Descripción

What happens when a designer who’s been imagining spaces since childhood steps fully into her own business—and then keeps growing? In this Season Two episode of the Imagine Moore Podcast, we welcome back Annmarie Cannan of Annmarie Cannan Interior Design for a conversation that feels both familiar and brand new. If you caught her in Season One, you’ll remember the journey. If you didn’t, don’t worry—we’ll bring you up to speed. This time, we go deeper. Annmarie shares what’s happened since launching her business on her own, the unexpected joys (and surprises) of entrepreneurship, and what it really feels like to take that leap later in life. We talk about her exciting move into Johnsye White’s space, what that means for her business, and how her work continues to evolve. You’ll also hear what she’s seeing on the front lines of design right now—from trends in color and materials to how people want their homes to feel in today’s world. And of course, we wrap with a powerful reflection on courage, reinvention, and what it takes to say, “Now is my time.” This episode is for anyone who loves beautiful spaces—and for anyone quietly wondering if it’s too late to start something new. Spoiler alert: it’s not.

What happens when a successful woman finds herself navigating menopause, divorce, brain fog, hot flashes, and a soon-to-be ex-husband who seems far too comfortable flirting with younger women? You get Peg, Unhinged. In this episode of the Imagine Moore Podcast, host Rose Young sits down with award-winning author Teri M. Brown to talk about her newest novel, a funny, raw, and deeply relatable story about life's unexpected twists and the courage to reinvent yourself when everything seems to be falling apart. Teri shares the inspiration behind Peg, why humor can be one of our greatest survival tools, and how real-life experiences often find their way into fiction. You'll also hear Teri read excerpts from the book and discuss why so many readers are already seeing a little bit of themselves in Peg. The conversation also explores Teri's fascinating journey from Air Force brat to entrepreneur, novelist, and adventurer. Rose and Teri discuss her life in Moore County, her writing career, and the unforgettable cross-country tandem bicycle ride that inspired her inspirational memoir, 10 Little Rules for a Double-Butted Adventure. Whether you're a lifelong reader, an aspiring writer, or simply someone trying to navigate life's messy middle with grace and humor, this episode will leave you laughing, reflecting, and perhaps feeling a little less alone.

Flour, Fudge, and Quiet Revolutions: Inside the Sandhills Women's Exchange

What if one of the earliest movements for women’s independence didn’t begin with protests… but with baked goods, handmade crafts, and quiet determination? In this episode of The Imagine Moore Podcast, host Rose Young sits down with the incredible women of the Sandhills Woman’s Exchange to uncover a story that began in the 1830s and continues to impact lives today. From the restrictive coverture laws that once limited women’s rights, to a nationwide movement that empowered them to earn income with dignity, this conversation brings history to life in the most meaningful way. You’ll hear how the Sandhills Woman’s Exchange was founded in 1922 right here in Moore County, why it has never closed its doors, and how its mission of “helping others to help themselves” still thrives in 2026. We also spotlight Susan Taylor-Schran’s work preserving this legacy through her book Helping Others, and explore how the Exchange continues to support artisans and the community today. This is a story of resilience, creativity, and quiet strength — and it’s closer to home than you think.  Visit the Sandhills Woman’s Exchange: https://www.sandhillswomans-exchange.org/ 💛 Support the Exchange: The Sandhills Woman’s Exchange is currently working to recover from damage caused by Tropical Storm Chantal.
