The hour radio show I performed last March 3, 2012, was about what you can do to be successful and transform your life. My hour has an (UC) Urban Contemporary format considered the “melting pot” format, which attracts a large numbers of Hispanic and Black listeners as well as white. I used this format, because I know this area fall in this kind of population being me one of those too. I programmed my hour show by four quarters; I started my intro show in which I Introduce myself in the show, and the name of my show. Then, I gave an advance about what the show will be. Then, I sent a legal bumper ID, after that there was a song “How Will I Know” Then, I started my show with the first part of the information about how was my beginning when I arrived to the United States and all inconvenient I had to face. There I talked about the language barrier; discrimination, divorce, and also I related my own experiences about my bad moments and my success. Afterward, I sent a President Barak Obama PSA, then a song. Later, there was my second quarter with the same sequence. I continued with my second part of the information about some suggestions that I gave to people about to follow our dreams keeping in mind that we will find obstacles in our way and just us can overcome them. Later, I sent a legal bumper ID, and then I sent another song “Tu Amor Me Hace Bien by Marck Anthony”. After that, it was another PSA (Bon Jovi), then another song “Las Cosas Pequenas by Prince Royce”. Afterward, there was another bumper ID. Then, there was the third part of the show; It was about my personal life, where I talked about my divorces and all sad side of my life in which I explained how I started from Zero and where I am trying to claim to get my goals. Later, there was another PSA (USHER ). Then, I sent another song “Hoy Llueve El Amor by Tito El Bambino”. Then, there was the last and fourth part of my informative message about how to fight for your dreams. Later, I sent the last PSA, Bumper ID, and song “Mami Ven Conmigo by Daddy Yankee”. Afterward, at the end of the show I made a summary of how you can success, overcome obstacles, and transform your life. Then, I sent a special message for all women who in any moment of their lives have been going through a bad moment and how to take the decision to fight for our dreams. Later, I sent another song “Danza Kuduro by Don Omar”. Finally, I announced the weather for the day and I closed my show giving thanks to all listeners and I finalized the show with my favorite song “We Found Love by Rihanna”.
