[07:26] Cait’s Mission & Mindfulness Yoga
Cait is one of Diana’s first one-on-one clients.  She is the first Registered Children’s Yoga Teacher in the New York public school district.  Her mission is to help people of all ages, sizes, and genders live their best lives through mindfulness and yoga.  She believes in the power of giving adults the mindfulness and mindset tools to share with their children.  [09:25] Dream Achievement Guilt
People often feel guilty for wanting more after achieving their goals and aspirations because they think they should be thankful. It is okay to want more.  Change is a sign of growth. Embrace growth and expansion. You can shift and evolve while following our desires — even in a different modality.  Tap into the feeling that you want, and you will be able to live to your fullest potential.  [12:07] Cait’s ‘Summit’ Retreat Reflections
Cait finds the experience transformative through breakthroughs, healing, and authentic, meaningful connections.  Vulnerability and openness can lead you on a deeper path to your highest fulfillment.  Cait: "Life, in general, is like a hike up a mountain. You sometimes have to take that first step, and then you realize that it's super challenging once you start going, and altitude keeps picking up."
Take ‘quantum leaps.’ Slow and steady does not win the race — be agile. You have to move and go to the thing you know is waiting for you.  [18:27] Cait’s Brand Photoshoot Experience 
Cait always wanted to work with Ani, and the retreat made it possible for her. She felt in the moment with herself during the shoot.  The shoot helped her reconnect with her body and appreciate existing in her skin.  It also made her see how beautiful the body is and how it works automatically without us even thinking about it.  [24:17] Shelagh and Her Clients 
Shelagh is a registered dietitian specializing in hormone health and PCOS.  She finds joy in helping her clients heal hor
