Slow down

Focus on the essential

Connect the important things in life

Responding to the increasing pace, materialism, and detachment of today's society, Everthrive emphasizes the importance of living intentionally, eliminating distractions, and choosing less so that life can be so much more.

Hi! I’m Ali Cornish, voice behind Everthrive.

I am a writer whose work and life is rooted in minimalism, wellness, and lifelong learning. In 2017, I was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS), an incurable autoimmune disease affecting my spine and joints. After suffering from long bouts of pain and immobility, I chose to redouble my commitment to a minimalist way of living. Through eliminating distractions, saying "no" to unnecessary obligations, and focusing on my health, I was able to put my AS symptoms into remission.

Since my diagnosis, I have become a wife and a mother, and live with my family and pet hermit crab in Fort Collins, CO. I am currently writing a book on how adopting a minimalist lifestyle can help all people live a healthy and meaningful life, whether they have an autoimmune disease or not.
