Hello, friends! I’m Miranda Schultz, the blogger behind The Plus Life!
Thanks for joining me! I am so excited to welcome you to my little corner of the internet. I hope you’ll stick around, subscribe to emails, and follow me on Instagram so we can get to know one another better and keep in touch.
Clearly there are a number of amazing plus size bloggers/YouTubers/influencers out there, and I’m honored to join them in creating content that inspires and equips other plus size women to live their best lives.
So, why The Plus Life? There are few reasons…
- Representation matters! Much progress has been made in plus size fashion but there is still SO MUCH WORK to do… especially for those of us over a size 24. I want to see more people like me wearing beautiful clothing. For a long time, I complained about what I WISHED I was seeing online… but then I realized that there’s nothing stopping me from BEING what I want to see online.
- Community is everything! Over the past couple of years since I launched my blog, I’ve realized that this is all about WAY more than fashion or about home decor or about any other specific topic we discuss. The relationships I’ve created with my readers through DMs and emails has been incredible. Now through The Plus Life Community on Facebook we are able to ALL come together and get to know one another, share resources, get pep talks, chat about style and great deals… It’s wonderful. I hope you’ll join us!
- Confidence is key! One of the most commonly asked questions I have always gotten is how I became so confident and how others can do the same. I have made it my mission to help inspire women in their confidence journeys, but it’s truly about so much more than confidence. Self-worth is the core that we must focus on before confidence can come. It’s a journey, for sure, and one that I look forward to walking with you here.

Meet Miranda
Hi!! I’m Miranda Schultz. I’m a 30-something wife, mama, daughter, friend, businesswoman and now blogger! I was raised in a small town in Eastern Kentucky and studied business at the University of Kentucky (GO CATS!). A few years after college I decided to uproot my life and move to New York to pursue new, exciting career opportunities and to be near my then long-distance boyfriend (and now husband) Kevin. After seven years in New York, Kevin and I moved back to Kentucky and now live in NKY near Cincinnati, OH.
In my limited free time I love to read, spend time with family and friends, watch HGTV and Bravo, travel, be outside as much as possible – preferably near a body of water – and shop.
I look forward to the opportunity to get to know you better and share more about my own life and things I’ve learned so far with you.
XOXO,
Miranda
