Chantel Beidleman

54 POSTS 5 COMMENTS
Born and raised in the Aloha state and a traveling gypsy at heart, Chantel Beidleman left the nest fresh out of high school and headed off for college in sunny Southern California. Almost a decade later, she met and fell madly in love with her hubby, who whisked her off to the great Midwest. After five brutal winters in Nebraska, Chantel realized that home will always be where the ocean is (and the snow isn’t), so off to Jacksonville they went, where this Hawaiian girl now spends her days as a stay-at-home wrangler to her two baby bears. Before becoming a household CEO, she joyfully spent her time as the Program Assistant Director of a preschool. Digging deep into wellness and health is her jam, and spontaneous dance parties with her kiddos are what sing to her soul. Chantel is wildly passionate about advocating for her son, who lives with multiple severe food allergies. You can find her out and about daily as she is a self-proclaimed busybody who loves hitting the beach or exploring new spots in town while homeschooling her kiddos. If you ever see this fast-paced mama on the go, say hi because she is always up for meeting new people and making new friends!
