At ๐‹๐ž๐š๐ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐‹๐จ๐ฏ๐ž, CONNECTION is everything ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป and sometimes itโ€™s as simple as a hug. ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ’›

Hugs release oxytocin, reduce stress, boost happiness, and remind us that weโ€™re never alone.

These moments from our last retreat at capture the magic of hearts coming together through the power of touch. ๐Ÿฅฐ

Hugs remind us weโ€™re part of something bigger than ourselves. Theyโ€™re a way of saying without words: ๐˜ ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ฆ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ, ๐˜ ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ต ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ, ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ. ๐Ÿ’•

So today, we invite you: go hug someone you love! Let them feel your presence, your care, your love. Feel how it shifts the energy between you. Feel how it strengthens the invisible threads of community. ๐Ÿซ‚

There is nothing more powerful than community and I ( ) have learned that the hard way living in another country half the time the last few years.

It was such an extraordinary dream and honor to facilitate this retreat with my homies and share our gifts with the most wonderful, deserving people. ๐Ÿ’–

โ€œOne of the first things I did at ACES was to start offering yoga classes at the Hallam Lake preserve as a volunteer about 15 years ago. I wanted to get more people to that beautiful sanctuary to learn what ACES does. We would gather out on the platforms by the lake and move and breathe. Itโ€™s been one of my favorite offeringsโ€ฆโ€

Our Story

Lead With Love exists to shift culture from fear to love.

We are witnessing and feeling the effects of separation and fear in our culture: Violence, racism, sexism, rampant depression, anxiety, stress, su***de, and drug and alcohol abuse. We are seeing bullying and bigotry and blame as a way of being. All of this is breaking our hearts.

WE BELIEVE IN BEING THE CHANGEโ€ฆ

At Lead With Love, we have spent the last three years focusing on improving wellbeing for our community. Weโ€™ve piloted and implemented over 20 programs under the name โ€œProject Wellbeingโ€ affecting hundreds of people with our partners at Pitkin County, City of Aspen, Aspen Valley Hospital and Aspen Community School. We are proud of our work and we will soon expand this service work locally and globally.
