Bold, Insightful Book on Overcoming Fear Shares Wisdom Through Thought-Provoking, Humorous Essays

Wisdom Wedgies & Life’s Little Zingers Help People to

Wake Up, Stand Up and Snap Out of It!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 Frisco, TX December 28, 2011—DeDe Murcer Moffett, recording artist, radio interviewer, actress, inspirational speaker and voice-over talent, can now add author to her lengthy résumé. The autobiographical book shares the author’s message of overcoming fear after a debilitating addiction to alcohol almost upended her life. She shares how she woke up one morning amidst the debris and regret of an all-night binge to realize she was destroying her extraordinary talent and if she did not stop, she would never realize her passions and dreams of returning to the stage and entertaining.

DeDe Murcer Moffett’s thousands of friends and followers on Facebook and Twitter were daily gifted through her wall postings with her quotes, rants and controversial zingers on overcoming fear and facing life head-on. It was through their urging she made the decision to compile her essays into this book, Wisdom Wedgies & Life’s Little Zingers.

“I was certain all I needed was more money to overcome fear and self-doubt, so in spite of my dreams, I decided to enter corporate sales, and I was indeed, a success by the world's standards.” DeDe says. “However, all the money and        accolades only served to bury my passions and desires so I turned to alcohol for solace and comfort for 24-years.”

In 2007, DeDe stopped drinking and started performing again. Her debut CD, I Believe was released in 2009, she founded her Snap Out of It! Women’s Network & Conference; Snap Out of It! Radio Network; and the Wake Up, Stand Up and Snap Out of It! Leadership Program which brings awareness, tools and techniques to shift one’s life from the numbing mundane to a rich, vibrant, passion-filled existence.

DeDe is a highly sought after speaker and entertainer using her voice to create powerful change and transformation. DeDe has put herself on the world stage in front of over 10 million people by singing the National Anthem for the NBA Thunder and for her beloved New York Yankees where her late uncle, Bobby Murcer was a baseball legend.

DeDe educates as she entertains by weaving humor and a touch of sarcasm into the Wisdom Wedgies in her book. Readers are offered the tools of how to be successful by gaining power through confidence, clarity and courage.

The book consists of short, thought-provoking and humorous essays that help awaken one from the deep trance of the herd mentality. What a person would like to say but would never have the guts, DeDe says it for them. Wisdom Wedgies & Life’s Little Zingers allows one to sit back, have a laugh and step outside their comfort zone!

Live Your Dream!

Singing the National Anthem at Yankee Stadium on Old-Timers' Day, June 26, is special to DeDe Murcer Moffett.

From the time Babe Ruth homered April 18, 1923, in a win over the Boston Red Sox, memories began to mount at Yankee Stadium.

That is, with some painful exceptions, including Bobby Murcer, who was a New York Yankees broadcaster after his 17-year major league playing career.  The Oklahoma City native had died less than a month earlier at age 62 after battling brain cancer.

On that August day, rains were brushed from the Bronx sky just as tears were from DeDe Murcer Moffett's hazel-gold eyes. Wearing a T-shirt proclaiming “Bobby Murcer Fan For Life,” she was among the thousands.  This year, she returns for the Old-Timers' Game Sunday, June 26 — not as a fan, but to sing the national anthem in memory of her uncle. 

The “Star-Spangled Banner” never lacks for emotion, but when DeDe takes the field at the new Yankee Stadium, she will do so in honor of a man who used a smile even more than a bat to turn trials to triumphs.  She will step onto the field having lost her own father and Bobby's late brother, DeWayne, to cancer in May 1989, and her uncle, Randy, Bobby's youngest brother, also to cancer earlier this year.

She will step on the field having lived a life where she was active in music, left that for the corporate world, battled alcoholism and just a few years ago returned to recording music, as well as serving as an inspirational speaker.

“With all of that wrapped up into one day, for me, that is going to be the toughest and the sweetest thing getting my emotions in check, feeling the presence of Bobby, because I will,” she said. “I can't be in Yankee Stadium without feeling that he is there, because he was such a huge figure with that organization.  “It's an absolute honor and a dream come true.”

"DeDe was a featured entrepreneur on a panel at the largest Barnes & Noble in the nation for the launch of the Women Entrepreneurs’ Edition of A Cup of Cappuccino for the Entrepreneur’s Spirit.  DeDe’s story is so powerful and she delivers it with honesty, passion and conviction.  DeDe was also featured at a reception for the launch of the Women Entrepreneurs’ book in New York City. 

The reception was attended by many high profile entrepreneurs and DeDe’s performance was the highlight of the evening. Many compared her to Liza Minnelli on Broadway!  She empowers entrepreneurs as well as aspiring entrepreneurs and I am very thankful that I was fortunate enough to have shared the powerful evening in DeDe’s energizing presence"

"DeDe is willing and able, clear and without pretense; perhaps one of the few talk show hosts around these days who first has tried to "walk" what she talks about...which makes her as rare as it does refreshing!"
