This is Merideth. She works at a bar in Venice Beach. Teaching and practicing yoga keeps her grounded and focused on what’s important in her life. Recently, while living in Japan, she taught English as a second language, farming through the WWOOF program, and also hiked to the top of Mount Fuji. Currently, she is pursuing a degree in environmental leadership.
