My Own Magic

A Reappearing Act

Read by the author.

For every woman searching for her voice, Anna Kloots shares her story of starting over by trusting the magic that was always within...

Despite what appeared to be a glamorous existence full of globetrotting adventures, behind the scenes, Anna felt invisible in her own life. Consumed by a marriage that left no space for her own desires and creativity, she chose to reframe the failure of her marriage as an opportunity to begin again.

It was Anna's innate sense of adventure and love for the unknown that led her to move abroad; travel around the world, visiting 80 countries; start her own business; and marry a magician—all before her mid-twenties. From the outside, her jet-setting lifestyle alongside her husband looked perfect. But though she appeared to have all the freedom in the world, in reality she was trapped in a slow-motion disappearing act.

When her marriage collapsed, she decided to use her unhappy ending as a chance for a new beginning—a reappearance into her own life and sense of exploration and discovery, letting each destination challenge, change, and shape her.

Following Anna's extensive travels from the bustling streets of Jaipur to the canals of Venice to the desert of Dubai, My Own Magic is a powerful memoir—a true, coming-of-age story about a woman rediscovering the magic that she always had.

Anna's memoir is proof that travel can transform you, inspire you, and even save you. Perfect for fans of Eat Pray Love.

Worthy read

I’ve been following Anna since her family’s struggles during the pandemic. But her own story is wildly unique but incredibly relatable. Would recommend.

Love

To hear the words read from Anna was amazing. Her story - unique yes - but in some ways no. We’ve all been through heartbreak. But her telling of it and the nuances makes it magic.

Magic lingers in a life have lived.

In all the time and days I’ve listened/read this beautiful story I woke up with excitement to carpe diem. The story she owned is a story shared be many unknowing women uncertain as she/I.
Read it listen to it. The time will certainly Be Your Own Magic!!!

Absolutely loved!

I loved the story and hope that Anna writes more about her life and experiences in Paris and about her family and travel. I could listen to anything that she writes! I bought the book in hard copy too.

My Own Magic will make you laugh and cry

Things are rarely what they seem - and this book sure proves it. Very much enjoyed Anna Kloots reading her own story.

Loved the metaphors woven throughout

I love a good metaphor I think the magic metaphors were clever .. I enjoyed how she skipped back and fourth in the timeline so it wasn’t just a story from start to finish . I enjoyed listening to the detailed stories of travel They kept it interesting. I felt she did a good job of not painting her ex to be the villain it was done very tastefully .. although I can’t believe she endured him for 10 years.. it was a very clear picture of his commitment issues . I think the reviewers are wrong who did not like her narration and feel like it wasn’t true to her Instagram . It was very authentic to who she is on Instagram and exactly as I expected ! The best part about this book is I feel that it’s truly a coming of age story for women at any point in their life . I am married with three kids at 43.. and I still related to this book. I think it was great ! I finished it in two days because I was so interested.. following her on Instagram only made me more interested in the story line . Well done Anna .

A lesson in vulnerability and strength through the toughest of times!

A wonderful book of self reflection and growth for women alike. Definitely recommend. Bravo Anna! Bravo!

Excellent book!

This an excellent book about finding and following the path you love. It’s about resilience in hard times and finding joy where you’re at. Highly recommend.

A beautiful journey

I love the narrators voice. She has a calming yet fine ability to tell a story. I enjoyed going along her journey with her.

I look forward to reading her other books
