Pull Up a Chair
I’m so glad you’re here.
For the past eight years I’ve shared my life on Instagram. It’s where many of us found each other, and I’m incredibly grateful for this community. Over time, I realized I wanted to build something different—a place that’s a little slower, a little deeper, and a lot more intentional.
May this corner of the internet feel different. A place where you find something worthwhile, leave a little more inspired, and remember who you are instead of getting lost in the endless comparison the internet so often invites.
I believe we are created with infinite worth, unique gifts, and a purpose that’s entirely our own. I want this to be a place that celebrates that. Every time you visit, my hope is that you leave feeling a little lighter, a little more hopeful, and excited to build your own beautiful life.
A Little About Me
I’m Abi Ayres, and I live just outside Salt Lake City, Utah, with my husband, Ammon, our three kids, and our dog, Teddy.
Before I’m a creator, I’m a wife, a mom, and a disciple of Jesus Christ. My family will always be my greatest joy and my highest priority. Some of my favorite days are the ordinary ones—reading together, making dinner, working in the garden, or planning our next adventure.
At any given moment you’ll probably find me in the middle of a project, wandering through the garden, trying a new recipe, painting Delft tiles, or listening to an audiobook while doing all of the above.
I’ve never been very good at staying in one lane—and I think that’s part of the fun. I’m endlessly curious and genuinely love learning. Whether it’s reading a classic novel, growing a vegetable I’ve never planted before, writing a murder mystery, or perfecting the ultimate campfire dessert, I’m always chasing the next thing that makes everyday life a little richer.
I started sharing my life online as a young mom raising three little kids. As soon as Instagram Stories launched, I was hooked. I loved the everyday conversations and the connection they created.
Then one ordinary day, I got a haircut I wasn’t thrilled about and shared it in my stories like I always did. I had no idea that haircut would go viral or that tens of thousands of people I’d never met would suddenly begin following along.
Since then, my platform has far outgrown anything I ever imagined. More importantly, it’s become a community of women from different ages, backgrounds, faiths, and walks of life who all seem to believe one simple thing: the world is better when we discover who we are, use the gifts we’ve been given, and have the courage to let our light shine.
I’m so grateful you’re here. I hope you feel like you’re part of it, too!
A few things you’ll quickly learn about me:
What You’ll Find Here
This isn’t a website built around one niche, it’s built around one belief.
Identity → Worth → Purpose → Fear loses its grip.
When we know who we are, we stop living for everyone else’s approval. And when we stop living for everyone else’s approval, there’s far less room for fear, comparison, judgment, or hate. What we believe about ourselves inevitably spills into every relationship and every life we touch.
Everything you’ll find here has helped me become more fully who I was created to be. I hope it helps you do the same.
Around here you’ll find:
If it’s here, it’s because I believe it’s worth sharing.
What I Hope You Leave With
Whether you spend five minutes here or come back for years, I hope you leave remembering who you are. I hope you feel deeply loved, wonderfully capable, and inspired to become more fully who God created you to be. I hope your light shines brighter into the lives of those around you.
I’m cheering for you.
