My triggers come in waves. Odd moments when they pop up and I can hear his voice in the back of my head; the same voice that latched on to my prior insecurities and the one that dove deep into my weaknesses. This weekend all I could hear on repeat was: “you’re not enough.” You […]

Well Summit Review
Well Summit shifted my energy, my body and my heart in ways I could have never predicted or imagined. My GOD am I grateful I went to Brooklyn. Let’s start with a bit of a back story. My girlfriend Amanda of Prim and Propah is a powerhouse beauty and blogger in Boston. We met a […]
Abuse is Tricky
When this photo was taken, I was 6 weeks pregnant with my little love. In that moment, I couldn’t have been happier. I was in love with him already, fresh off our trip from India and in a place I thought I would be my whole life. Exactly one year later, I left my ex-husband […]
Tools I Used to Get Me Peacefully Through My Divorce
In the beginning, everyone kept saying, I’m not sure how you do it all as a single mom, you are so strong. I would politely say thank you as I internally rolled my eyes and prayed that someday I would see the strength they were taking about. When you’re a single mom (especially a newbie), […]
Mama Bear Confidence + How It’s Different From Before
When I found out I was pregnant I threw my diet out the window. I didn’t know much about being pregnant and knew nothing from firsthand experience, but I knew that if I felt restricted it wouldn’t be an easy road ahead. I spent much of those first few months in a junk food haze […]

Magical Monday: Bliss in the rough moments
As I was composing this blog post in my mind, Zyan was feeding and Apollo was whining at the door as it was 9:35am and I still hadn’t managed to take him out. I relented to putting my nursing scarf on and stepping outside barefoot to let Apollo out, walking in my front yard with […]
My Favorite Student
I’m not supposed to have a favorite student, but I do. Students come to you in all stages of life. They come to you with love in their hearts or very broken ones. Injuries in every joint and new body parts. They come with baggage of their bad experiences; the one time they tried […]
Staying True to the New You!
In the past few years I have changed… a lot. Somehow I have gone from not quite fitting in to finding a place to thrive. I was always on the edge, but never really found MY place until a few years ago through yoga. The funny thing is, once I found yoga I knew instantly…. […]
Free Love Friday: Boston Bloggers!
This week is full of gratitude, appreciation and the reminder that slowing down is sometimes NOT a bad thing. I have a tendency to want to be overly prepared, to push myself so hard that I cannot see straight and to always want things yesterday. The end of last week was very frustrating as my […]
