It's time to get started with a "new year" (host Nicole Rivera always defines a new school year as a sort of New's Years opportunity). In this episode Nicole talks about the 3 things she likes to do before getting started on new writing projects and new seasons: 1. clear the slate, 2. choose YOUR "have tos", and 3. find (or create!) your support system.
