Synopsis

Welcome to Running in Slippers, a funny yet heartfelt memoir where Angie takes you through her journey of rock-bottom moments after a bad breakup and the loss of her father. It's a wild ride of misguided attempts to fill the empty space in her life — think of it like a train wreck you just can't stop watching. As she stumbles through love, loss, and trying to figure herself out, Angie’s story pulls you in with raw emotion and unexpected twists.In a world where we’re all wearing masks—whether on social media or in person—and disconnected more than ever (thanks, COVID!), it’s easy to forget how real life actually feels. Everything is filtered and edited, and we rarely see the everyday struggles that everyone is going through.But real connection doesn’t come from being perfect, it comes from being real. It’s scary to show up as your true self and risk rejection, but that’s exactly what Angie’s doing. She’s ripping off the masks to remind us all that vulnerability is where the magic happens.
