In March of 2020, none of us could predict how the pandemic would unfold and change all of our lives. That second week of March, all I knew was that people were no longer keen on coming to yoga classes in person and it was time to pivot to an online format. “Two weeks” was the word on the street as Governor Newsom made the stay-at-home order on March 19. My gut told me it was going to be longer than that…

We often refer to the “arrival” of a baby as if this little one doesn’t yet exist or they are going to magically appear from some other place at birth. However, just because a baby is still inside the womb doesn’t mean they are not “here.” Nobody understands this better than the person sharing their body for nine months, give or take.

Being a mom comes with many challenges, of course, and many are difficult to understand until you actually find yourself in that situation: the toll a chronic lack of sleep takes on your body, how hard breastfeeding can be, how invested you could possibly become in another person’s well being, choosing where to live based on schools...The list goes on. One thing that is topping my own list lately (okay, for the last 17 years, really) is space! When I hear “Space: the Final Frontier,” I think of empty-nesting, not Star Trek!
