Welcome to the club! I’m Carrie, the founder of Rebels Only Social Club (previously Rebel of Nothingness), a proud mom of two amazing kids — one about to graduate high school and the other navigating college, being a newlywed, and motherhood — and the Mimi to the sweetest little man. I’m married to my high school sweetheart who I met when I was 14 on a Fall Sunday afternoon after a year of crushing on each other. We were both born and raised in Maryland, but can’t wait until the day that we get to make the big move to Florida. In just a few years we are going to trade in these dark and dreary Maryland winters for warm sunny days, hurricane parties, and beach days whenever we want.
I started this space in 2014 out of my desire to be better than I was yesterday, bring like-minded people together, and help people feel less alone. It’s changed here and there, but it has always remained a space where we can share our thoughts, experiences, and stories about life, friendship, marriage, and the wild ride we call parenting. I truly believe that when we come together, we can support each other and grow through all stages of life.
I keep trying my hand at this blog thing, but it’s hit or miss with me. Now I am trying to add in a family podcast which has proven to be very difficult with everyone’s schedule. I don’t know how it will work out, but we’re going to try and hopefully, you’ll stick around during what is sure to be a rough start. I’ve also been the creator and seller of some pretty little things since I started this journey. You never know what you’ll find with me and typically my items are of limited quantity. Recently, I found a new love of thrifted and vintage items that I can upcycle and give new life to. Each piece is unique and one of a kind, at least when I’m done with it. If you see something you like, grab it before it’s gone!
Want to know more, stick around because it will all come out little by little. I’m really happy you stopped by and I hope you keep coming back. Whether you’re looking for inspiration, support, or just a place to browse pretty things, I’m so glad you’ve joined my little corner of the internet. Let’s inspire and uplift each other, one step, one story, and one pretty little thing at a time.
XoXo,
Carrie
