About

Hi! My name is Melissa and I’m a stay-at-home wife.

There they are, the words I never thought I’d say. I was always one of those people who felt that being a full-time working mom was my jam. To heck with that; things change!

Okay, so who is Stay At Home Wifestyle? I’m a mom in my mid-30s who, until recently, was in the high-pressure corporate real estate world for 15 years. I worked at all hours and my idea of relaxing was to do various mindless household chores. Yes, you read that right. Upon leaving my last role, after binge-watching a few of my favorite shows that had piled up on our DVR, I went to work again…within our home. I started by taking a look at our home finances and realized there was so much I could do to run them more efficiently. I also recognized there were many economic and financial principles that could be applied to all aspects of the Stay At Home Wifestyle and that’s how this site came to be.

 

My main goal is to empower you to turn your home into a business machine by using economics and finance to make decisions that will help you run your household more economically and powerfully. While this is my passion, I am also a wife and mother navigating the ups and downs of everyday life. I hope that I can bring you some entertainment and information that will keep you sane in your journey through this wonderful thing we call life.

 

Hopefully, you’ll visit often and if you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

 

XOXO

 

Melissa
