, an at-home, interactive, live online yoga studio. "I said, 'I'm going to make an investment in myself,'" she says. "This is an investment in me. I've given all of my savings and pulled all of my 401 [out into] to this vision that I have, to inspire more mindfulness in the world."

The biggest challenge for Vo was searching for and training yoga teachers. Omflow is an online platform and she wanted to ensure the teachers were still able to enforce mindfulness through a screen. "Just because it's online and virtual, it doesn't mean that has to replace human connection. It could enhance it," Vo says.The number of Omflow users ebbs and flows.

Vo initially wanted to make Omflow as big as possible, similar to other at-home wellness systems. But she didn't want to impose a cost barrier on her users.," Vo explains. "I wanted to instead offer them a solution where they could still have high-quality yoga practices at their convenience, on their schedule, at their affordable budget."
