Eventually, I came back.
To my hometown.

Somewhere in the chaos, I found yoga.
Or maybe it found me.
The mat became a place I could return to—

I was recently listening to Dan Sullivan’s 10X is better than 2 X, and I started to think how all that he was teaching us about uplevelling our business lives was exactly like motherhood. As mother’s our lives are instantly 10X’d (probably more), the moment you birth your...
