Blair Sharp, Women’s Health Writer

 https://www.linkedin.com/in/blair-sharp-64b02b208/

Qualifications:

  • Psychometrist at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota
  • Content writer and creator with 5+ years of online writing experience
  • Mom of one

Experience

Blair has over a decade of healthcare experience, with a strong psychology and mental health background—spanning over twenty years. This, combined with her own life experiences, helps her approach sensitive topics with empathy and genuine insights. Blair started writing for fun at a local mom blog in 2019, and now you can find her work in national publications like Business Insider, The Bump, Understood, and Rescripted.

Forget complex jargon and complicated explanations—Blair’s writing style is like having a conversation with a friend: straightforward, honest, and relatable. She breaks down information to empower and connect with the average person, building community and reminding readers they’re not alone.

Her own life—including going alcohol-free in 2018 and getting her ADHD diagnosis at age 37 in 2023—has been a huge part of her self-discovery and inspired her to embrace her unique self. She calls herself an extroverted introvert who aims for a happy life with genuine connections. Blair balances her writing with her role as a Psychometrist at the Mayo Clinic, where she does cognitive assessments.

About

Blair is a wife, mom, and writer living in Rochester, Minnesota. Mental health and family-focused content are her JAM. When she’s not writing, you can find her binge-watching reality TV shows and crime documentaries while devouring a charcuterie board. Blair is a homebody who loves canceled plans and sharing too many reels with her friends. She enjoys shopping online for things she doesn’t need and making fun videos with her adorable rescue dog, Roman (find them on Instagram @romansdoglife).
