About Me

Hi! My name is Heather Montgomery. Welcome to my little corner of the world. I have been blogging since 2009, and can’t believe the ride it has taken me on! From new friends to new business opportunities, it has been a lot of fun, but let’s back up.

I have been married to my husband Bobby for 15 years, and we have a beautiful, sassy seven year old daughter named Emma Kate, as well as her sidekick, our Goldendoodle pup, Dolly.

We live in Knoxville, TN, but have also lived in Mississippi and Florida! I was born and raised in New Orleans, so the southern roots run real deep in my family (yall!)

On top of blogging, I am also an influencer marketing manager specializing in talent relations. I love to help others (in particular women and moms) make their mark and earn money from home. I am also an online course creator. I wrote my first e-course, Social Side Hustle: 21 Days to Becoming a Social Media Manager, in 2017. I also self published my own book: The Average Girl’s Guide to Living an Above Average Life, in 2016. In 2018, I released the Ultimate Blogger Guide for Working With Brands.

I like to stay busy and am always creating and doing new things. I love to teach and help people, which is one of the reasons I started blogging to begin with. My family is pretty silly, and we try not to take ourselves too seriously.

When not working, I love to watch football, post on social media (I guess that technically is working?) and travel. Anywhere. We LOVE to travel and show Emma Kate the beautiful world and let her experience new things. The whole family is also very into sports and fitness, and we enjoy running races together and playing sports. (Fun fact: hubby and I met playing beach volleyball in college!) We have run many races together all over the country, and Emma Kate has even done some kids races with runDisney! I also love Jesus, texting, my family, and the good ‘ole USA. You could say I’m a pretty typical southern girl loving life and helping people along the way whenever I can.

If you have any questions or would like to work with me (I love collaborations and press trips!), please shoot me an email at heather@heatherslookingglass.com. I look forward to hearing from you! Please find below a list of my more recent press and media events. Thanks for stopping by. Be sure to follow me on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest!

I’ve had an interesting first few days of being I’ve had an interesting first few days of being in my 40’s. A bit of a nerve wracking medical week I guess you could say. 

Have you ever had an MRI? Do you suffer from hearing loss? 👂

✨ This is what radiance looks like ✨ #ad Sin ✨ This is what radiance looks like ✨ #ad 

Since turning forty, I’ve been all about simple changes that help me feel strong, healthy, and confident — inside and out. 

Adding Organixx Collagen to my coffee each morning has been one of the easiest ways to support my skin, hair, and joints while juggling busy mom life. It blends right in and makes me feel like I’m doing something good for myself every single day. 

Because for me, it’s not just about looking good — it’s about feeling my best, staying active, and showing up for the people and moments that matter most. 
Radiance starts from within, and @organixxco helps make it part of my everyday routine.

I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like t I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like this has me reflecting—not just on what I’ve accomplished, but on who I’m becoming.

I’ve always been driven to achieve, to push, to prove. But lately, I’ve been learning to celebrate presence over performance, connection over perfection.

Today wasn’t about checking a box or hitting a goal—it was about pausing, feeling grateful, and eating a ridiculous amount of cake with people I love. And honestly? That feels like growth.

Here’s to 40: more aligned, more grounded, and still a little extra. 😉

Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 Big milestones always Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 

Big milestones always make me pause and ask:
What am I proud of?
What needs to shift?
Am I becoming the woman I want to be?

💡 As an Enneagram 3, I’ve always been wired to achieve — and for a long time, that meant shaping myself into whatever version I thought people would like best.

There are tables where it’s clear I’m not welcome — and that used to wreck me.
But at 40? I don’t do cliques. I don’t do shrinking or contorting to be accepted. 👀

I’ll always be kind. I’ll always be respectful. But I’m done dragging a chair to tables that were never built for me.

I’m moving over. Making space.
Creating my own table.
