I am Tina Edwards, the founder of Mountain Midlife Madness. After more than 25 years as a business analyst and professional problem-solver, I decided to apply those same skills to an entirely different kind of project: building a practical life on a wooded mountain property in East Tennessee.

I did not begin with a finished home, unlimited resources, or a perfect plan. I began with raw land, a shed, two cats, a red Jeep, plenty of tools, and a willingness to learn as I went.

Mountain Midlife Madness documents that process honestly. I share the projects, research, mistakes, adjustments, and hard-won solutions so other people can learn from the entire experience, not just the finished result. Those lessons become videos, workbooks, resources, and practical guides designed to help others build, grow, and figure things out for themselves.
