This week's WE RISE episode is featuring Lora Colautti,\\xa0 a yoga teacher & studio owner, wellbeing mentor, coach and influencer.\\xa0 She opened Yoga with Lora 6 years ago and has recently evolved her wellbeing business by branding under her name and offering new wellbeing products and services online, including the Wellbeing Love Notes ebook and Workbook.

During life\\u2019s defining moments, from her younger sister\\u2019s passing to her own rectal cancer diagnoses and treatment, Lora has been able to maintain a connection to what feels right for her, including how she runs her business. She believes everyone has life experiences that stand out as defining moments. It\\u2019s these moments that make up who we are. The moments themselves don\\u2019t define us. We define ourselves by how we choose to move through them and who we decide to be because of them. Lora shares her years of wellbeing expertise with others so that they too can have the tools, knowledge and experience to feel emotionally empowered, have a positive perspective on life, and honour their inner voice.

Lora has been running her business solo until recently and is very aware of self-care as a woman and an entrepreneur, not just because it's the field she is in but because without it there's no way she would still be doing what she's doing. Having a supportive community of friends, family and even clients/customers/audience/etc is very important even if an entrepreneur is working solo. Lora is a big advocate of reaching out to or leaning on your support circle when you need it.

The new normal of pivoting due to COVID has also become a part of her entrepreneurial experience. For years she had been envisioning taking what she does to a more global scale. Both her Adventures with Marty (rectal cancer) and then the pandemic inspired her to take action. While the yoga studio was closed until phase 3, she spent her time creating her online presence and working on her first offering.\\xa0
