My journey into full-time yoga and coaching is one of the most gratifying things I have ever done. But it has required me to step forward into a space of discomfort as I continue to learn and grow. As a result, I still have moments of staring into the dark unknown. I sometimes need to figure out what to expect or the next step in my journey.

It would be easy to shrink back and say no to new possibilities that force me to face my edge. There is always the risk of failure, but taking this risk is necessary for growth. I can either focus on my fears or focus on the journey. I acknowledge all I have learned, where I have grown, and some amazing people I meet on this path.

I’m dancing on the edge. I’m embracing that point of discomfort where every part of me wants to run away, to shrink back. But instead, I am learning to be okay with uncertainty. That is the point of growth, the place where I can step up and stretch out.

Join me in this dance. Find one place where you feel uncertain and afraid to shine your light, and stand in it despite the fear.

You may be surprised at how good it feels.
