My Story

In my early 20's, I traveled to Australia for a year of study abroad. Mid-way through the year, I caught a virus &, being so far from home & my family, I had the profound realization that each of my choices create my reality. I then began the deliberate & conscious design of my life around what I loved & how I felt best. I chose with intention my relationships & a healthy lifestyle, I read on mind-body healing & spiritual texts. I sweat daily & began meditating. I reclaimed my health + happiness. So much so that I started experiencing moments of awakening.

When I came back home, I suffered from severe reverse homesickness. I'd lost my ideal lifestyle & had grown out of my old ways. So I worked on re-creating it again. Having experienced bliss for a few weeks & months, I wanted this state to return to my life.

I worked as a conservation biologist for organizations like The Nature Conservancy and Ducks Unlimited. I became a stay-at-home mom for the time of my pregnancy and the early childhood of my daughter. I immersed myself in yoga. I worked as a biologist for a professional firm & supported my family while my partner returned to school to become a naturopathic doctor. I signed up for B-School & I left my position after a couple of years to start this business.

Now, my days are a mix of yoga, parenting, & helping other trail-blazers, light workers & change-makers to establish their online presence. You can meet some of them here :) My journey has taught me about yoga, holistic health, creativity, gratitude & being present. I'm the designer of a life filled with magic + delight!

Our Values

 

I live my life & share my gifts according to 3 core values

 
 

Consciousness

Yoga is my way of connecting with my spark of divinity. It’s a constant practice to notice, to seek, Love in my life. I completed 500h of yoga teacher training in hatha + vinyasa yoga for my own curiosity + passion. I’m on a path of self-realization & I want to offer my time + talents to those who also contribute to a more enlightened world.

Sustainability

I became an entrepreneur so that I could take care of my health & my relationships, & to have full control over my income. Also, I vote with my dollars every time I purchase or invest in something. Therefore, I try to make the best decisions for the people, the environment & our economy. Whenever possible, I choose fair-trade, organic &/or local products & services as much as possible. And because a vibrant business & life thrives in a healthy society & world, I give back a portion of my profits to the protection & conservation of the environment. 

Beauty

Beautiful design makes me feel in awe at the magnificence & gracefulness of Life. Whether I’m reading prose or witnessing the immensity + perfection of Nature, beauty brings me to my knees. To me, creating beauty is an expression of Love & is the result of a pure intention. If you create beautiful things, thank you for infusing this extraordinary quality into the world!

What We Stand For

Inclusivity

We are an accessible and inclusive place, where all people are welcome. We value diversity in all its forms, whether related to gender expression or identity, sexual orientation, origin or membership in a cultural group, physical appearance, language, disability, age or any other identity factor.

Allyship

We strive to use our privilege + power to support & take action in solidarity + partnership with members of marginalized groups. This is very much an ongoing effort where we can always improve our advocacy + impact.
