About Life of a Southern Girl

Hey y’all! Welcome!

“Follow your dreams, no matter how long they take.”

I’m Elizabeth, a 39-year-old wife and boy mom living in a small town in Tennessee. I’ve lived my whole life in the south and can’t imagine being anywhere else. Life of a Southern Girl is a space for me to share my love of the south and my appreciation for the people that live here. From southern food to soulful southern stories, I hope to bring you a little piece of the south no matter where you are. Launching Life of a Southern Girl has been a dream of mine for the last decade, and I’m beyond thrilled to share this space with you.

The Saturday before Mother’s Day is Birth Mother The Saturday before Mother’s Day is Birth Mother’s Day. A day where we recognize those mom’s who’s child is being raised by another. It is not lost on me that I am a mom because another woman wanted a better life for her son than she thought she could provide. That’s why I try every day to be the best mom I can be to Little Man so that maybe one day she’ll be able to see her sacrifice did give him the life she wanted him to have.

I’ve been a little MIA lately on socials because I’ve been a little MIA lately on socials because life has been so hectic. I’ve had time to do a lot of thinking about where I’m at in life and where I want to go. I’ve spent hours brainstorming and working on a new business venture that will give me a platform to speak about what I’m passionate about. A new venture that’ll allow me to help people get ahead and will give me the opportunity to show companies how to value their employees. Can’t wait to be able to share it with everyone.
