A part of the Morning Breakfast Club on WALK 97.5 in New York, Cindy keeps so many listeners entertained. Witty, intelligent, and down right funny, Cindy helps make the commute and morning a breeze. 

Cindy Says:

"Oprah turned 50 last year... and so did I.  We were both happy to reach the milestone as the women we've found ourselves to be at this point (and, I have to say, way different than what I thought 50 would be like, which is just part of the reason we are both celebrating).  And Oprah and I have a lot more in common... we both work.. we're both women... we both really love the human race.   

 

Okay so maybe we don't have that much in common...  like she's got billions of dollars and I don't.   And she's got someone else cleaning her house and whipping up dinner... and I don't.  But I have a husband, Bob... and my two girls- Megan who is (I can barely believe this) turning 29 this year... and Catherine who is 15 on the verge of 29.    

 

And I don't know- does Oprah have a dog or two??  I do, Riley and Rosie, but came to live with me from shelters and both eternally grateful.  But it's me that is the most grateful because the absolute, total, unconditional love that they give me far surpasses my springing them from a cage and letting them sleep on the furniture.  By the way, if you come to visit, either bring a lint brush or just don't wear black.  

 

And how does Oprah feel about cruising?  Has she even ever taken a cruise?  It was falling in love with the experience years ago that led me to form Gotta Go, a cruise-only travel agency with my best friend Lain and our friend Flo.  We like to look of it as an opportunity to share the joy.   I head to the office after I get done here at WALK... unless I get called to do a voiceover (the other big love of my life) for P.C, Richard, Fortunoff, Dairy Barn... or any number of other companies that let me work with them.  Color me lucky that I have three jobs that all give me immense satisfaction and happiness...

 

So what am I doing this year?  Well, last year I honored a life long love by starting bass guitar lessons.  Bought myself a cool, little Kremer bass and amplifier.  But color me fickle, that bad boy is just hanging on his stand now cause I've moved on to the piano.  Color me restless, color me easily bored... but at least give me credit for sticking with some sort of musical instrument.  

 

And for the first time in forever, I'm growing out my hair.  I've had short, short, short hair (see photo) for most of my adult daughter's life... and I'm sick of it.  So I'm giving it a shot at growing it out, which is a surprisingly big deal in my life these days.  Mainly because it's sooo difficult to go through the homely stages.   So I'm mostly avoiding mirrors for now.  And the big gamble here is that I have no idea if I'm going to like it long(er).   We'll see how that goes. 

 

All in all, Oprah and I both love our lives, what we do and who we are.  And for that, we are grateful for being such fortunate women. 

 

My motto:  Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been.  Dance like nobody's watching.

My other motto:  You can't be young forever, but you can be immature indefinitely."
