Founder and Executive Director, The Mindful Path
I hired Cara as a "flow coach" in follow-up to the online course work I did with the Flow Genome Project. She helps not only with lifestyle changes but how to apply what I learned about the neuroscience of flow to my work environment. So grateful for her experience, approach and knowledge.
