**Hi, I’m Paulina!**

*educator, designer, & full-time foodie*
I'm a midwest girl through & through. Born in Texas, raised in Iowa, & living in Kansas. Sharing healthy living, educating others on the clean beauty industry, recipe developing, creating community wherever I go, & mid-century modern anything are all things that set my heart on fire!
My day job is as a mama & clean beauty advocate, but my nightlife consists of baking chocolate chip cookies, hosting friends new & old, or indulging in a new dish or cocktail in my city of Kansas City!
I met my husband & best friend, Ben, playing intramural volleyball at Iowa State University & we've been married since 2016. You could say it was love at first *spike!* You can see some of my favorite photos of us below!
My relationship with Jesus is the most life-giving & transformational & I hope to share His love & hope through all I do on here & in real life!

Here are a few get-to-know-me questions for ya!

What are you most likely re-watching? The Office, The Holiday, or The Established Home.

How do you take your coffee? This is a very important question! At home: with a hefty scoop of collagen & a splash of cream. At a coffee shop: oat milk matcha latte or flat white.

What’s your favorite country you’ve visited? Austria because of the Alps, spätzel, & my family’s heritage.

Why did you start Paulina Comes Clean? I have been dreaming of starting a blog/ online website for too many years now & finally decided it was time! For too long I let fear hold me back (and sometimes still do!), but I decided it was time to move forward anyway and I’m excited to have a little space online. My hope is to use this as a community builder & creative outlet.

What Bible verse is giving you life & hope right now? “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.” Romans 15:13
