I can be highly competitive, which is ultimately why I chose yoga as a career. I thought it would drain the competitive drive out of me and allow me to be present and content. The yoga world has become highly competitive since then and it used to drive me crazy until I realized there's work for everyone.

Own your beauty whatever shape or form it comes in.

My biggest struggles have been my biggest teachers.

Cooking brings me so much joy. I love everything, down to the execution of the plate to picking out fresh ingredients at the market. It makes me deeply grateful and aware of where our food comes from and how feeding people is another way of saying, "I love you."

Take your time. There's no rush to be good or renowned.

There is plenty of room for us all to succeed and carve our own path.

I hope to encourage people to take flight on their mats, in their lives, and in their hearts.
