I Said Some Things Out Loud

A 33-minute conversation about belonging, Creating something Meaningful, and why yoga is bigger than you think.

I sat down with Sheena from the Sweat Community Podcast and answered questions I don't always get asked about planning a Colorado Yoga Festival.

She didn’t ask "what's the schedule?" or "how many sessions are there?"

She asked when yoga stopped being exercise and became a path. She asked what scared me most about creating this. She asked what I really want people to feel when they leave on September 13th.

I talked about my husband saying out loud what I hadn't let myself say yet. About the gap between yoga classes and teacher training, and why so many people fall right through it. About the fact that I was postpartum and perimenopausal at the same time I bought this domain three years ago.

I talked about what it means to belong somewhere. And about why so many of us feel lonely in rooms full of people.

If you've been curious about what the Denver Yoga Summit is, this is the most thorough answer I've given.
