Q&A With THRIVE | Suwanee Community Manager Phoebe Vaughn

The heart and soul of THRIVE are our Community Managers, ringleaders and ringmasters rolled into one. They are here to rock your world, simplify your life, restore your faith in humanity, and basically make your THRIVE experience a bowl of cherries. Minus the pits. Take a moment to meet one of the family.

What’s your hometown?

My hometown is Cumming, Georgia. Although my family enjoyed moving a lot when I was younger, we settled in the best state on earth.

Dogs or cats?

The only right answer is dogs! I just got my first rescue last August and she is my pride and joy. Her name is Alani … yes, named after the energy drink LOL.

Who’s a good girl? Alani is!

Cake or pie or cookies?

If tiramisù is a cake, then cake … but that’s the only “cake” I will eat.

Most used app on your phone?

Weirdly enough, LinkedIn or the usual Instagram/TikTok.

Sunrise or Sunset?

Depends on when I wake up, but nine times out of 10 I will say sunset since I don’t like waking up early.

What’s your musical jam?

I LOVE Akon, whether it’s listening to him while working out or car rides with the girls, we will forever have that bumping.

What song do you want everyone to know?

I want everyone to know “Beautiful Girls” by Sean Kingston … it’s a must listen.

What’s your favorite neighborhood shop/restaurant?

My favorite neighborhood restaurant is Los Rios! You can seriously never go wrong with Mexican food.

Do you have a nickname?

My nicknames are Phoebs, Phoebster and Pheeble.

What’s your favorite comedy film?

Dumb and Dumber. You probably won’t want to sit next to me to watch it, though, because I have it memorized by heart.

Most prized possession?

My most prized possession is my Bible that I have had since I was younger, it is highlighted back to front and looks very much vintage now.

What’s your guilty pleasure?

Queso. Whenever I have had a crazy day it’s always my first resort.

Where’s your happy place?

My happy place is the gym! I love being in the gym community and lifting weights.

Whom do people say you look like?

People say I look like my aunt Courtney … but maybe it’s just the blonde hair 😉

Double take: Phoebe and her aunt Courtney.

What’s your motto or favorite saying?

“It’s a part of life.” I think this goes for just about anything and gets me through each day LOL.

What absolutely excites you right now?

Right now I am super excited to graduate college and start this full-time job here at THRIVE! I am so so so thankful.

What skills do you think it takes to be a great CM?

To be hospitable and social. To be a CM you have to be a friend to all and have a heart that is centered around people!

You wouldn’t know it to look at me, but …

I am a BIG foodie! I love trying new foods, new restaurants, and I can eat anything you put in front of me!
