Dream Bigger!!! Update to LOL
Submitted by: Sonja
West Haven, CTI'm a mom, totally unique thoughts member, just became a business owner.
Sitting here reflecting on the past year or so I remembered my story was published here from 2008. WOW!! How time does fly when your having fun!! So many more things have happened.
I, just like everyone who discovers The Secret can find themselves at times getting swept up in friends lives and seeing how that can affect your own life. Good or Bad.
After being in New York for a while and doing the Off Broadway play I started thinking maybe I should dream a little bigger. Maybe an apartment? Maybe a job somewhere in the city? The Chrysler 300 I had been dreaming of?
The Chrysler came…and I didn’t have to buy it. Matter of fact I had mentioned that I wanted one just one month prior in a conversation with some friends. When my car I was driving went kaput… my best friend the same day said, “We’ll go to the dealership and I’ll get a car you can use to travel back and forth from CT to NY.” How Crazy Nice!! To top it all off??!! He said “I already know what I’ll get.” It was the Chrysler 300 touring. (Learning lesson for me… be more specific. I couldn’t decide which model or color I wanted during my days of visualizing In fact I had three on my dream board, all different colors and the black one showed up.)
When that happened I was giddy, and started thinking. Maybe I want to be on the air here in New York. Which really, at first I was like there is no way, this is New York.. but I just put it out there, made a little On-Air sign and sat it next to my bed. A few months later that same friend and I decided to get an apartment (OMG an apt in NEW YORK? that I’m not paying for????) I looked at a few ads and found just what I was looking for. A sweet looking bathroom, hardwood floors very New York-ish, and next to the train. Now, more money is needed. Okay so I found an ad for an internet radio gig. I was like “Hey, I’m game.” I sent my demo and got an email back within hours giving me a interview date. CRAZY!!!!! That doesn’t happen!! The address?? One stop off The World Trade center.
I get to the place and it turns out to be in this multi million dollar studios matter of fact, it was the Historic Z100 studios of New York. Crazy!!! I got the gig. I was working with a celebrity I had admired growing up. My boss, had played my demo for everyone in the building so they all knew me when I got there!
However after 6 months, to be completely honest, I loved it but the commute was tooooo much!!! I was in between New York and CT with my daughter too much, so inside I started yearning for something different but I wanted to still do radio. I wanted to be home in CT. Never in a million years would I have thought I could own a radio station. Guess what?? Now, after working at that internet station I realized I have the skills and connections to RUN my own station. Welcome WTS Radio Crazy!!! We’re doing well too… a featured station we are doing concerts (which explains why I kept seeing myself on a stage introducing acts to large crowds) DJ’s from around the world, support comes from out of no where, and all still without being rich..
Now after all that has happened in the past year, WOW. It’s only been a year and some change since I last wrote? Now, I am thinking of BIG money and I am excitedly expecting wonderful things!!
Cant wait to give a new update!!
