Storytime with Kate
We're making reels.
We're posting on the internet.
We're writing scripts.
We're talking hooks and hot takes!
"WHY?!" - you ask.
BECAUSE THE 2025 SELF STUDY PROGRAM IS UPON US!
This will be the first year that the program...

I have this new client who I'm obsessed with. I adore our calls together.
The other day she was like, "ugh. I just feel like you're so so good at the things I want to be good at. You seem so assertive and you set the kind of boundaries that I want to set and you...

ugh yall.
the new year is well underway and I'm not resonating with my word of the year and it already feels... eww.
The subject and tagline of this email are much more dramatic than I actually feel, but the drama of it all helps me just get out the gunk.
My word of this...
Storytime with Ruby
In January 2020 I had everything I thought I wanted: a dream job owning a successful yoga studio, getting to do what I loved every day, a team of best friends. I was in a stable relationship, had built a strong community, and I liked myself. There were things I didn’t...

Hi there,
As Kate mentioned last week, the Duality of Harm & Healing in Fitness, Yoga and Wellness is finally here! It's a limited series podcast that we're releasing weekly, each aligning with a theme of the My Self Study Practice.
It's been many years in the...

You've probably noticed that it's been a few weeks!
**GASP What have we been up to?!
Last weekend we luxuriated at Heartfelt in West Palm Beach, Florida in an exclusive little two-house compound that wrapped around a pool and a lilly-pad covered lake....

Hey!
When's the last time you felt like yourself?
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about what it means to fully trust and lean into who I am. Like quirks, perfectionism, chaos, and all!
How does that change my experience of this one and only life I'm sure I get to live?

Howdy!
Does it feel like fall where you are?
I'm writing to you from Kate's living room. The sun glistens into the trees and streams through the divided-light windows; the air outside is warm but brisk in the way that only early autumn can offer us.
By now you likely know that...

I love everything about the Self Study Program (except the admin stuff on the backend of course but I'm grateful that Ruby and I get to do that together, like everything else.)
Anyway, one of my favorite parts of the Self Study Program are the one-on-one coaching calls that...

Happy Autumn!
I hope this email finds you in a moment of pause; or perhaps it offers that pause for you.
I am currently in Georgia, and it doesn't quite feel like fall today. It's 88 degrees and sunny.
But I can feel the shift anyway. The days getting shorter. The...

Hey, you're so easy to love. Do you know that?
Ruby said that to me in a text the other day. I'm pretty sure she's said it to me before but this time, I felt that. I felt easy to love. I like who I'm being these days. I like how I'm being towards myself. I like the impact that...

Has this ever happened to you?
You reach out to a friend to hang out.
One week later you meet up at a cute, local coffee shop mid-morning on a Friday.
You both get a chai latte and a little treat.
You sit outside because it's perfect 70 degree weather and overcast.
Your friend...
