S3E7 Disconnect to Reconnect with Carley DeMarco

I’ve known this week’s guest, Carley, since I was in middle school. We actually went to the same middle school and high school in Delaware, and even though we have ended up in completely different states after graduating, we've found similar missions in life. We both fell in love with the practice of yoga and became yoga teachers. We are both huge wellness advocates and creatives who are using different platforms to build community, highlight people we are inspired by, and share tips to be well. I left our conversation feeling inspired by her and with a sense of rejuvenation to continue to manifest what I want my life to look like. I hope you feel the same way after listening because Carley is a rockstar. 

Carley is a writer, yoga teacher, former studio owner, and the founder of The Retreat: a monthly print wellness & spirituality newspaper helping you disconnect to reconnect. She holds in-person women's retreats all over the globe. You can connect with her on her website and Instagram listed below!
