This woman is an incredible teacher and inspiration to me. Everything she shares comes straight from the heart and I am grateful to be able to share some of her thoughts with you.
Tracee and I talk about the importance of having a practice and exactly what it can bring to your life, the truth about meditation (it’s not just sitting upright), authenticity in a time of hustle, and so much more goodness.
