I'm not gonna lie. I'm faking this #adulting thing, too.

My name is Gabby, and I’m pretending to have it handled just like I assume you are.

You’re probably thinking, “wait – why would I take adulting advice from someone who is faking it?”

Fair point.  

I’ve had to navigate a lot of things in my 8 years since graduating college, and I only write what I know.  So I promise none of this is BS – it’s what I’ve experienced, and I want to share that knowledge with you.

In my 8 years since graduating, I have ...

  • Been laid off ... twice
  • Collected unemployment
  • Been forced to get ObamaCare
  • Been rear-ended, which totaled my car
  • Had my heart broken
  • Gotten so sick it put me in the hospital

But life is SO much more than the bad stuff. I've also ...

  • Traveled to 14 countries, many as solo trips
  • Gone back to school to earn my M.S.
  • Purchased my first place
  • Adopted the perfect little dog
  • Saved more than my salary in my 401(k) (by 30!)
  • Tried new things that scared me, and LOVED it
Iceland Glacier Circle
Hiking a volcanic glacier in Iceland
Dixie Circle
My little snugglebug, Dixie
Bucket list! Seeing the Matterhorn
Where I received my M.S. from
Driving a Fiat convertible in Italy

Sometimes I have my s%@# together.

But I almost always have a load (or two) of laundry piled on a chair in my bedroom and I order takeout too much.  I’m figuring it out, too – so join me on this adventure and let’s figure out #adulting together.
