Meet the Sisters
Steph
A beauty in high-school, the 38-year-old eldest sacrificed her dreams to marry young and raise her daughters. And her parents still punish her for it.
Birdy
Her alternative lifestyle calls her out as “other.” And Birdy’s professional achievements aren’t enought to make up for Mom’s disapproval.
Remi
With a massive chip on her shoulder, “number four” is desperate to prove herself to this family of over-achievers. Can she avoid self-sabotage?
Gabi
The middle sister is Janie’s maid-of-honor—artistic, dyslexic, and emotionally wounded. Her impending 30th birthday inspires change.
Janie
The easy-going youngest is everyone’s favorite, but when family drama threatens to derail the happiest day of her life, Janie rebels.
Think
If Amy Harmon or Sara Ackerman’s characters had to manage a narcissistic retired beauty queen.

Can a shaman in emerald-green cowboy boots save Janie’s wedding day?
Thirty-year old Gabi French is Janie’s maid of honor. She’s a street artist sliding by on her reputation and longing to inject some color back into her life. She’ll have to heal the emotional fallout of an abusive relationship, overcome caustic critics, and defeat the distractions of ADHD—while managing Jack, the groom’s charming older brother.
Beautiful, selfish Remi is five years younger than Gabi. She hopes being Janie’s wedding planner brings her the family respect she craves, but a plan to reset her image is on the brink of destruction. And Remi can’t help competing with Gabi. Especially over Jack, who she saw first.
This wedding weekend could be the perfect moment for each sister to heal old hurts and step into her potential, but when empowering themselves threatens Janie’s wedding day, they must let this colorful shaman show them the transformational power of love.
