Quotes from Michele Bolanos:
"I set an intention for myself. I am going to let go of fear. Do the things that make you uncomfortable, you never know if you are going to get the barrel of your life unless you go!"

"If you stay in your comfort zone, you don't grow, you get bored. I've caught myself getting stuck and you're not sure why you don't feel good, why you don't wake up motivated, and you're like, oh, it's because I don't have a challenge."

"Yoga taught me how to love myself, especially after doing the teacher training. I was like, I love myself enough to do what I need to do."
