The lesson that keeps resurfacing for me is learning to stay the course.

In the past, I haven’t always operated like a business owner. I’ve operated like a person trying to make everyone happy. When numbers fluctuated, I’d change something right away, hoping that would be the ticket for people to want to come. But I’ve realized that lasting growth doesn’t come from constant change, it comes from consistency and trust.

Lately, we’ve been talking a lot about abandonment in class, and I’ve started to see how that theme shows up for me too. Not in how others have shown up for me, but in how I’ve sometimes abandoned myself, especially when things feel uncertain. I’ve learned that when challenges arise, my instinct can be to “run,” to shift directions, to fix, to move away from discomfort.

But this season, I’m choosing something different. Right now, there’s a lot happening behind the scenes that we’re not quite ready to share. Instead of rushing to announce it or change direction, I’m practicing consistency. I’m staying the course, trusting that what’s meant to unfold will, in its own time.

What lesson keeps resurfacing for you and how are you meeting it differently this time?

I’ve been in a training recently that’s challenged me to grow in ways I didn’t expect. One of the biggest shifts has been in how I cue. The instructors encourage naming the pose first and then layering in the cues, which is almost the opposite of how I’ve always taught. I’ve typically offered the cues first and sometimes never even named the pose at all.

This new approach made me pause and really reflect on my own teaching style, not just what I can add, but what I can refine. I’ve realized that giving the pose name first can actually empower my students. So many of you have been practicing for years; once you hear the name, your body already knows what to do. I can’t wait to try this and see how it creates more flow and confidence in your practice.

Some of the most meaningful changes happen beyond what’s obvious, both on and off the mat.

This month we'll share stories from the community to highlight what growth can look like, and prompts to invite reflection on your own journey. Comments are open for sharing insights, breakthroughs, or moments that matter.

Gratitude feels richer when it’s tied to real progress.
And growth is always better celebrated together.

Sometimes the world is so vast, so beautiful, that it makes us feel small. And that’s okay. Feeling small in the face of nature, art, or a moment that takes your breath away isn’t a weakness. It’s a reminder of how alive we are, how connected we are, and how much there is to wonder at.

Take a moment today to pause, look around, and let yourself be humbled by the beauty of the world. It’s in these moments that we remember how big our hearts can be.
