Meet Chloe
A lifelong venture capital investor turned a recent love for working with her hands into a cookie baking company, selling her gluten-free cookie dough on Instagram (@cookiesandsteak). Having left NYC officially when the pandemic hit, Chloe (mom to eight month old Beau!) has never looked back, believing Westport to be a little slice of heaven she feels so fortunate to have found. In her free time (while not baking!), Chloe loves a good beach run, a glass of red wine, and laughing with family and friends. She was a lacrosse player in college, and now spends her days having coffee with some of the top tech entrepreneurs in the world, and her nights with her family and the cookie Dough! Nothing could be better! Welcome to Westport Chloe; we’re so thrilled to have you – and your cookie dough!

Meet Wynter
If this last year has taught us anything, it’s that spending excess time with family can be HARD (while simultaneously wonderful), and also that we owe It to ourselves to pursue work that fulfills us. A lifelong actress and mom of two, Wynter’s newest movie, G-D Committee (featuring Julia Stiles and Kelsey Grammar) comes out soon, and most recently, she has also decided to pursue a long-time interest to become a family and marriage therapist and will start school this fall! Wynter left LA 12 years ago to join her husband in CT, and hasn’t looked back. She has loved the lazy mornings of this past year and enjoying her husband’s cooking, though longs for the days of travel and time with girlfriends! Thank you Wynter for reminding us all to take care of us; while it’s not always easy, it’s more important than ever!

Meet Aimee
Mom to son Jayme, Aimee has been described as a “fertility detective” following her passion to help women live their best and most vital life. This started with her working to help women mentally, physically and emotionally through acupuncture and has grown as she authored three books, and now has her own organic skincare line, Aimee Raupp Beauty. She originally dreamed of being a doctor or scientist before she turned to the study of Chinese medicine, and the rest is history. Over the years, Aimee has helped thousands of women in her clinics, and is now running online forums to provide support to many who need It. Her products are handmade and fly off the shelves, with some favorites including her hand sanitizer, Mag-ese Oil, and Lip Butter!

She is kindhearted, creative, and credits her entrepreneurial spirit to her parents, both entrepreneurs before It was “cool” to be one!

How to Work Out at Home During Coronavirus Pandemic from Local Fitness Expert!
Welcome to our new normal. I’m a mom of two young boys in elementary school in Westport, CT, and due to a big outbreak of coronavirus here, we’re pretty much on lockdown. Schools and gyms are closed and restaurants are open for pick up/take out only. So, in addition to being a working mom, I’m now a homeschooler of two kids, a speech and occupational therapist, and a music, art, and Spanish teacher. One thing that’s keeping me sane (at least a little?!) during this unprecedented time is MOVEMENT. I am super grateful that it’s almost spring, and the weather is allowing us to get outdoors and PLAY. Even while social distancing, there are so many ways to keep moving!
