'A Coat Of Yellow Paint': Why Mom-Blog Influencer Taza Moved Her Family To Phoenix

Fourteen years ago, when Naomi Davis started her blog “Love Taza," the word “influencer” didn’t exist. At least not when it came to social media. In fact, the phrase “social media” might not have meant much to anyone at that time either.

But in the last decade-plus, Davis’ blog has become something of an empire in the mom-blogging, influencer space, growing a business with the now multi-billion-dollar industry.

Now, Davis and her family of seven have relocated from New York City to the Phoenix area, and she’s out with her first book, "A Coat of Yellow Paint: Moving Through the Noise to Love the Life You Live."

The Show spoke with her to learn how it all got started.
