Mindfulness is a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and sensations. We had the honor to sit down and speak with Sasha Whitney, who is a DMV native, indoor cycling instructor, mindful meditation leader, and podcaster. 

Sasha has been vocal about the changes that need to be made to make fitness and wellness inclusive and welcoming places for all regardless of color, body size, and ability. As a leader in her community, she's passionate about creating a bigger table and empowering women to find their voice to change the spaces they are in. 

Ultimately, Sasha's goal is for everyone to lead a life of intention, love, and feeling free to come as they are knowing there is space for them on and off the bike!
