This episode of Fighting Back Podcast is the first of several to be published in the coming days and weeks that will feature audio from the Fighter Mom Friday seminars. The Fighter Mom Friday workshop, held on May 9, 2008, was designed to educate, inform, and inspire attendees fighting against diseases or conditions affecting their children. The day-long event featured a number of speakers, and a number of them have agreed to allow us to present in podcast form the information they offered during the event.

Episode 14 of Fighting Back features audio from the seminar given by Nancy Jeffrey, senior editor and editor of the “Heroes” section of People Magazine. Ms. Jeffrey gave a wonderful talk on how her magazine handles feature stories (particularly those about diseases) and on how FighterMoms can use media relations in general.

Note: Ms. Jeffrey refers during her talk to a Powerpoint presentation. That presentation is available for download on the Fighter Mom Multimedia page.
