Meet Julia — a proud Navy spouse of nearly 10 years, supermom to two energetic kiddos, and the heart behind Blossoming Families, a business dedicated to strengthening family connections. With a doctorate in Developmental Psychology and a deep love for helping others, Julia wears many hats: family advocate, business owner, and published author, including a heartfelt children’s book about military deployments.

When she’s not working with families, writing her next book, or chasing her own little crew, you’ll probably find her deep into a new TV series, planning her next adventure, or sipping on a well-earned margarita.

Follow along and learn more about her work at @_blossomingfamilies — where growth, connection, and a little fun always come together.
