5 years ago I drove from one part of Costa Rica to another and my whole life changed because of it.  Now I'm back in Colorado with my brother, my dog, my fiance.  I always like looking back and reminding myself that I could never have imagined this moment, then.

"... i've been processing what i'd like to leave in the past and what i'd like to use from my past to perfect my present.  i definitely want to clean house; ridding myself of comparison, competitiveness, and jealousy.  i especially want to leave behind any negative feelings towards women.  i want to take my great love and admiration for my sisters and develop that into feelings of respect and support for all women working hard and doing their thing.  i've always been easily happy for the success of others and i want to keep that with me and expand it even more, allowing it to strengthen and bolster these feelings of female empowerment.  
i want this to show up in action by putting my gifts to use creating and facilitating spaces for women to grow and connect - through activity, through vulnerability, through humor, through adventure, through nature and through yoga.  these are all building blocks in who i am and have been foundational in building healthy change in my life.  i know that this combination works and i want to do my very best to share it with others.
i want to be kind.  i want to be a liker not a hater, a supporter not a detractor, a positive force to move things forward, knowing that we area ll connected and when one succeeds we all benefit! aho!"
