What I learned during a summer of love…

I have had a summer of love. I remember summers of love as a teenager, meeting someone new at the beginning of the summer, diving in deep to all those yummy feelings that come with the discovery of knowing someone and allowing them to know you.

After weeks of texting and talking for hours on the phone, our first date was 30 hours in San Francisco.

The practice of self-care has been a buzz topic for many years at this point - yet many find themselves at a loss with the concept.

I recently had to get honest with myself around this topic. You’ll hear more about that in the video below. I had a list of things I could do, sometimes even telling m...

Forging a deep relationship and ongoing conversation with our bodies is one of the most powerful activities you can spend time doing.
