Hey There

I’M Lily Alfaro

Your fellow pajama-loving introvert who believes you can live a fabulous life without leaving your comfort zone (or your couch)

Smart and stylish blog writer Lily and it's About me page

I wasn’t always writing blog posts while hiding from my toddler in the bathroom (don’t judge). Once upon a time, I was knee-deep in biology textbooks, dreaming of becoming a doctor. But a few plot twists, and now I’m knee-deep in diapers, deadlines, and dreams of hitting “publish” before someone asks for snacks again.

A little backstory…

I started this blog as a mental escape — a place to pour my thoughts, organize the mess in my head, and maybe (just maybe) connect with others trying to figure out this beautiful, bizarre balancing act of life. What didn’t I expect? That writing about real stuff — the wins, the fails, the “what am I even doing?” moments — would resonate with so many of you.

Now I use this space to talk all things smart & stylish living:
💻 Freelancing as a mom (yes, it’s possible)
🧠 Mindset shifts that actually make a difference
📓 Lessons from biology that sneak into real life
☕ And thoughts from a woman who’s growing a business and a tiny human at the same time

Things I swear by:

  • Cold coffee, warm hugs, and late-night pinterest searches.
  • That you don’t need permission to build the life you want.
  • Freelancing is more than just working in pajamas (but that part is pretty great)
  • And that mom? We’re already superheroes — the cape is just invisible

Whether you’re a fellow mom, freelancer, or someone trying to make sense of life without losing your mind, welcome. You belong here.

  • Life hacks for the mom who overthinks everything.
  • Style tips that feel good, not forced. Wellness advice with zero guilt trips.
  • Personal stories because life isn’t always a Pinterest board.
  • And the occasional deep dive into why we’re all just trying our best.
