Julie Edelman is the bestselling author of "The Accidental Housewife: How to Overcome Housekeeping Hysteria One Task at a Time," a book born from her journey through life's unexpected turns—love, marriage, and motherhood. As a wife, mother, and advertising executive juggling multiple roles, Julie found herself overwhelmed until she developed her own unconventional approach to home management. Her practical solutions, delivered with signature humor and optimism, resonated with women nationwide, creating a community of kindred spirits and launching her into the spotlight as a trusted home-keeping expert. Julie became a familiar face on national television, appearing regularly on Today, Good Morning America, The View, Inside Edition, while also reaching audiences through iHeart Radio and ABC Audio Networks.

 

In winter 2023, Julie faced her most challenging detour: a stage 1 breast cancer diagnosis. True to form, she tackled this journey with unwavering positivity and her trademark humor—haute heels and all. Now over a year in remission, Julie considers herself blessed and has channeled this experience into her latest achievement: her debut women's fiction novel, "The Accidental Sisterhood." New York Times bestselling author Jenna Blum praised the work as "Witty and unexpected. Think Liane Moriarty's Big Little Lies with a Dexterized dash of Sex and the City."

 

With "The Accidental Sisterhood," Julie continues her passion for inspiring others through life's unexpected turns. As a speaker and advocate, she shares her message about the transformative power of positivity and sisterhood, demonstrating how life's detours can lead to unexpected dreams. Her impact extends to the cancer community, where she serves as an advocate for the Moffitt Cancer Center. Julie was their featured survivor speaker at the 2024 National Board of Directors Meeting, delivered the keynote address at Hooters' 2024 International Women's Day luncheon and most recently was asked to share her story at The Kareem Jackson Foundation’s Pretty in Pink event.

 

Julie makes her home in St. Petersburg, Florida, close to her son Luke—living proof of a life richly blessed, deeply loved, and lived to the fullest. Her journey embodies the power of perseverance, sisterhood and the beauty of embracing life's accidental detours with humor, hope and in high heels.
