Mom influencer Morgan Pederson is giving followers a behind-the-scenes look at her life as a content creator.
In the second episode of Mom Famous, a new documentary-style series from PEOPLE and Parents, the Utah-based influencer shares her story of being a creative and energetic child to full-time content creator.
"Growing up I knew I wanted to be an interior designer, I used to take my mom's Ethan Allen catalogs, cut out all this stuff, make my own mood boards, I had all this energy as a young kid," says Pederson.
Pederson then got her start in the fashion world in New York where she lived for 10 years and she says she and her husband both "found ourselves."
"It helped being the Utah girl in New York," she says. "Two years turned into 10 years. After I gave birth to my second [child], we came to Utah and I started to realize with two kids now, Utah really is a great place."

On Jan. 7, 2021, a group of forensics experts working for lawyers allied with President Donald Trump spent eight hours at a county elections office in southern Georgia, copying sensitive software and data from its voting machines.

Under questioning last month for a civil lawsuit, a former Georgia Republican Party official named Cathy Latham said in sworn testimony that she briefly stopped by the office in Coffee County that afternoon. She said she stayed in the foyer and spoke with a junior official about an unrelated matter at the front desk.

“I didn’t go into the office,” Latham said, according to a transcript of her deposition filed in court. She said she had seen in passing a pro-Trump businessman who was working with the experts. She said they chatted for “five minutes at most” — she could not remember the topic — and she left soon after for an early dinner with her husband.
