About Shelli

Hi! I’m Shelli Merino and I want to say thanks so much for visiting the site!  Lady Boss Survival was born out of a desire to share my love of the outdoors with women.  It wasn’t enough for it to be a travel or adventure blog, it must make a difference.  I also wanted it to be practical and applicable to women from all walks of life.  As women we experience the world in very similar ways…we battle with the same things…no matter what the color of our skin, our nationality, or the background we come from.  Whether we have children or no children, married, dating or are single…I believe that women all face similar challenges throughout their lives.

One thing that I love seeing is an independent woman who can navigate life with the confidence to know that she can take on anything.  This does not mean that she isn’t scared or insecure or unsure.  It just means that she knows that whatever comes her way she knows she can figure it out, and that it won’t deter her from her hopes, dreams, and aspirations.

I want to teach women to embrace every aspect of what makes us women, while at the same time have the confidence to take on new challenges and risks. All women want to feel beautiful and to belong…they want to be captivating.  We want to feel and experience adventure.  We want our voices to be heard and our hearts to be known.

If you’re like me, the graceful and feminine gene skipped a generation…or perhaps your sister was the one that lucked out by getting all of it! 😊 This led to many awkward moments as a teenager and a young woman, until my husband came along and showed me that the very things I was insecure about, are what he loves the most about me.

It does not matter if we are princesses or tomboys …we are all women…and our hearts desire a life that is fun and full of meaning and love…and that the contributions we make in this world leave an impact.  I have found that when I share my life and my journey, and the things I’ve learned along the way, that women feel empowered and understood.  So, that is what I’m here to do…to empower you with both skills and inspiration that you can apply to your own life, and to live it fearlessly!
