Kauai has had my ❤️ since my first visit here to Noah's home in 2011. We moved here together after knowing each other only for 6 months- wild right? And honestly, it is where our love blossomed. (And its eventually where we conceived our son in 2017!)
But that first trip was something truly magical. It was my forst international trip ever at just 23 years old, fresh out of graduating university. I ran my first yoga retreats for the outrigger canoe club women I was paddling with. I paddled daily with our team in Hanalei and had an incredible coach who pushed me hard and saw my potential. I loved it. I volunteered at a community organic garden and helped write a grant to get seed saving equipment to help the island become more suatainable. I learnt how to surf with Noah pushing me into a million waves and surfed worldclass waves as an absolute beginner. We frolicked the Napali coast trail weekly on trail runs amd camping trips with friends. I got to know Noah so deeply during that first epic year.
Every single time we come back here we remember those days while building new memories together.
Stepping into this new year, the year of the fire dragon, I am ready for fierce powerful things to arrive. I am attracting abundance and health. I am feeling patient yet driven and I hope the same for each and every one of you.
May this year bring us all exactly what we are seeking. And as always, may we make time for ourselves each and every day.
See you on your mat and I look forward to following your year of adventures too.
In love and light always,
Sarah
