About Aligned Heart

Hi I'm Sam! I'm a mother of two and a yoga instructor.
Before becoming a yoga teacher, I had been practicing yoga for about 13 years and becoming a teacher was always in my plan. I unexpectedly left the corporate world right before I had my daughter almost 5 years ago. I became a new and then started to struggle with my identify. I no longer felt important without my career, title, and money to feed my ego. Even though I had always wanted to be a mom, I was not fulfilled. I needed more. 
And over the last few years, I have learned to realign with my True Self. To stop trying to live up to unrealistic expectations and to let go of false identities. I did so by first apprehensively, and then radically and prioritizing self care - which for me happens to include yoga, journaling, wine, and making music. I began to live unapologetically as me, and only me. 
Aligned Heart Yoga & Life is my offering to the growing community of women who are ready for MORE. I work with women to prioritize self care as a path to cultivating self love, ultimately preparing to enact change in their lives.  As an Alignment Coach, I incorporate both yoga, in practice and philosophy, plus self-discovery work, to help women re-align with their TRUE SELF and live a more fulfilled life. A life that is aligned with your own wants and desires and less dependent on inauthentic prototypes and limiting belief systems.  
This is a space where we encourage vulnerability in order to cultivate bravery. This is where we stop hiding and start shining. This is where return to ourselves.
