Hello! My name is Rebecca Schriner, but you can call me Becca, Becs, Bexter – anything but Becky. I am the founder of #AmAdulting, formerly known as Extraordinary Young Women. And it is my greatest joy to bring life hacks and adulting tips to you.
“#AmAdulting” is a blog focused on helping people of all ages dig deeper into their personal lives, neighborhoods, corporate cultures, and relationships. Before you get started reading, there are three things you should know about me and #AmAdulting:
- Our language is simple, conversational, and journal-esque. We provide stories and tips based on experience and thorough research – but that doesn’t mean our way is the only way. The content will be clean and appropriate for audiences of all ages, though mostly directed at young adults (late-high school to early 30s).
- My first opportunity to venture into the “adult world” was freeing, but tough. I was completely lost on how to care for myself as an adult, despite my amazing support system. No one taught me about bundling internet or cutting grocery coupons or furnishing my apartment. And that’s when this blog was born.
I wanted this site to be a place where young adults could learn something new about how to approach the “real” world. I wanted to make mistakes and memories – and share them with readers like you. I also wanted my friends and readers to share too. None of us #AmAdulting bloggers are adulting experts – so we want to share our stories with you to help you learn something new!
- Our writers love talking with our readers – that means two-way communication. We don’t want this blog to be another online advice column. Let’s create a forum where we can share our experiences and figure out how to prosper in this world together.
Happy reading! And don’t forget to subscribe, comment, and share!
