POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Something happened last week and I’m still not over it..

👉🏽 The theme of this week was to Work Hard, Recover Harder. And we f*cking did. We also PLAYED HARD, HEALED HARD, LAUGHED HARD AND LOVED HARDER.

Badass hiking, jumping off waterfall cliffs, Temezcal ceremony, deep conversations, Vinyasa + Yin yoga and looong juicy meditations.. it was edgy, memorable, fun, and a week for the books 📚

👉🏽 But here’s what gets me 🥺 The unofficial theme of this retreat was (re)kindling relationships.

Whether it was a father and his grown son,

A mother and her teenage daughter,

Besties living on opposite coasts,

College roommates,

A couple spending their first week alone since having a child,

A couple just six months into their relationship — or a couple celebrating their 20 year anniversary.

This Retreat not only brought these pairs of individuals closer, but it also allowed each guest to rekindle their own relationship with him- or herself.

Through sitting in extended periods of silence and stillness, to new movement patterns..

To being with nature (literally sleeping amongst the treetops), and surrounded by a new culture + new friends.

Each guest experienced a new reality through their experience in El Salvador. And this new reality on Retreat week inevitably leaves them changed upon returning home.

The transformations here hit different.

Grateful to be witness to this life-changing work.

Our retreat family expanded by 25 + I can’t wait to see where we all meet up next 🌍

We had a great night connecting, planning, and brainstorming ways to support our members and grow our community! 🌟 Topics included upcoming CE courses, student mentorship programs, public health outreach, legislative updates, and exciting events like WSP in September.

We wrapped up the evening by celebrating 🎉 Happy Birthday to Heidi Coggan, our past CDHA President 🥳, and enjoying the company of our honorary board pup Prince 🐾.

hard to believe my last retreat before maternity leave wrapped up one year ago today! 🥲

we took over the private island of @thethatchcaye + spent our days under the hot belize sun.. swimming, snorkeling, flowing + becoming one of the most closely connected retreats i’ve ever witnessed in five short nights.. and there were 28 of us!

if you’re seeking female friendships that feel like this, @kierstie_payge and i are opening up registration for our next women’s retreat in just a few weeks. it will undoubtedly fill in record time with the most incredible, soulmate women: real and raw, silly and supportive, loyal and loving, and a little bit wild 😏

join the waitlist in my bio if you’re a YES for our women’s retreat to GREECE, SEPT 26-OCT 3, 2026 🇬🇷

Find your WHY! My Why has long been to serve others. I find so much joy in teaching & leading and helping people get out of their own way. Today I got to lead these amazing women during our Friday MB360 class and WOAH! Their energy and light really filled the studio! I am beyond grateful that I get to do this for work. I’ve had a lot of moments lately where I’ve felt defeated, but classes like today remind me that beyond the stress filled moments there is so much connection and love to be had! Thankful for the humans I get to connect with daily. Thanks for showing up and being you. The world needs it ❤️❤️❤️

what you say YES to, matters.

just as @camille_love19 said a resounding YES when @caryryan78 proposed, my YES was easy when they asked if i would officiate their wedding.

this experience was truly yoga in its purest form, “off the mat” style: bringing souls together, celebrating LOVE + LIFE within a sacred community.

we held hands. we spoke about how camille manifested cary on our @blisscampretreats retreat in joshua tree. we laughed, cried, danced.. it was bliss all around.✨

as the second ceremony i’ve hosted (and hopefully far from the last), it was another beautiful opportunity to expand my edges and comfort zones.

so whether it’s coaching or mentorship, lunch with a new friend, traveling with intention, dating someone new, exploring new types movement or self-care.. what feels empowering?

what feels like tiptoeing into uncharted territory, but you just know there can’t help but be growth + goodness on the other side?

life requires this of us. to lean into that which feels expansive, heart-led, and a full-body f*ck YES.

The twins attended their first @oralcancerfoundation walk that was partnered with @cdha_strong! 🏃🏻‍♀️
•
According to the Oral Cancer Foundation, in just one year, almost 54,000 Americans will be diagnosed with oropharyngeal or oral cancer, killing roughly one American each hour in a day. It is important to be screened for oral cancer and every one of your dental visits by your dental hygienist and dentist! 🦷
•
At our oral cancer walk, we had dentists from @westcoastuniversity providing oral cancer screenings to our attendees to raise awareness about oral cancer. Remember, you don’t have to smoke to be at risk for oral cancer!
