16 May (New Post) New Channel, New Beginnings – Closing One Door to Open Another
In order to move to the next chapter of your life you have to open the door in front of you and be able to close the one behind you.
I can safely say that the last 2 years of my life have been a slow but steady preparation for me to get the place that I am in right now. Mentally, physically and spiritually ready to close and open the doors in my life.
I started my online journey as a “Wild Girl” and over the last 4 years I learned more than I could of imagined about the power of the internet, how to build a brand, business and friendship and what I truly want for myself. My years as a WILD girl were sometimes actually Wild but the good and the bad were all experiences that I needed and I am happy to have those years to look back on but I’m more excited for what’s to come. I saw my friend @LeonaJess tweet something the other night that hit the nail on the head for the stage that I am getting to, “growing into my wings” (and it feels good!)
I told myself at the end of 2012 that I was no longer going to wait, or doubt myself or get in my head and hold myself back from anything that I wanted to do no matter how big or small, no more excuses! Life is too short to not live the life you want and I’m proud to say that I’m doing it! I wrote out a list of about 80 goals and I’m sure I’ll add some more but the start of my journey with these goals was starting a new youtube channel youtube.com/andrealewichannel) and then finally getting as much of this list done as I can! Like I said some of the goals are big and some are very small but all of them are to make me better, smarter, and healthier as a person. I hope that all of you will do the same, if you have a list of wants and goals go out and accomplish them and tell the world or at least tell me and we’ll inspire each other :).

Posted at 22:27h, 16 MayAs much of a fan I was of Those Girls and as much as I will miss all of that I am a huge supporter of you individually. One of the main things that drew me to the site originally were your individual goals. I’m excited to see what things you have in store.

Posted at 22:37h, 16 MayThanks Caffie! You’ve always been down and I love ya! Did you see your cameo in the latest TGAW video? It’s near the beginning 🙂 I’m excited for you too, Mommy life is the best!

Posted at 00:47h, 17 MayYes I saw my cameo. Motherhood has been something totally different but yet so wonderful. I’ve actually been reevaluating a lot of things in my life, especially goals and things that I want. I’ll be 30 in a few weeks and I’ve been sitting around compiling a list as well: personal, family and business related. I’m trying to narrow it down to 30 things I want to happen at 30.

Posted at 00:59h, 17 May“30 goals for 30” is amazing! Please do it! You’re young and you’ve got some of the best inspiration in your life with your daughter so there’s no better time than now! Please do it, “30 at 30” I literally love this idea, when I’m turning 30 I’ll be copying it lol

Posted at 23:25h, 16 MayI’ve been a fan of TGAW almost since its inception and this is only the second time I’ve left a comment on any of your videos/blog post. I would like to say how proud and inspired I am by you. Your transparency and positivity is amazing, such an inspirational display of what the human condition is and how to handle it. I’m sad to say I was unable to donate as much as I would’ve liked to your indiegogo campaign since being a student generally means you’re chronically broke haha but I have complete faith in the success of your company and look forward to seeing more representations of myself on the big screen. Congratulations and we’re rooting for you here in T.O xo
