Fun Fact:

I have an adventure cat named Forest, who joined my family in a campground when she was 7 weeks old. Forest can often be found riding shotgun with Carey while she's wheeling her Subaru.

Why the Rebelle? Why now?

The Rebelle has become my family, my passion, my adventure and my challenge. It keeps me humble, focused, and is an absolutely necessary reset for life now. The Rebelle is the hardest yet most rewarding thing I've done solely for myself. It is a space that allows me to push my limits, learn to pivot when things don't go as planned, and receive the unwavering support of an amazing group of women.

Who, or what, inspires you most?

People who are kind and share their skills with others without judgment.
