If there is someone who loves D.C. it's for sure, Heather. Heather Leah is a wanderlust-filled traveler, raised in New England, who has planted roots in Washington, DC. She loves to watch her breath move in and out of her body and she loves how her muscles feels when she stretches them. She loves to play with words and paint and friends and trees. The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron is her Bible. The question, "so, what do you do?" gives her constant pause. She is a published poet and children's book author, community organizer, and teacher. Founder of the WithLoveDC community, she has organized hundreds of free and donation-based yoga classes in the city, three local yoga festivals, and five Women of the Wild gatherings. Her favorite activity is exploring nature with her dog, Snoop. Her aim every day is to practice gratitude that she is awake, alive, and able to keep expanding.
