TLDR: Yoga Teacher certification, travel, and new business opportunities <\/p>\n

Hello lovelies! It’s been a few months since you’ve last heard from me.<\/p>\n

I am coming at you live from Sri Lanka where I am taking a short break during a few wild months of growth and new opportunities.<\/p>\n

When I last posted, I told you all I was to taking these past few months off from blogging\/creating new projects to really zero in on a few endeavors that needed my complete attention.<\/p>\n

In October I finally took my freelance marketing to the next level. I launched an agency, Bananaquit Media L.L.C.<\/a> where I produce stunning digital content for brands committed to holistic wellness and sustainable living. <\/p>\n

After months of paperwork and lots of other admin things it felt so great to see things come to life! Taking this step into entrepreneurship was scary but has been so rewarding. <\/p>\n

In November, I traveled to Varkala, India to complete my 200 hour ashtanga – hatha yoga teacher training. I have been teaching self taught yoga for a few years now but this took my practice to another level. It was one of the most physically, spiritually, and mentally intense things I have done to date. <\/p>\n

I loved every second of it. Ya girl is officially certified to teach yoga to the people. Whoop! <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

I am in Sri Lanka, teaching yoga and basking in this beautiful opportunity. I am so grateful for everything that I\u2019ve experienced thus far. <\/p>\n

From here on out, you can expect to hear weekly updates from me as I continue to travel and spread my light. <\/p>\n
