The Year of Reinvention
by Karen Wicker
Happy New Year!
I have the privilege of writing the first Rotary Reflections of 2025. It only seems fitting to talk about New Year’s resolutions.
There is something magical about January that allows us to start over, dream new dreams, or change a bad habit or two. Whether you want to exercise more, be kinder to strangers or finally clean out your crowded closet, I hope you take the time to hit the reset button and enjoy the outcome of your decisions.
I personally experienced this phenomenon last fall when I stepped into a new role in my businesses. After more than a dozen years as its leader, I turned over the reigns to the next generation. While I continue to play a Founder’s role, I am no longer responsible for the day-to-day operation, which is both liberating and, well, widely different.
This duality is what I hope for each of you in 2025. As Rotarians, we are called to service by promoting peace, fighting disease, supporting education, protecting the environment, helping economies grow and much more. Because Rotary has a full spectrum of options, there is unlimited potential to serve your local and global communities. READ MORE
