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.
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."
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.
Focus on sharing your story and affecting the people that are hungry for your light.
My biggest struggle has been balancing where I give my energy.
Trust that your message is a unique one that people need to hear.
Not everyone will love you, and that's completely OK.
There's room enough for everyone to thrive.
Your passions will grow as you continue to grow, so remember, it's never too late to reinvent yourself or pursue the latest things that make you light up.
No cheating, clean up your self-induced fear act, and replace it with what you love.
Know that your style will always change and that nothing is ever set in stone.
Better to constantly check in than ride proud on your high horse.

The self doubt can be a fantastic opportunity to self-reflect and see where you can grow and be stronger.
A new yogi doesn't handstand on their first try, and a new teacher doesn't start out as a headliner. Be patient, and trust it's all going to add up and unfold in due time.
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.
Everyone needs to start somewhere.
Don't look for shortcuts, because they'll only hurt you in the long run.
Take your time. There's no rush to be good or renowned.

There's no need to be fearful when another person succeeds. In fact, joining forces and supporting fellow teachers (or co-workers) you believe in is one of the most empowering moves you can make.
