I’m Julie – welcome to The New Lighter Life! Once upon a time, I was all about the open road, sharing our family’s RVing adventures, gardening wins, and crafting fun. But life evolves, and so have I. These days, you’ll find me in the kitchen, where my passion for baking and clever kitchen tips has taken center stage.
I’m a mom of four, married to my love, Mark. After years of homeschooling and a shortish stint of exploring the country, I’ve settled into a new groove. Baking isn’t just a hobby—it’s my way of bringing warmth, creativity, and a little sweetness to our home (and hopefully yours too!). From perfecting sourdough to whipping up quick weeknight hacks, I’m here to share recipes, tips, and a sprinkle of real-life encouragement.
You can also catch me on my YouTube channel – RiseandBakewithJulie where I dive deeper into my favorite bakes. Whether you’re a seasoned baker or just looking for an easy win in the kitchen, I’m excited to have you along for the ride. Let’s make something delicious together!
Many Blessings to You!
