Whaddup, y’all? I’m Carrie Cullen.
Wanna be real life friends?
I’m an honest as they come blogger and photographer who wants to get to know you in real life; the messy, beautiful human you are. I’m here to remind you that you are perfectly imperfect, you are enough, and I’m over here supporting your realness along the way!
I love serving the world by fostering true community beyond our screens by taking a refreshingly transparent approach to talking about taboo topics like surviving the loss of my brother to suicide, feeling alone and not enough in this massive media filled world and how to overcome it all, inspire and unleash the best version of ourselves.
I am most passionate about encouraging people to love their imperfect selves on the journey to creating their most fulfilled life. If you’re craving more honesty, connection and inspiration, you are in the right place!
Most evenings you can find me in our new Madison, WI apartment obsessing over designing our new space, living that newlywed life with my high school sweet heart and catching up on The Bachelor. I am best known for my Beyoncé dance moves, my listening ear and sound (yet sometimes sassy) advice, and not sugar coating anything for anybody.
I’d love to cozy up and sip a cocktail over some intentional conversation, dance to Beyoncé and be badasses together. Here’s to new friends!

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”

“You are loved. Massively. Ferociously. Unconditionally. The Universe is totally freaking out about how awesome you are. It’s got you wrapped in a warm gorilla hug of adoration. It wants to give you everything you desire. It wants you to be happy. It wants you to see what it sees in you.”
