ABOUT ME
Hi there! I am Marah Elizabeth, and I am so happy that you’re here. While I grew up in a small town of about 8,000 people, I always craved living in a larger city. Now, I’ve lived in Chicago, DC, Milan, Denver, New York City, and now I’m living back in Denver with my husband and our Puerto Rican rescue pup, Bella (pronounced “bay-uh”). I’m obsessed with personal development, making time for creative hobbies, and intentional living. My mind has always gravitated towards figuring out how to live a full life.
WHY I STARTED MY BLOG
I started my blog (formerly Making it Millennial) back in July 2016 after being laid off from my full-time job in program management at a start-up education nonprofit. Although that experience was a HUGE ego crusher, I hadn’t been happy in that work environment and chalk it up to fate taking over. I had been dreaming of starting a blog about my passion for building a life you love for ages and felt like it was the perfect time to do so.
On my blog, I share posts about my own lifestyle design and things that spark joy in my life.
THINGS I LOVE
- podcasts + audiobooks – mostly about personal development, I’ll throw in a cheeky romance novel now and then
- quotes on quotes on quotes – I love soaking into a juicy thought
- delicious treats (I love chocolate-y, peanut butter-y treats)
- spotify playlists – any of the “focus” or “indie” stations get played a lot over here
- traveling! I studied abroad in Italy and visited 12 countries in Europe while abroad and have been exploring the world ever since. to me, it’s the absolute BEST thing to spend money on
- waking up early and having a s l o w morning to myself – I’m a morning person through and through
- my massage gun – it’s the absolute best
- art!
- morning and evening rituals – I enjoy having these special moments at the beginning and end of my days
