who am i and why this blog

Amber and Yarrow is a cozy lifestyle and personal blog — a space for life updates, slow living, hobbies, reflections, parenting, recipes, and whatever else I feel like sharing.

If you’re tired of algorithm-driven, SEO-optimized content and miss the personal, human side of the internet, you’ll feel right at home here. This is a place for small joys, gentle reflections, and everyday life shared with a personal touch.

I’m Naila — a nurse, mom, wife, creative spirit, and lifelong lover of cozy things. I’ve always loved old-school blogging — the kind of personal, unpolished spaces where real life and real voices shine through. After years of chasing productivity and perfection, I’m learning to slow down, heal from burnout, and savor the simple pleasures of daily life. Amber and Yarrow is my online journal — part diary, part cozy lifestyle blog, part reflection space. I write about whatever’s on my mind or in my hands: parenting, hobbies, recipes, slow living, burnout recovery, and glimpses of the imperfect beauty in everyday moments.

Thank you for visiting — I hope you’ll stay awhile.
