i'm Annie.

If Andy Cohen and Oprah had a love child, that'd be me.
​
I'm a girl in her early thirties with big dreams living in the suburbs of Philly. It wasn't until recently that I discovered it wasn't enough to have dreams - you actually have to work towards them. SIGH. And I know, most people probably figured that out by age 9 but I'm delusional and really thought that if I was a good person and waited patiently enough that my dream job,dream husband and dream home would just magically fall from the sky while I sat on my couch and marathoned The Real Housewives.
​
I was wrong.

Then one night a successful friend shared an inspirational YouTube video that helped transform her life. It was cheese-ball city but I loved it! It was just what I needed. I was inspired to find more sources of inspiration, motivation and wisdom.
​
I wanted to absorb as much as possible from any source I could.
​
Since then I've watched countless more videos, read books, listened to podcasts - anything I could get my hands on! My life didn't change overnight but my mindset definitely did. Almost everything I've watched, read or listened to has given me some form of aha moment - some little nugget of joy or wisdom that made me feel like I was one step closer to being able to achieve the life I envision.
​
Don't get me wrong, I still watch too much TV and drink too much wine but I am committed to improving my life - we only get one after all!
​
I wanted to start this blog as way to share what I've learned and allow people to laugh with me (or at me!) as I stumble through this scary thing called adulthood.
​
Here's to making all those dreams come true!

When the harsh reality of turning 30 started to set in I decided that I couldn't wait any longer - I needed to take control of my life. As I looked around at my friends, their careers in full swing, getting married, having babies - I realized I had some major catching up to do...and I didn't even know where to begin!
I felt like everyone was given a GPS to navigate life except me.
