Alexandra

Alexandra is the creator and heart behind Inspired by…, built on connection, creativity, and real-life motherhood. Newly 30, she’s married to her once–high school best friend — a love story that didn’t officially begin until after college, but was meant to be all along. Together, they’re raising two wonderful children who keep their days full, joyful, and occasionally chaotic in the best way.
When she’s not writing or chasing little ones, Alexandra works as a dental tech, balancing precision by day with the beautifully unpredictable world of mom life at home. Her passion for storytelling — and for supporting other Orlando moms — is what inspired her to create a community where honesty, encouragement, and inspiration can thrive.
Through Inspired by This, Alexandra hopes every mom feels seen, understood, and welcomed, no matter what season of life she’s in.

Holly brings her signature honesty and heart to Inspired by…, drawing on years of connecting with women through her popular advice column, Holly’s Inbox. Now 25 and a single mom to a spirited three-year-old son, she’s navigating life in Orlando with grit, grace, and a sense of humor only motherhood can teach.
Juggling two jobs while raising her little one on her own, Holly knows firsthand what it means to show up every day — tired, determined, and full of love. Her writing is real, relatable, and rooted in the belief that every mom deserves support, encouragement, and a safe place to land.
Here, Holly shares stories from the trenches, hard-won wisdom, and the kind of compassion that makes you feel instantly understood. She’s proof that even in the busiest, most chaotic seasons, you can still find clarity, joy, and connection.

Lilly Anna Rose joins Inspired by… from her own successful corner of the internet, the Kissimmee Mom Blog. Originally from the charming seaside town of Portchester, England, Lilly Anna never expected that life — and love — would lead her to sunny Orlando. After marrying her American husband, Central Florida quickly became the heart of her family’s adventures.
By day, she works in the wedding department of a stationery company, where her love of calligraphy, design, and all things paper comes to life. Off the clock, you’ll usually find her crafting, exploring Orlando’s hidden gems, or soaking up the quiet moments of motherhood.
Lilly Anna brings her passion for creativity, DIY projects, and honest motherhood reflections to our Orlando Moms Blog community. With a cup of tea (or an iced latte in this Florida heat!) in hand, she invites readers to grow, create, and celebrate the beautifully imperfect journey of mom life right alongside her.
