MEDIA RELEASE: 

   
Two Women & a Poodle, as they have been affectionately dubbed, were inspiring people to live authentically and Join the Conversation long before Anderson Cooper & Twitter engaged in such rhetoric.

Claiming "Our country is better than this!" Dotti Berry and Robynne Sapp, along with their standard poodle, Rylee Joy, embarked in 2005/06 on a year-long 50,000 mile journey, Gay Into Straight America. Their intention was to bridge the divide by engaging hearts and minds, creating authentic connections and transcending differences that separate us. They now appear to be visionaries, women ahead of their time.

What their journey taught them was much more encompassing than the vehicle they rode, that of being a same gender couple.  They discovered that the desire to live authentically and passionately, and to connect with one another is the common thread. In that respect, each person is faced with this choice, "How do I live as the gift I am, experiencing life more authentically and engaging with others more deeply?"
