I live in Atlanta with my husband, Matt, our kiddos, Jackson and Gemma, and our 3 fur babies, Scout, Boo, and Finch (yes, like the book!). I’m a Libra, an Enneagram 3w2 (that’s code for overachiever…I’m working on it), an INTJ, a Questioner, a Generator, an outgoing introvert, a bookworm, information addict, sushi fiend, animal lover, an OCD planner and an entrepreneur down to my bones.
For nearly a decade, I was a full-time, freelance journalist for over 125 magazines, newspapers and websites, including USA Today, EatingWell, Cooking Light, Travel + Leisure, The Washington Post, Forbes, Esquire, Women’s Health, Clean Eating, Wine Enthusiast, SELF and Real Simple. I’m also the author of the cookbook Atlanta Chef’s Table: Extraordinary Recipes from the Big Peach.
In October 2015, after being diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), Leaky Gut Syndrome (IBS), and hypothyroidism, and subsequently healing my symptoms naturally, I created Root + Revel, a holistic wellness blog with a focus on true mind-body-soul health.
After turning the blog into a profitable, six-figure business, I started getting questions from people nearly daily about how I did it. So I started writing Income Reports to show people that, yes, you can actually make money blogging.
And so The Six-Figure Blog Academy was born. 6FBA is my digital course where I empower my students with actionable advice and inspirational content to help them make their dreams of being their own boss a reality. It’s the exact, step-by-step system I used to grow Root + Revel into a six-figure business in just three years. And I did it all without selling my soul (i.e. I stayed true to myself, put authenticity and integrity first, alongside my readers’ best interests, and provided the most value possible to my tribe!).
I'm also the host the podcast, Success with Soul.
