“It’s less about having a grip on things needing to be successful and more a fluid state of, ‘I can have a goal. I can see the vision. I can put it out into the world and maybe it lands somewhere or maybe it falls away and I start a new goal.’”
Chloe Kernaghan | Co-founder, Sky Ting Yoga
“If we don’t allow ourselves to step into that fear and get to the other side of it, we deny a different kind of life that we could have.”
Christina Rice | Founder, OmNoire
“I have learned to trust my gut more and more.”
Jane Larkworthy | Beauty Editor at Large, The Cut
“I’ve had a lot of those, ‘This feels right right now but this doesn’t feel like ‘the one.’’ Those experiences have definitely led me to where I am right now.”
Cyndi Ramirez-Fulton | Founder, Chillhouse
“We thought that by supporting our people, our teachers, and our front desk people, that would trickle down into the community.”

“Being a lifestyle blogger, being a content creator, you’re putting so much energy into other people’s work–—helping them get their name out there and promoting their work. And, one day, hopefully, they do the same for you.”
Cyndi Ramirez-Fulton | Founder, Chillhouse
“Community means fulfillment. Community means relying on people to give you advice but you’re right there to give the advice back.”
Jane Larkworthy | Beauty Editor at Large, The Cut
“Taking the mindset of having forward motion with your goals is useful so you don’t get caught up.”
Chloe Kernaghan | Co-founder, Sky Ting Yoga
“You don’t learn by dreaming. You learn by doing.”
Christina Rice | Founder, OmNoire
“No matter what, the busier you are, the more people you meet, you’re bound to disappoint someone. Getting comfortable in that discomfort has been key in setting boundaries for myself.”
Cyndi Ramirez-Fulton | Founder, Chillhouse
“As far as taking on too many things, what’s the worst that could happen?”
