Show of hands for those of us who have seen more drama in our families and the relationships around us, than that of a soap opera acting audition? Yeah, I thought so: everyone. No one is exempt anymore from the mind boggling miniseries-like sagas of couples, neighbors, siblings, and friends. It has become a never ending hourglass of drama in these here days of our lives. No wonder we are so emptied and migraine laden. Drama and busyness are the bookends that encompass most of our lives as we navigate in between the events on our calendars, as well as figuring out what we are going to say to the people that are going to be there. Really: how many people are tired of going to weddings when they already know the relationship is a disaster? And, why is this so important again? Because: these are generally the people procreating, and we, as a society, must learn how to stop enabling all of this drama and denial, because this generation is paying the price. And it is a steep one. Therefore, on behalf of kids everywhere: this show is a big giant call-out.

Tune in and hear how to get Drama Free = Yippee!! Seriously, let some real life begin already. Manufactured crises are truly unnecessary and they ruin the contrast for when we do go to the movies to see scripted drama that is, in fact, meant to be entertaining.
