about me
I’m Taylor!
A twenty-something Dallas native who has been living in Austin for the last 5 years! I played D1 soccer as a goalkeeper first at The University of Kentucky and then transferred and graduated from The University of Texas. I’m a wife to my high school sweetheart Adam, mom to Lizzie (<1), dog mom to our mini Bernedoodle, Charlie, I work full time in corporate sales for a cyber security company and manage a rental property! My life is busy, but I wouldn’t change it for the world. Above all else, my faith in Jesus is what guides and motivates everything I say and do, so I hope it shines to every corner of this online space!
We recently took a huge leap to move back to our hometown and renovate a 1990s house! It has always been my dream to move home and be close to family, and God made that a reality by blessing us with a house only half a mile from my parents. It was a bit of a stressful season for us with all the renovation decisions, and moving with a 4 month old baby right as my maternity leave ended, but nonetheless fun and exciting!
If you couldn’t tell from the list above, I’ve got a lot on my plate and wear a lot of hats, and I assume that you probably do as well! That’s why I’ve created this blog - to encourage, inspire, and motivate you to be the best YOU that God intended you to be, while making the most of the time you have. From making your house into a home, to hosting your friends and family, taking care of yourself physically, spiritually, and mentally, fostering a strong family unit, and an array of other topics that are meant to simplify, yet elevate your lifestyle. Throughout my 26 years I’ve learned that each day is a new opportunity to be better than you were yesterday, and that God desires for us to live an abundant life (Luke 12). Everybody has different gifts, talents, skills and passions, and I hope this blog empowers you to utilize yours to the best of your ability and "Taylor" YOUR life for the better, one post at a time.
