the Self Study Program is a practice of becoming the person you've always needed.

That could actually be the end of the post!

               I'll elaborate:

On an IG live the other day I shared this little nugget that really struck a chord for Ruby: The opposite of anxious...

Kate and I have been talking a lot about the lie of *READY*. 

Personally, I've never felt ready for any leap in my life... I've just felt a tug and leaned in.

But in all those instances of not feeling ready for the leap, I have known I was ready for something. That readiness i...

When was the last time you did something for the first time?

I'll go first. 

This weekend I skied for the very first time.

What Ruby and I get so often when people are deciding whether or not to join the Self Study Program is, "what is it?!"

y'all, I've sat down 5 times this week to write this newsletter.

And here I am, the final hour of the final day of this week, trying again... nothing like coming up on a deadline to get something done.

I've struggled to write a newsletter this week because the facts a...

Hi there,

Is it just me, or has self help become unbearably boring?

Everywhere I turn it's "7 steps to turning your life around for good" and "75 hard your way to greatness" and literally every imaginable self-help equivalent of the 90's diet culture champion: "nothing tastes as...

hey there, 

Yesterday evening, as I drove home from teaching a yoga class, the mountains already dark, I caught myself thinking of my ex. The scene that warmed itself into my mind was of us sitting across from each other at dinner, laughing, ordering something culinarily edgy, ...

Idk about you, but I have no idea what day it is. Ain't that the way it always goes on the last week of the year? I take it as a sign that I'm right on track. 😉
