We had the good fortune of connecting with Summer McIntyre and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Summer, is there a quote or affirmation that’s meaningful to you?
My favorite quote would have to be, “Once you realize you deserve better, letting go will be the best decision ever.” This is my favorite quote because throughout my life, I had to make some decisions to better myself. I had to close doors on some people who weren’t motivating me to be better. I also had to close doors on people who were toxic, and hurting me. Throughout my life I’ve always been considered as someone very happy, and always positive. My mindset is if you’re not helping me to be a better me, we just won’t be friends.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I am currently about to be a junior in college. One of my future goals is to become a therapist/counselor whatever comes first. I want to get my degree so I can be able to help people change their lives for the better with the advice I give. I’ve always been known to give good advice, so I want to use what I know to help others.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Main event, AMC, SMG, top golf, Marietta diner, Jim and nicks, massage envy, six flags and the fair, places that I can like relax.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I have a really nice support system in my family so I do think them for showing me things that I need to focus on in my life. Everyone in my family really does support my goals so I do appreciate that, if I do something wrong they will tell me and I appreciate that too. I also want to thank my small circle of friends.
