Hip Tranquil Chick Chat:
“I just wanted to take a quick moment to thank you for this incredible blog and for everything you share. I discovered your little spot several months ago by accident. I remember googling something completely unrelated to yoga and somehow your site came up. The short blurb was enough to prompt me to click on the link, and I've been hooked ever since. As I was milling through your previous posts and podcasts (I never knew there was such a thing before your site), I became so engrossed by your journey and your unique take on life. I also saw many things I could relate to - a love of yoga, a desire to make an impact on people and help them better their lives, a love of animals, and even a stint in the legal world.

I think what really connected me to your site was my own personal situation. As a young attorney, I encountered a first job that really tore me apart. The inevitable happened, and I found myself jobless and full of self-doubt. As I discern my next step (do I even want to stay in law?), I know without a doubt that taking care of myself mentally, spiritually, and physically should never be sacrificed for a job - something I learned the hard way. I found your site at an ideal time when I was (am) looking for a little direction, and, though I am not one to normally make myself known (yes, I really am an attorney), I just want to say thanks for all that you do. Good luck with your new book, and I can't wait to give it a read.”
