Biography
Kara is an experienced photographer, speaker, and the CEO of Whimsy Soul, a lifestyle website that earns more than 6 million readers annually. She is also a contributor to Yahoo Creators. She founded Whimsy Soul in 2015 after graduating from the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, in 2014 with a BA in Advertising and also a BA in Art. She is passionate about inspiring other women to live a life with whimsy, and has been creating powerful storytelling content online for 9+ years. Kara is renowned for her ability to uncover hidden gems in off-the-beaten-path adventures and for championing body positivity through her vibrant, size-inclusive fashion choices. Her motto, "Sips, Trips, and Colorful Fits," reflects her commitment to finding everyday magic in life. At the helm of whimsysoul.com, she leads a dedicated team of writers, meticulously crafting content that ignites wanderlust, imparts wellness insights, shapes fashion trends, and catalyzes beauty inspirations - all based on data-driven insights. Her expertise is not confined to the written word. Kara frequently shares her insights and industry knowledge through podcast appearances and speaking engagements. Her wealth of experiences and insights have been featured in notable publications such as The New York Times and Business Insider, further solidifying her reputation as a thought leader in the field. In 2023, Kara took her dedication to enhancing travel experiences to the next level by opening her first Whimsy Homes, a Short-Term Rental (Airbnb) in Arnold, California. This charming cabin quickly captured attention for its lively interiors, featuring green floors, a pink kitchen, and even ABBA wallpaper. Within just 30 days of opening its doors, it earned the distinction of being named a Guest Favorite by Airbnb. She has ambitious plans to expand her Whimsy Homes portfolio with additional properties in the near future . When not writing articles or leading team meetings, you can find Kara trying new wines (she’s WSET 2 certified), road-tripping around California or find-tuning her skincare routine.

As a witch, I’ll be sharing some predictions, insight, and inspiration on how you can most effectively nurture yourself and practice self-care this month based on the cosmos.
By Kara Harms| Yahoo Creators Verified The Fairmont San Francisco is more than just a beautiful hotel perched atop Nob Hill; it’s a cornerstone of the city’s history and culture. While its iconic tiki bar, the Tonga Room, draws plenty of buzz, and the holiday Gingerbread House is beloved by locals come Christmas time, the real crown jewel is their legendary 8th-floor Penthouse Suite.
By Kara Harms| Yahoo Creators Verified Every year, my husband and I make the pilgrimage from San Francisco to Sonoma County for what has become one of our favorite traditions: the Pliny the Younger release at Russian River Brewing Company. It’s not just about the beer (though, let’s be real, it’s absolutely about the beer); it’s the whole experience...the anticipation, the camaraderie in line, and the first sip of that golden, hoppy goodness that makes the wait and early wake up call so worth it.
