The Journey

This has been a journey. From living in my husbands shadow as a military wife, always with one foot out the door, to taking hold of the reigns in my own life.

3 years into marriage and i’m pregnant. My daughter is 2, so for the past 3 years i’ve been someone’s mom. I have moved through 6 homes in 4 states over 6 years.

During military life I became a 500 hour registered yoga teacher. I am more grateful for this today than I was in the thick of it, teaching full time all over town. How lucky I am to have had those experiences. Although, I haven’t been true to my heart. I feel the urge to speak. To you, to her, to us. I started a podcast, its called Vegan Yoga Mom. Where I pour my heart out over the things that set my soul on fire. This is my space to share the stream of thoughts rushing though my brain. Its mindfulness, sustainability, plant based living, civil rights, love, sex, motherhood, feminism, yoga, all the things. On my terms, by my rules, I share the voice of a regular girl on her quest to save the world. Talking to people who are smarter than I am, learning and growing and expanding my mind while inviting others to sit here next to me. Im a stay at home mom and my husband works out of town, how’s a girl suppose to spread her wings when she’s on mom time? I think I might have figured it out. Find your vulnerability, think big and be true to yourself. I have realized that I do care what people think of me, just not all people.

Those in the nosebleed seats do not get an expensive opinion about my life and who I decide to be in this world. This may seem very ‘small time’ to some. I started a podcast about the things I love, big deal. But I have a vision for my life and it starts right here, right now, as I broadcast my heart to the world with a toddler sitting on my lap.
