Feel Good: Are You a Bionic Woman?
Remember the 70's TV show The Bionic Woman? I use to love that show. Watching a smart, savvy and strong woman take on the bad guys and win was awesome. I had all the toys; the doll, her blow up house (that took all Christmas Morning to inflate), her bionic station, the outfits....EVERYTHING. I wanted to be the bionic woman. Yet, I was only a little girl that hadn't experienced tough life occurrences. I only saw the end product. The bionic woman kicking butt and taking names. But who was Jamie Summers before her bionic prowess? How did she get ...
Karen’s New Radio Job

My new station is 93.1 WZAK-FM. You can listen online at www.wzakcleveland.com. I will be the new Midday host (Monday-Friday 10a-3pm) as well as the Assistant Program Director for WZAK-FM and WJMO-FM. I would love for you to be apart of the new Karen Vaughn Interactive show while you are working your 9-5. Plus you can still listen to my shows in Charleston and Florence. A Working Diva is always on the move!
Before I continue to pack up my life…I want to thank you for the love you have given me over the years. Working in radio is a special job that I don’t take lightly. I am humbled by your support and want to make you proud.

After working a long day on the 9-5…it seems as if your day is only beginning. From making dinner, homework with the kids, returning emails and phone calls, to washing clothes, …the list goes on and on and on.
To start off your day on the best foot forward, you have to get enough sleep. A working diva can’t change the world with only five hours of sleep.
Give yourself the gift of rest and relaxation. Check out these tips and try to apply a few to your life.

Every Sunday my grandmother use to make Pillsbury biscuits before church. I use to love making the “pop” sound while opening the container. They are miniature dough rounds of goodness. Now on Sundays I have continued the tradition with my little one. The entire family loves the Honey Butter Biscuits. They are flaky layers of melt in your mouth good, palm tree swaying good, 1/2 off at the mall good. You just can’t have one and once you pull out your favorite jam…ours would be blackberry…breakfast is complete!

The devastation in Haiti after the earthquake is more than heartbreaking. We have to do what we can to help our brothers and sisters of Haiti…NOW. Entertainer Wyclef Jean; a native of Haiti has put together a Earthquake Fund for his country. Please contribute what you can. Here is his open letter.
“Haiti today faced a natural disaster of unprecedented proportion, an earthquake unlike anything the country has ever experienced.
The magnitude 7.0 earthquake – and several very strong aftershocks – struck only 10 miles from Port-au-Prince.
I cannot stress enough what a human disaster this is, and idle hands will only make this tragedy worse. The over 2 million people in Port-au-Prince tonight face catastrophe alone. We must act now.
President Obama has already said that the U.S. stands ‘ready to assist’ the Haitian people. The U.S. Military is the only group trained and prepared to offer that assistance immediately. They must do so as soon as possible. The international community must also rise to the occasion and help the Haitian people in every way possible.”
Many people have already reached out to see what they can do right now. We are asking those interested to please do one of two things: Either you can use your cell phone to text “Yele” to 501501, which will automatically donate $5 to the Yele Haiti Earthquake Fund (it will be charged to your cell phone bill), or you can click here to DONATE.
Thank you,
Wyclef

IT’S TIME time to make our New Year resolutions … but how do we stick to them when we’re all so down on ourselves? Here’s a boost!
Research shows we’re at our lowest ebb this week, disgusted at our over-indulgence at Christmas. That might explain why nearly half of us will have abandoned our well-intentioned pledges before the end of January, according to a poll by insurance company Go compare. So, if you really want to stop smoking, shift some flab or run a marathon, how can you make sure it will happen?
Sue Carpenter, a Glasgow-based life coach, believes the secret is to plan your resolution well. She said: “If you plan it quite carefully, and follow six easy steps, New Year resolutions can really work.”
