In the first segment:

Recent spikes in interest rates have affected loans for everything from corporate expansion to buying a home. We look at the affect it has had on San Antonio and what the housing market has looked like throughout the economic downturn.  

Joining us is San Antonio Board of Realtors President Angela Shields.

When you are in charge of taking care of loved ones, you often lose track of taking care of yourself.  Stress, depression and anxiety are not uncommon amongst caregivers. We talk with local advocates and experts in what people need and where they can get it from to care for the caregiver.

Helen Flores from Caring Companions and Carol Zerniel, president of the WellMed Charitable Foundation, join us.

*The Source airs at 3 p.m. on 89.1 FM KSTX - audio from this show will be posted by 5:30 p.m.
