Monica PHAM

“Food and lifestyle influencer; founder and personality behind ‘Food With Monica”

Welcome phamily! This has been long-awaited and overdue. Nevertheless, we’ve made it so make yourself comfortable, grab something from the fridge and kick your feet up to relax. Mi casa es su casa!

Looking back at 2016 I could’ve never imagined I’d be here today. Traveling, connecting with people of various walks of life, dining in the hottest restaurants around the world, eating some of the most amazing meals to ever touch my taste buds all while living life as a food blogger. To say it’s been an incredible journey would be an understatement. I’m constantly in awe and so thankful I get to wake up everyday to pursue my passion. But, I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t GO FOR IT. I didn’t wait for the perfect moment because truly, the perfect moment doesn’t exist. It’s a leap of faith. You just have to start and figure out the rest as you take each step forward. In the early stages of FoodWithMonica, I didn’t have the best photography or editing skills, but I learned along the way. I knew my purpose was to reach the masses and the structure of a standard job wasn’t the path to fulfill that purpose. Daily, I’ve worked hard to improve and enhance my skills. I’m a student of life, forever learning and developing into the best version of myself.

 My happiness comes from each of you. Being able to inspire others, spread kindness and positivity whether it’s through my words, my photography or over a shared meal. My heart is full when I know I’ve helped someone smile or feel good, and that’s my goal to create as many memories with each of you as I can while on this earth. To my phamily, thank you. Thank you for every like, every comment, every encounter, and every laugh. These interactions with you are priceless and to have you all on this journey with me is a blessing.

If there’s anything I can encourage you all to do, it’s to find what sets your soul on fire. Find what makes you happiest and go for it.  Life is too short to wait. Your hesitation will eventually become your “what if.” In whatever you decide to pursue, always choose love and always choose kindness.

I am here to inspire others while floating on this big rock called Earth, a place where the office can be anywhere and everywhere -- as long as there is food.
