WELCOME to Choose Authenticity with Andrea

The place where my book “She’ll Do It Her Way,” comes to life. A space to slow down, tune in, cut out the external noise, and remember who you really are. So you can do things your way, and shine softly from within.

About This Space

Hi, I’m Andrea, your ‘Soulful Challenger,’ and I’m here with gentle nudges, soulful reflection, and honest conversations to help you feel like YOU again. But better.

This is a space to explore what it means to choose yourself, every day, and to show up as the ‘real you.’

And when I say the ‘real you,’ I mean who you really are. Not the ‘pretend you’ you carry around to make the world think you’re OK.

You know, the one who says “I’m fine” when you’re anything but!

The one who’s spent years feeling the pressure to fit in, do what everyone else expects, and trying to be the ‘perfect’ partner, friend, parent, leader and all the other hats you wear.

What You’ll Find Here

This space is where my book “She’ll Do It Her Way,” comes to life.

It’s not a how-to book. It’s a memoir spanning four decades of stories and lessons from wise souls like my Gran, Dad, and many more.

Each chapter offers a mirror, reflecting moments you might recognise in your own life, and gentle invitations to reconnect with the ‘real you.’

It’s where I’ll share the stories, lessons, wisdom and deeper questions to help you:

Slow down
Cut out the external noise
Choose yourself
And remember who you already are

And when you do that, you’ll feel it.

Wholesome.

Ease.

Joy.

Freedom.

It’s also the space I've created for you to share your own reflections, insights, and hidden clues moments as you start doing things your way. It's where the book's wisdom continues to unfold through our collective experiences.

2) Don’t Just Read - Reflect and Share

If all you do is collect emails, nothing will change. You need to choose to do something different.

So, here’s your next step.

Download the Substack app and turn on notifications.

That’s where you can read, comment, and start conversations by sharing your insights with others.

I truly believe there’s something powerful in putting your thoughts into words. Because we often don’t fully understand what we think, until we say it out loud or write it down.

Wisdom grows when it’s shared. And that inspires others to reflect, open up, and trust themselves too.

The Archive - Your Soul Library

Since 2015, I’ve been writing a blog on my website. Now, I’m slowly adding those reflections to the archive. They’re yours to explore.

Start here.

Are You A Chooser?

If you’ve read this far, maybe something inside you is whispering, “I choose me.”

Hold it close.

Say it out loud.

Write it down.

Share it in the comments.

Carry it with you.

Because your courage to share “I choose me,” might be the nudge someone else needs to choose themselves too.
