Meet Carol - The Stylish Dragon

If you can relate to that quote, you are in the right spot! HA! You can expect to hear about a variety of things in this comfy lil corner of the interwebs. There are some tabs that are always open in my brain and you’ll find those as my favorite topics – wheelchair/spoonie life, beauty/fashion, direct sales/home-based business, crafting (ALL.THE.CRAFTS), embracing the Geek within (I love fantasy-fiction & Cosplay), and all of the silly humor that makes life worth living! Find out more here!

Why The Stylish Dragon?

First, I am a Dragon. No, really, I am! My lunar horoscope says so! I’m part Vietnamese and grew up with the tradition and culture of embracing everything amazing about being born under the sign of the Dragon. Plus, the Dragon depicts so many things that I want to be and what I want to help others be – majestic, fierce, bold, confident, the list goes on.

So, where does ‘Stylish’ come in? I love all things fashion, beauty, and confidence. Style to me does not always mean that a person has to follow a certain trend or follow certain ‘rules’. A style is what you make of it and what makes you feel great and confident! My style changes constantly and will depend on my mood and what is most comfy for the day.

Who is Carol?

I find myself quite amusing, I love to laugh at myself and I really love to laugh with others. I have 2 amazing children, Steven, who is 21 and Cassidy who is 19. They have truly taught me just as much as I have taught them. I am lucky to be the soulmate to an amazing man, who happens to be the most loving, eternally understanding, and (thankfully) incredibly patient man in the ‘verse! Remind me to tell you how we met – it’s a cute and geeky story.

I have lived all over the United States – from the southern states of Tennesee & Texas to the northern states of Washington & Alaska. I lived on the eastern coast in North Carolina until moving to the ‘warmth’ of Arizona and finally added the west coast where I currently reside in California. I have worked a variety of professions, in a variety of fields, and that is where I pull my expertise and experience.

I have a giving heart and will often find that obscure silver thread in the darkest clouds. I also understand that the world is not all sunshine and happy songs and I’ve been through more than my fair share of thunderstorms but I do my best to not let them dictate my life. While I’m in a wheelchair, I do not let that define WHO I am and that is a big part of my journey as The Stylish Dragon.

I am excited to begin my blogging journey with all of you! Make sure to join my mailing list to stay up to date!
