Meet Carly

Carly, the “Zen Mother” — A Blend of Wellness and Grit

I’m a creator, a mom, and a Crohn’s warrior learning to slow down and take better care of myself.

Carly has the ability to bridge the gap between high-level education and hands-on, holistic living. Whether it’s her long-standing dedication to Hatha yoga, "Zen Mother’s Oven" creations, or Carly the former Home Ec teacher and instructional designer, and now rogue as a Life, Health and Annuities agent, she's not just learning things—she's mastering them at midlife, and is finding ways to bring the wisdom to others. Her transition back to Columbus while maintaining the "ACEs to Zen" philosophy shows adaptability, resilience and a commitment to starting fresh with intention.
