Ali Martell is an accomplished writer, editor, photographer, pop culturist, humorist, storyteller, parent, and style blogger — and Cheaper than Therapy is where her audience comes to listen.

Ranked #4 on the Reader’s Digest list of Canada’s Top Ten Mommy Bloggers, Ali has been sharing, teaching, chronicling, and reporting accessible retail fashion, parenting, culture, and lifestyle trends to moms in the blogosphere for over 14 years. She does this in the form of how tos, tips, reviews and heartwarming narratives that reach across Canada and the US.

That’s what makes Cheaper Than Therapy so unique. 

Ali’s sweet, often humourous parenting stories easily set the stage for relatable brands, events, and sponsorships. But they never lose their heart and their messages of endearing individual perspective. From shopping for the right skinny jeans to the beautiful and often bittersweet rites of passage of her children, Ali’s genuine, approachable narrative is what inspires community engagement, and makes her a resource and an expert for her audience. Those same qualities also make her an ideal brand ambassador, sponsored representative, and speaker to moms everywhere.

Ali is also a social media influencer with staying power. She is active on Pinterest, Flickr, and Twitter, with her primary focus and engagement stemming from Facebook, where followers enjoy realtime streaming and updates throughout the day.
