I'm Matilyn!
Christian, Artist, Tea Enthusiast, Betta Mom, Avid Reader, Plant Parent, and Southern Girl With Big Dreams
One Gift Started It All
My betta obsession began at six years old,
on an unforgettable trip to the pet store with my grandmother...
As we stood by the wall of colorful fish, a stunning teal betta, gently placed in my hands captured my heart.
I named him Blue Fin, and despite my early mistakes and inability to keep a tank up on my own, (Thanks Dad For The Help), Blue Fin flourished. He became even more precious to me after my grandmother passed away a year later.
I often find myself reflecting on that special day many years ago, wondering if my grandmother realized the incredible gift she
gave me—
A passion that continues to bring me joy every single day

When I'm Not Cleaning My Tanks,
You Can Find Me
Perusing the PLANTS at Home Depot, Curled up with a GOOD BOOK, Scouring Pinterest for NEW HAIRSTYLE ideas, or ORGANIZING my closet for the 50th time (I really do enjoy it).
I feel the most alive during fall, and spend all my time outdoors on the back porch with a cup of Chai.
My favorite thing about overcoming social anxiety, is now I can ask my local restaurant managers for plant cuttings!
I've always been a curious person. And thankfully Youtube and Google have been there to help me keep the intrusive thoughts from winning. I can see what a fork in the microwave does without actually blowing myself up!
I love food with LOADS of flavor. If it tastes like cardboard, I'm not having any of it!
As for hobbies, I’m obsessed with bettas and plants. There’s nothing I enjoy more than teaching others how to care for their bettas so they can thrive and live long, happy lives. It’s such a rewarding experience.
I'M SO GLAD YOU ARE
ALONG FOR THE RIDE!
