“Women
are craving a morning show that really speaks to their issues,” say Michael
Moss, Executive VP of Production for The Balancing Act. “They want a show
that’s fun, without a lot of fluff; they need real advice that will help them
and their families every day.”
A
nationwide search went out to find the perfect—or should we say well
balanced duo. Moss says, “You can imagine the competition. But we chose
Beth and Kristy because of the way viewers will relate to them. They are
bright, funny, energetic, and they get it!! They know the struggle it is to
keep the balance between all of a woman’s multiple roles.”
Beth
and Kristy have it down to a science with their chemistry!
They’re exciting to watch as they banter, and play off of each other’s words.
They’re informative, their dynamic—what can we say? They’re women!
Beth
and Kristy both say, "We're already hearing the buzz about the new
show-- and are excited to be a part of it”!
Beth
Troutman, a North Carolina native, has had a diverse and groundbreaking career.
At 19, while still in college, she founded a not-for-profit organization
focusing on self-esteem issues for young girls. She later spent four years
working for the television series The West Wing, and became so inspired
that she became the first woman to run for the U.S. House of Representatives in
North Carolina’s District 8. After losing in a very tight race, she was then
tapped to host the morning show Fox News Rising. She is married and
lives in South Florida.
Kristy
Villa, a Miami native, has been a highly respected anchor and reporter in some
of the country’s largest television markets including Miami, Houston and
Phoenix. She’s covered an array of national stories including the Papal visit
to Cuba and Hurricane Wilma. As a former medical representative, Kristi brings
a wealth of knowledge about the health issues that concern women. She is
married with two children.
