Caryn Sullivan is a wife, mother, writer, public speaker, former media executive, and cancer survivor who always finds a reason to smile.
An imperfect perfectionist, Caryn tirelessly seeks wholesome and reputable methods to improve her family’s overall health and well-being. With a storytelling-like style that’s easily consumable for the busy woman, her writing chronicles her enthusiastic search for a more-zen lifestyle.
As a longtime soap opera enthusiast and 17-plus year veteran of the sports and media industries, Caryn brings entertainment and great character to her daily life. She’s been seen dressed in a train costume while reading stories to her son’s class, leaving small notes behind to make her husband smile, and writing silly poems to motivate friends and co-workers.
A former Hostess Snowballs addict, Caryn now has a plant-based nutrition certification and a new-found love for green juices, avocados and hot yoga. She’s a regular contributor to HuffPost, Thrive Global and WTNH-TV News Channel 8 and has been seen on The Dr. Oz Show, Home & Family, HuffPost Live, Fox CT and News12 Connecticut as well as on her blog, PrettyWellness.com and YouTube channel. Caryn lives in Connecticut with her husband and son.
