Carrie Marshall (formerly Carrie Kellenberger) is a Canadian writer, business and operations strategist, patient advocate, and multidisciplinary creative best known for her long-running publication, My Several Worlds. Since 2007, she has built a career through writing, content strategy, digital publishing, systems development, and online community building. Over the past two decades, Carrie has worn many hats — travel and culture writer, educator, entrepreneur, communications director, recruiter, editor, and creative consultant — while living and working internationally for more than 20 years in Taiwan. Today, her work focuses on storytelling, disability advocacy, creative projects, and helping businesses streamline their content, systems, and online presence with clarity and heart. Carrie is endlessly curious about people, culture, design, and the small details that make spaces feel alive. She loves books, art, gardening, flower arranging, paper crafts, and creating cozy, slightly whimsical environments. She is also deeply devoted to her cats, cries over animal videos far too easily, and still firmly dislikes cooking. After nearly two decades navigating complex chronic illness, her work increasingly explores resilience, identity, healthcare systems, creativity, and what it means to rebuild a life while living inside a changing body. Her hope is simple: to create work that informs, comforts, connects, and reminds people they are not alone.
