Meet this weeks Tastemaker is Brooke Jensen! Brooke is a content creator who loves using her platform to work with small businesses, like Mestiza.

Hi! My name is Brooke Jensen and I’m a lifestyle blogger at The Broke Brooke! I’ve been married to my husband, Andrew, for 6 years. We have one little girl, Charleston, who is 3, and a Baby BOY due in June! We could not be more excited! 

Brooke wears the Flora Mini Dress in 3D Blue Floral Lace.

As someone who thrives off being around people, this past year was especially difficult. However, I never dreamed this space I’ve created on the internet would provide so much joy and connection to others! I’ve met so many amazing women and moms through blogging that I now consider true friends! 

I used to be a CPA (Certified Public Accountant) and would spend my days full of numbers and spreadsheets. I yearned for a creative outlet to share my fashion finds and things I loved!

The most rewarding aspect of what I do is helping other women find things they LOVE! Nothing makes me happier than receiving a message that I helped find that perfect dress, children’s birthday toy or home decor item! 

I think investing in yourself means investing in your own future by taking the time to develop your skills, continuing to push yourself by learning new things, knowing your value/worth, and most importantly investing in your overall well-being!  

One of the best things about blogging has been connecting with so many amazing women-owned businesses! It is so important to me that we take the time to lift each other up and provide that constant source of support for each other! 

I was in awe when I received my Mestiza dress in the mail! All of the details and craftsmanship are so beautiful in person! I truly never dreamed I could feel this beautiful at 9 months pregnant!
