Thank you for bearing with me while I’ve taken a short break! I’ve missed doing the podcast, and I’m so glad that Ty Powers is the person to bring me back and round out this year. He’s been working in the mindfulness, yoga, and Buddhist sphere for decades, alongside his wife Sarah who was a guest on this show in the fall. These two episodes with Ty and Sarah, who I’ve known for almost 20 years, feel like the best way to wrap up 2023. Stay tuned for a special episode next week on my year and my plans for 2024. And let me know what you think of these episodes!

Oh my gosh. These two not-shrinking-violets. If you expand the picture, you’ll see how much money is going monthly into their mouths. 😬
Here’s to middle school! Tween! Teen! God help me!
What a delight meeting and speaking with Jillian Pransky Yoga two months ago 💞. For this week’s re-release, I’m still reflecting deeply on how she has inherited the yoga form of teaching from Pema Chӧdrӧn’s years of meditation retreats and metta (or positive meaning or kindness) practices.
If you haven’t tuned in, listen now. And please share the podcast! You will probably also love her book, Deep Listening.
My conversation with Jillian was one of the pods that makes me so grateful to wake up every day and do this work!

☯️ Friendships are always changing and realigning.
🫂 My whole life, I’ve only ever been able to go deep with people; superficial is impossible. I just can’t! When in-person contact was sucked away in Covid, and when we then moved across the country while everyone was barely hanging on, I had to do some deep work to let go of the illusions that friendships stay the same and that people don’t have limitations.
🩶 And yet, the friendships meant to stick stay strong while new ones emerge. So this post is about friendship, tried, true, and new! 🙌🏾
I think it's time in modern yoga to consider what Doug Keller and I explored in this re-released podcast. Doug is a fan favorite for a reason! In this episode, Doug and I explored Natha yoga’s 20 yamas (restraints) and niyamas (observances), versus the 10 that nearly every yoga teacher at least touches on in a teacher training.
If you missed this episode earlier, listen in now! And if you’ve already tuned in, it’s definitely worth a second listen!
