Life & Work with Andrea Leone of Ohio

Today we’d like to introduce you to Andrea Leone.

Hi Andrea, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
Of all the places in the world that I have been. Dark & Light, amazing & not so amazing.
somewhere I thought, “there is no way I’m going back there” & yet, you just cannot control your destiny.
If you believe in fate, & then fate throws you a curveball, somehow, someway, Ohio made me realize & see the light in the darkness.

Nothing compares to Ohio; it has truly captivated my heart! & it’s the people!!
I am incredible grateful & thankful for my life in this incredible place.

When I got that ball thrown right in my face, right in my core…
Because let’s face it, we all go through phases in our lives where it’s extremely painful, & you might question yourself at times, thinking that you are alone in your battles, & it is the truth.: some darkness is meant to be experienced alone.
But here’s the kicker: through my darkness experiences, my darkness nights & days, I lived through that pain alone right here in the Midwest of Ohio. & yet, I have never experienced it in a way where I actually didn’t feel alone. – because of the incredible Ohio people, this community that never gives up & doesn’t apologize for it.

I mean, WOW! What an incredible experience. This is truly the Heart of the Country, & I am extremely lucky & proud to be a part of it.

It’s like “I’m Popping Out” Ohio Style!

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
That is part of my journey – realizing that we all have challenges. To me, it’s not about focusing on setbacks, but more about discovering that even when it is painful & uncomfortable, I must continue to align with what sets my soul on fire & trust my intuition.

It’s funny: every single time I don’t listen to mu gut, I always regret it. & in a divine way, when I do listen, more opportunities come into my life that align with my truth.

So is about always learning & keeping moving forward without expectations of a particular outcome – because that’s when the unknown becomes really magical.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I started a public Instagram account with the purpose of sharing my journey, serving as my own personal diary & journal of how I experience the world – with no strings attached regarding religion, social statues, culture, diversity, or roles placed on me by external forces that I even didn’t choose.

Somehow, it has become an inspiration to the youth in my community. Not only do I not take that for granted, but it has also given me a platform where my experiences align with everything around me. Finding a way to keep a public diary where I am authentically & genuinely myself, free of any bias.

What was your favorite childhood memory?
Taking long walks after dinner with my grandpa having the most fascinating conversations while witnessing the beauty of the night.
