Hello & Welcome

Polly & Rachel

Our names are Polly Conner (left) and Rachel Tiemeyer (right). Every year millions of women visit Thriving Home to find recipes and resources to equip moms to thrive at home. We’re cookbook authors, freezer meal evangelists, and a trusted resource for busy moms.

We’re here to help you get dinner on the table.

We jokingly claim the title “freezer cooking evangelists”, because freezer cooking has transformed how both our families live. Whereas we once subsisted on frozen pizzas and take out, today we enjoy delicious meals at home regularly and spend more time around the dinner table with our families. And, we love helping others do the same!

our mission

Our mission is to help your home thrive, one delicious meal at a time.

We absolutely believe good food can bring families together and help us feel our best.
