Sorry About That

We had someone bring up a concern about the coupons we included in our "thank you" package, that I think has validity...I wish we could have changed things sooner, but alas...this is not possible.

Here's the background to them. We have a good relationship with a new spa owner in the city. When she let us put up a poster in her business, Rodney decided to try one of their services where you can lose inches through this muscle-stimulating machine, and then he blogged about it. As usual, she gave us a bunch of offers from her spa (she's always doing things like that). We thought we could include them in case anyone was interested in that kind of thing. And, I have to admit, we were lower on prize ideas than we had hoped, because we had been too reluctant to ask businesses. So, we were thinking more about our end of things rather than the possible feelings of you, our valued participants, particularly after a vulnerable moment in front of the camera.

So, if any of you felt shame, doubt, or (disgust?!) after opening up our "thanks", I am very sorry about that. It was completely unintended. We really hope to be thoughtful about the things we do, and in this case we weren't. And we sincerely hope we didn't sabotage your experience through our oversight.

On another note, we have just confirmed details for a very special unveiling event next Tuesday, so watch your inboxes for details. You all showed amazing courage, trust, and vulnerability in being part of our project...and we are so grateful. We hope you will be able to attend the event, as we look forward to showing back to you how beautiful you are, as well as honouring you with an enjoyable evening out. Thanks again!

Wow! I can't wait for this unveiling! I will be there and thank you so much for the back-story about the coupons! I feel a lot better about it now.
Thank you for a great experience.
