About Julie

joie de vi·vre
ˌZHwä də ˈvēvrə/
noun (French)
exuberant enjoyment of life

I’m Julie Rose. I have over a decade of professional experience at two TV stations and then corporate America, specializing in communications, marketing, and social media.

In 2017, I experienced a soul-shattering layoff, took a 1-month trip abroad, and had my heart broken, which spurred me to start my blog and YouTube channel. Sharing my vulnerabilities, self-discoveries, and practical philosophies on love, solo travel, and career helped me re-prioritize, heal, and completely change my outlook on life.

Sometimes residing in Phoenix, Arizona, and sometimes on the road — 20 countries, 32 states and counting! — I’m a mobile, modern woman living the nomadic, minimalist life in pursuit of the joie de vivre, prioritizing passions over possessions, and documenting it all along the way. I hope that by relating to my experiences, you may be inspired and empowered to implement positive change in your life too.

To get to know me, visit my YouTube channel, follow me on Instagram, or read my latest blogs. I’d love your feedback — let’s get connected!
