About

ChaChanna Simpson is an editor, professional speaker, syndicated columnist with The Connecticut Post online (www.connpost.com) and author of her first book Life After College: What Your Parents and Professors Never Taught You. She has been featured in The Stamford Advocate, NewsTime180.com, Power 104.1fm’s radio show, What’s Good Hartford? and 89.5fm’s radio show, Black Introspectives, empowering twentysomethings with real, no holds barred advice on successfully transitioning into life after college. Her favorite quote is "You may be disappointed if you fail, but you are doomed if you don't try."-Beverly Sills

Her website Twentity.com, is an Internet magazine dedicated to advising recent college grads on their next steps after graduation. This idea came to her when she walked into her own apartment for the first time and was hit with the realization that she was the one who was supposed to get the light and cable turned on. "Don't they come with the apartment?"

Realizing she wasn’t the only recent college grad who had no clue of how to do anything, she created Twentity.com, a site dedicated to providing answers to questions such as: how to find an apartment, what is life insurance and why do twentysomethings need it now, how to meet people after college and many more questions. The response was overwhelming and as a result of this need, ChaChanna recently began visiting college campuses working with students on "real world preparation" skills and successfully transitioning into the work world.

ChaChanna is a strong believer of helping out in the community and spends her “free time” volunteering at Recording for the Blind and Dyslexic, E-mentoring on icouldbe.org, and preparing meals for St. Luke’s Lifeworks community center once a month. She has been known to say: “I believe that we are all on this planet for a purpose: to help others. I refuse to believe we are on this planet to just wander around and only care about ourselves. Yes, we are born alone but we don’t exist alone.”

A graduate of The College of New Rochelle, NY, this Norwalk, CT resident is an active member of Give 'N Take Network, Stamford Chamber of Commerce, The Urban Professionals Network and Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc.

Description

“But what are we without dreams?”Orah and Nathaniel return home with miracles from across the sea, hoping to bring a better life for their people.

ChaChanna Simpson has written an essential guide to “real life,” full of the kind of advice you wish your BFF could give you. I’m ordering copies for every 20-something person I know.” Elizabeth Hilts, author of Every Freaking Day! with Rachell Ray and Getting In Touch With Your Inner Bitch ______________________ “Yes! Life after college is a culture shock! All of a sudden we are expected to have arrived so to speak, knowing all there is to know to move forward in our lives. This book provides the coaching necessary to begin to survive in a world that is not academic and where real people need to apply to thrive. An asset to any grad.” Cate Cavanagh, author of Her Godmother ______________________ “Life After College: What Your Parents Never Taught Youby ChaChanna Simpson is a wealth of information for twentysomethings on how to go from college life to the real world. In less than 150 pages Simpson manages to provide advice on moving back in with your parents, finding your first apartment, getting that first job, opening up a bank account, and so much more. This book even covers how to set up a budget and how to protect yourself from identity theft. There are also chapters on physical and emotional well being, how to provide for retirement, information about insurance, and how to set up a will. And all this is information is provided to the reader in a language that will be appreciated and easily understood.” Review by Cheryl Malandrinos of thebookrack.com ______________________ “ChaChanna Simpson has the integrity and motivation to inspire millions of young people coming right out of college, I have been impressed with her vigor, tenacity, dedication, and commitment to helping young people gain focus and knowledge for the next step in their lives..."true adulthood". Her methods are proven and tried, and her depth of knowledge can only come from one who has seen, lived, and survived it. I strongly recommend her guidance and counsel to any young person who is wondering what do next after college.” Daniella Raquel Jones, Undergraduate Advisor, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. Gamma Xi Zeta Chapter ______________________ “This book is a one-stop guide for all college graduates. It is uniquely created to give advice and advance preparation skills for life after college. I highly recommend it as a MUST READ before one graduates. It also makes a great gift for parents and family members to give as a gift to college graduates, but more importantly for them to read it themselves! I thoroughly enjoyed reading the real life experiences. This book is very informative and covers many bases. You have to read it!” <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/A1O8OFDDYU9JC7/ref=cm_cr_dp_pdp">Larissa Parks</a>, Maryland, Amazon reader review ______________________ “This book is a "must-read!" It is a practical "how to guide" on all the things you need to know but never knew when you graduated college. It was an easy read guide on the steps to take to set your "adult" life on track. Many things in the book can be implemented prior to graduation. It is a wonderful gift for juniors and seniors in college but anyone who is employed should read this book! You are never too young! I have given this gift to my teenage male cousins and they have found it most helpful and informative!” Nadia C. Matthie, Bronx, NY, Amazon reader review ______________________ After reading Life After College, I feel much better about my situation. I especially related to the comments from other twentysomethings because it made me feel like I wasn’t alone and that my problems are not exclusive to only me, but are common issues among my peers. Richard G. Nash, 24, Connecticut
