pouring raining, lightning, and thundering. A tropical depression popped up off the coast and created very bad weather for anyone trying to fly home. Our flight was scheduled to depart at 10pm. Finally, after midnight we took off from Miami and landed in Tampa, just an hour later but I still didn’t get to bed until around 2am. The next morning I had to be on set at 9am. There was very little sleep and lots of adrenaline for the first live tv appearance on channel 10.

With hosts Jerome and Holley, I prepared our smokey grilled cheese recipe, that was an instant hit at Expo East show we attended in Boston. We also talked about other great uses of coconut oil, like in oatmeal, on eggs, and to saute vegetables.
The next day, I prepared again for my second tv appearance on Daytime, which is filmed in Tampa and broadcast to 100 markets in the US. Talk about pressure! It actually wasn’t bad, although, I did stress about doing my own hair and make-up. I wish I could have my hair sylist with me on set! We made magic shell and again talked about the benefits of coconut oil, especially for skincare.

Later in the week, on Thursday, I traveled to Ft. Myers to film a segment on Fox news Morning Blend. I woke up at 5am (yick) and got down there around 9. This time I got to talk all about Kelapo coconut oil and explain why Kelapo really is the best coconut oil! Many thanks to Fox for that opportunity. Viewers from Ft. Myers can enjoy a special discount code on our website, ‘FOX’, for buy one Kelapo coconut oil product, get one 50% off for the next month. Or any of you readers out there who are now in the know. 😉
