Heidi Parr Kerner

Queen of all media, meet the Queen of Self-Esteem.

Erie motivational speaker and small-business networking consultant Heidi Parr Kerner says on her Facebook profile that she can “help you transform the way you express who you are so you can speak, sell, persuade and communicate in the world!”

Now she wants to do that with women across the nation.

Parr Kerner has submitted an entry in the “Oprah’s Search for the Next TV Star” contest. It’s an online voting opportunity that’s wrapping up Sunday morning at 2:59 AM Erie time.

Her idea is to produce “Heidi”:

An Interactive TV Show for Women “Living Your Life from the Inside Out.” It is an opportunity for women to get the support – guidance, nurturance and structure – to practice Daily Disciplines as they face their daily life’s journey. This video demonstrates real women in a Women’s Empowerment Session, sharing the tools, techniques and inspiration that they have acquired from being a part of a group.

The good thing about this voting as opposed to the Pepsi Refresh voting is that while the Top 5 votes winners will move on to the next round, Oprah and her producers will  get who they want, so another 35 people will be chosen from open casting calls or other online entries.

Still, the more votes the better. To see Parr-Kerner’s audition and to vote go to the new Oprah Winfrey Network website.
