About Alana

Silver Lining Socialite is the PR and lifestyle brainchild of founder Alana Goodman. Serving as an “idealist’s guide to the real world”, Silver Lining Socialite puts Alana’s effervescent personality on display, with the aim of providing content ideal for any person of any age.

Authentically Alana. So sorry to disappoint, but if you assumed this to be another NYC based fashion and lifestyle blog, then you are sorely mistaken!

Silver Lining Socialite represents the rebirth of Alana’s childhood dream of becoming a writer. In a society favoring convention over creativity, Alana stifled her dreams, pursuing the path more travelled, the one up the corporate ladder. While excelling in Corporate America, Alana ultimately left to pursue her passion, keeping true to her childhood self (because aren't we all really still the same person we were when we were younger?) shunning the “society” she once knew, and vowing to create a new one for inspired writers of today’s generation.  What’s the point of having dreams if you never pursue them? 

Silver Lining aims to bring like-minded individuals together to create a “support system society”. Without any preconceptions or guise,  Alana is simply just herself, instantly establishing her voice through her writing, captivating her subscribers with her genuine, sparkling personality and ability to turn any situation or circumstance into a positive one.  

Serving as testament, the picture above demonstrates that even hot summer NYC garbage can look cool as she struts past.

Articles about Alana’s personal experiences and endeavors provide a relatable guide for those interested in personal growth. Readers will become familiar with Alana’s quirky personality, her wit and charm, but they will also feel a connection to a part of her through each piece, especially in her emotionally raw works discussing the recent passing of her father and her battle with anxiety. 

And nothing makes for a better story than its setting! Silver Lining Socialite follows the life, love, and style of Alana through the streets of NYC. Alana is truly a modern-day Carrie Bradshaw, ready to share her thoughts and ideas with the world in the hopes of reaching others and promoting positive change for all!
