There's always two sides to the coin if you have the patience to see.

I used to be in my 20s, be single, and work way less. This was conducive to way more hours on the mat and a super fit physique. I'm now 31, engaged, and travel every single week, which puts a major damper on any sort of routine.

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it isn't currently rocking someone else's world.

I deal with negative, nasty comments on a regular basis. It's difficult to digest because I've always been sensitive and it's a slap in the face to have someone respond cruely when you're trying to lift people up. It's been a huge lesson for me.

My motto in life is 'aim true'. It came from my love of Artemis, the goddess of the hunt. She inspired me to sport a gold arrow around my neck because it reminded me of her strength and that I can always hit my mark when I set intention, follow what makes my heart beat, and aim true. The arrow was a reminder that I can cut through any obstacles, that I have power, beauty, and the ability to choose love over fear every moment of my life.

Focus on sharing your story and affecting the people that are hungry for your light.

Happiness is a state a mind, not a dress size.
