Family, Do you all listen to the end of each episode for Anna’s Got a Word? Reply and let me know. It’s been a staple since season one and before then I had a whole podcast titled “Anna’s Got a Word”. I love ending each episode on a positive note because the news can be so heavy. This week I decided to talk about the power of manifestation. The power we have to speak life over our own lives. our families lives and our dreams. The belief that when you keep a positive mindset, put in the work...

Family, The Ambies ended up being postponed from Monday to Tuesday of last week due to the blizzard. On Tuesday night I gathered on Zoom with some of my fellow nominees and pod friends so we could watch together. I talk about that experience more in my QCrew video this week but it was just what I needed. Now, I didn’t win in my category and there was a momentary feeling of, dang, but then I was ready to move on and cheer for my friends. On this entrepreneurial journey I’m clear we will always...

Family, I’m so disappointed to share that due to the weather I was unable to travel to The Ambies in New York City. We made alternate arrangements but as the reports worsened we decided to err on the side of caution. And as I write this it appears we made the correct decision. So thank you Dianne, Quai, Kim, Danie, Kristy, Julie, Becky, Carolyn, Lisa, Susan, Dominic, Lairen, Rachael, my cousin Walter & Jano. I really appreciate you all contributing to the Help Anna Get to the Ambies campaign....

Family, First and foremost, Happy Black History Month ❤️🖤💚✊🏾 It is the 100th anniversary of Black History Month and we are living out the vision Carter G. Woodson had of celebrating Blackness out loud and proud. It is truly a blessing to be young, gifted and Black. Now even with that what a week's been. Journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort were arrested for covering a protest in Minneapolis. More Epstein files were released and it just gets more disgusting. The Trump administration is...

Family, We are back from Creating Change and a time was had! QCrew, watch your exclusive video for all the behind the scenes tales because there is much to share. I’m also still reeling over the Ambie nomination! Being nominated here is the equivalent of being nominated for an Emmy. That’s so major. We are nominated for Best Indie Podcast Host. Me. Best Indie Podcast Host. Now I could use help getting to the awards ceremony taking place February 23rd in New York City. This trip wasn’t planned...

Family, On Wednesday, I received a text message from a friend sharing & I quote, “AYYYYE look our friend is podcast famous”. It’s a group chat so I hurried to see who she was talking about & behold it was me. She included the image above, I saw our artwork right away & I was blown away. The Queer News podcast is in the same image with Mel Robbin’s, Vibe Check & the re-Living Single podcast 👀 What a moment. What a welcome surprise. The Ambies are the Academy Awards of our industry. Being...
