Not everyone can or will love you. You could run a cotton candy and unicorn farm and someone's gonna think you're an asshole. Everyone's fighting their own battle and it often has nothing to do with you.

No cheating, clean up your self-induced fear act, and replace it with what you love.

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.

There's room enough for everyone to thrive.

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

I don't define myself by my body's ability to execute gorgeous asana anymore. I'm all about taking care of my temple and understanding that its requirements change with age and time.

I can be a bit of an overachiever and always dance that line of balance between giving myself to work versus giving time to myself and loved ones.
