Audie Metcalf is the award-winning Editor-in-chief and Chief Creative Officer of The Candidly—a wellness brand for people who sort of hate wellness brands. 

Audie has 15 years of experience working with Fortune 500 companies, digital start-ups, and lifestyle brands, most notably as head of digital and editorial for Los Angeles magazine.

Audie has a passion for cilantro, Fleabag, profound emotional growth, and ping pong. She writes a lot about how to do your own makeup without wanting to cry, and general ways to be a slightly less-horrible person. She believes in self-care but the phrase “self-care” can be a hair difficult for her.  

She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, stepdaughter, and dog. She has a deeply codependent relationship with one of them.
