## Caption

I moved to New York in 2002. I was, in fact, totally broke when I got here. I had $200 to my name, and didn’t know a single person. 

I somehow convinced someone to give me an internship at Harper’s BAZAAR, and then worked in PR for over 10 years before I started my blog, “And I Was Like.” Because of the “And i” in www.AndiWasLike.com, people called me Andi for years 😂 

New York sure can humble anyone.
But nothing has humbled me more than having to pray and believe for the healing in my own body. 💗

The only way I can find purpose in any of this is to help someone else.

Thank you voguemagazine for shining a light on my story. I hope and pray anyone who sees this is reminded to do their self-exam. 💗
