Cara Alwill is a bestselling author, mentor, and publisher of feminine rebellion. With over 300,000 books sold in ten languages, she built her own global publishing empire long before partnering with traditional powerhouses like Penguin Random House. A decade after the viral success of her book Girl Code, Cara continues to lead women into their next era—with less hustle, more truth, and stories that actually mean something.
As the founder of Pink Ink Press and the creator of Hot Girl Writing House, Cara mentors women in turning their personal stories into powerful platforms, brands, and movements. Her work lives at the intersection of writing, identity, and visibility—guiding women to build unforgettable bodies of work rooted in self-trust, creative courage, and unapologetic voice.
Cara believes the most powerful brands aren’t built by chasing trends—they’re built by telling the truth. Through her writing, mentorship, and publishing work, she helps women turn their stories into books, platforms, and movements.
She is also the host of the acclaimed Cara Says It All podcast and the founder of The Tortured Bloggers Department, a sold-out NYC storytelling salon celebrating raw, real, and rebellious writing. Whether she’s helping a woman birth her first book or claim her voice on a larger stage, Cara’s mission is simple: elevate a new generation of women who tell the truth, build movements, and lead like they own the place.
