Carolyn Steber

Carolyn is the lifestyle and wellness writer at Bustle, where she’s been on staff since 2015. Her articles span the genres of dating, friendships, health, fitness — and everything in between.

When she isn’t covering the latest TikTok trend, she can be found writing about a wellness hack, a viral workout, or the magical world of astrology and tarot.

After interning at Health magazine, Carolyn graduated from The College of New Jersey with a degree in Journalism & Professional Writing. She also studied at Muhlenberg College where she majored in English and psychology.

In her spare time, Carolyn is a fan of trekking around the city with her dog, getting her hands dirty in pottery class, and playing a nerdy round of “mind meld” with her improv team.
