A Story About Aging Parents

Every Family's Got One 2018 Cast Video -- Kate Mayer Photo by ebeth photography Aging Parents -- it's part of the circle of life. And, one that storyteller Kate Mayer has personal experience with. Kate shares her touching and hilarious story... about helplessly watching her aging parents’ struggle with the loss of their “vast fortune” of odds and ends destroyed in a basement flood. As the oldest (and bossiest) sister of four girls, it’s little wonder that Kate swooped in to try and help her... aging parents out in a dire situation.

A Story About Gratitude

By Every Family's Got One Founder -- Barbara Herel Photo by ebeth photography We are filled with gratitude!

Announcing the 2018 Cast of Every Family’s Got One

Every Family’s Got One Founder – Barbara Herel I am excited to announce our cast. But first, I need to tell you we were floored by your response! Audition videos came from... Long Island, New York City, Westchester, Connecticut, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Let me tell you, Family, there are amazing storytellers all around us! What’s more, the quality of the work was astounding. You just blew us away. And you happily made our casting decision a difficult one. Most difficult in fact! We spent many hours in our café eating our way through the casting process. (But seriously, we forgive you.) [...]
