Author
Hello, I’m Andria Flores. My book, type A plans B, tells the story of my compelling, heart-warming, and often humorous journey of screwing it all up, facing down big fears, and finding authentic faith. It's where perfectionism intersects with love — and love wins.
Editor
As an editor, I am committed to communicating every message with integrity. My strength in editing is preserving the author’s voice without sacrificing excellence in language. I work with many first-time authors, helping them draw out their purest message, discover their own process of putting words to paper, and navigate the writing and publishing industry.
Recovering Perfectionist
I spent over three decades of my life in pursuit of perfection, from straight As and gold stars, to marriage, babies, and a career. Once it became evident that perfectionism was actually failing me, my subsequent unraveling led me to discover my authentic self, find vulnerability in relationships, and live life on my own terms. Being a recovering perfectionist makes me a keen editor — and a lot more fun to live with!

Be Tender — We Are All Icebergs
We've all felt judged and misunderstood. Certainly, we have all passed judgment and failed to understand. Judgment can become such an instinctive voice of reasoning in our heads that we become desensitized to the fact we are even doing it. Type As can be especially critical—either of themselves or of others.

Finding Faith In Myself
For most of my life, when I approached anything I wanted to have or achieve, my self-talk prepared me for how I'd feel if I didn't get it. I talked myself out of winning, sometimes out of even trying, because I wanted to prepare myself for the sting of failure and disappointment. It was a self-defeating mind-game that made winning seem like a perk and losing, not so bad.

Putting My Feet Down
I’ve been going through a hard thing. Mounting stress, anxiety, and drama have come at me wave after wave—and not in a rhythm I could easily ride out, but one that left me fighting. Difficult circumstances anchored themselves in my life so long, they were beginning to pull me under. Just when I would come up for air, I’d get pounded by another wave I didn’t see coming.
