About

My name is Carly Runia Red— This site began as a blog for one of the behavioral health companies my husband and I founded in 2012: bloomforwomen.com.

I was the blog’s primary contributor and editor but now the company, as a whole, has grown beyond our imagined boundaries— and I now use this space to publish my own thoughts.

My favorite people in life include my so charming spouse Eric, my 4 feisty, yet tender kiddies and mine and Eric’s large extended families. After living in Portland, Oregon for much of our married life, we are back settled by our families amidst the Greater Rocky Mountains.
