ABOUT The CoNTRIBUTOR
ULA & US
Meet Christy + Ives of ULA and Us!
ULA and Us which stands for Upper Left America and Us, is a lifestyle brand on a mission to help you prioritize self care or what we call conquering your summit. As new moms, we have learned that modern motherhood is messy, yet beautiful and our goal is to cut through the confusion and provide research-backed knowledge to live a more healthy, fulfilled life.
We believe that it all starts with taking care of yourself, whether that’s getting outside, sweating, or eating damn good, nutritious food — we are here to simplify and share our struggles and successes along the way.
We hope you discover that working out doesn’t have to be confined to a gym or membership, and eating well doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice taste.
