On this week's program:
Essayists share their thoughts on change and a new year..
As we begin this new year, we thought we'd give some of our listeners an opportunity to share their thoughts... and stories with us. Starting over is a common theme. Our first essayist,
Catherine Sebastian is trying a fresh start of sorts. How's she doing... well, lets find out...
(2:18)
______________________________________________________________________________
If you can't beat em...do you just join em'? Where does the inspiration come from that pushes us to change? It's something our next essayist, Regina Kalet ponders now and again, from a place she calls, plodders world .
(4:05)
______________________________________________________________________
Now... if you really want to get in shape, our next essayist says you may want to forgo sweats and a gym membership. Toni Lacativa Farkas has taken up a whole new sport she thinks might catch on...Toni Lacativa-Farkas (Laka-Teeva FAR-Kus)
(3:11)
_____________________________________________________________________
Sometimes a new year inspires you to make yourself over, break free of those old conventions and break out your inner rebel. How do you do that? Carolee Sherwood
has one idea.
(3:43)
_____________________________________________________________________
As each year goes by, we change as women. Some of those changes are deeply personal, but others are universal. The type of changes we may not talk about...but
most of us understand at a very basic level. The changes that force us to grow up, as we grow old. In our next piece, singer actress Gay Marshall takes us through one young woman's journey, in a song called My Childhood , from the Off Broadway hit, Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris .
(3:57)

No matter what changes the new year has in store for you, Martha Holmes hopes you're on the road to success.
