Hi, I'm Carly.

I am a mom, school teacher, yoga educator & creative soul. I live in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island, with my husband and our one-year-old son, Bowen.

My self-love journey began nearly a decade ago with my first YTT in 2015, but I didn’t fully grasp what self-love really meant until I became a mom.

My son was born in 2021 and the transition to motherhood rocked my identity to its core. I had the family and the life I had always dreamed of, but for some reason I was still struggling.

I was stuck.

Stuck in my self-limiting belief systems, an endless loop of negative self-talk, crushing anxiety and the fear that I would never find myself again…

After a day spent alone at the beach on my 30th birthday, I realized that my problem wasn’t in finding myself, it was that I had stopped LOVING myself.

I decided to change that.

I choose to
love myself,
one compassionate choice at a time.

Since then I've learned that self-love isn't easy.

You don't just say "I'm going to love myself" and then you do.

It’s a constant journey of choosing yourself over and over again.

One compassionate choice at a time.

Every time I decide that I actually kind of like my wrinkles.

Every time I forgive myself for being human and making mistakes.

Every time I verbalize + prioritize my needs.

Every time I hold my heart with the same tender compassion that I would show a child.

It gets a little bit easier. I feel a little bit lighter. A bit more confident. More free.

Every time that I choose love over everything else, that is when I can begin to experience the embodiment of my true self, my essence, my soul.

Which, funnily enough, is LOVE.
