Welcome to Season Two of The Imagine Moore Podcast, hosted by Rose Young; educator, entrepreneur, event planner, and passionate community connector.
This podcast is a love letter to Moore County, North Carolina.
Each episode highlights the people, businesses, nonprofits, and traditions that make our community one of a kind. From new entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders to longtime local staples and unique events, we champion the people who are showing up with courage, creativity, and heart, building something meaningful right here at home.
Season Two dives even deeper into what makes Moore County special:

• Traditions rooted in history and creativity
You’ll hear thoughtful studio conversations, along with special on-location episodes recorded throughout our downtowns and community spaces asking locals one simple question: What do you love about your town?
And because music and storytelling go hand in hand here, every guest receives a custom-written jingle—created just for them.

What happens when a designer who’s been imagining spaces since childhood steps fully into her own business—and then keeps growing?
In this Season Two episode of the Imagine Moore Podcast, we welcome back Annmarie Cannan of Annmarie Cannan Interior Design for a conversation that feels both familiar and brand new. If you caught her in Season One, you’ll remember the journey. If you didn’t, don’t worry—we’ll bring you up to speed.
This time, we go deeper.
Annmarie shares what’s happened since launching her business on her own, the unexpected joys (and surprises) of entrepreneurship, and what it really feels like to take that leap later in life. We talk about her exciting move into Johnsye White’s space, what that means for her business, and how her work continues to evolve.
You’ll also hear what she’s seeing on the front lines of design right now—from trends in color and materials to how people want their homes to feel in today’s world.
And of course, we wrap with a powerful reflection on courage, reinvention, and what it takes to say, “Now is my time.”
This episode is for anyone who loves beautiful spaces—and for anyone quietly wondering if it’s too late to start something new.
Spoiler alert: it’s not.
