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.

Take your time, teach what you love, be unabashedly you, and try not to compare yourself to someone who's been teaching longer than you.

I take my fearless approach into my teaching by helping my students to realize their potential through yoga. I have a gift for making difficult poses accessible and reminding people that postures, and anything in life, are only as hard as you make them out to be.

Not everyone will love you, and that's completely OK.

It's important to remember that there are many different types of people, styles of teaching and that we won't agree with all of them.

My biggest struggle has been balancing where I give my energy.

Don't look for shortcuts, because they'll only hurt you in the long run.
