About Us

Hello from Athens, Georgia! I’m Carolyn — former basketball player at Davidson College, pickleball lover, and longtime health-minded human. In the year prior to turning 50, I started to pay attention to how many chemicals were sneaking into my home and started making small, intentional changes, beginning with the cleaning products I used every day. Traditional cleaners gave me headaches, and since I work and cook from home, I wanted safer options.

With a family history of cancer and friends diagnosed too young, reducing my daily toxic load became non-negotiable.

So I created Frankly Real — a company dedicated to truly organic home and beauty products I trust in my own space and on my skin — now I am excited to share them with you.
