I stepped into my first yoga class two decades ago and received a most wonderful gift that has enhanced my life in so many ways.

Episode 176 is live.
Let’s talk about something we don’t address enough in the yoga space:
• Aging
• Hormonal shifts
• Teaching through change
Your practice will change.
Your body will change.
Your energy will change.
But your ability to teach, lead, and impact others?
That deepens.
In the latest episode of the Beyond Yoga Teacher Training Podcast, I’m back sharing:
- how menopause shifted my perspective
- why performance-based teaching falls short
- practical ways to adapt your teaching
- how to lead with presence, not pressure
If you’re a teacher in a new season - this is for you.

I’m wondering…
Are you ready to release unnecessary tension and nourish your nervous system?
Join me for “Release & Flow: Myofascial Release & Yoga”, a 2-hour immersive workshop designed to help you replenish your energy and optimize movement.
Your registration includes a set of Recovery Rounds by RAD (a $25 value) to use during the session AND take home so you can continue the self-care at home.
We’ll use MFR techniques to explore how to incorporate better communication within your tissues. By improving this internal connection, you’ll increase efficiency in your movements and your yoga practice, leaving you feeling spacious, light, and renewed.
Sounds good, huh?

Wisdom lives in the pause.
It’s been almost six months since I released a podcast episode—and this return feels different. Not rushed. Not loud. Just honest.
In that space, life expanded.
Family grew.
Work evolved.
Community deepened.
And the why behind my teaching came back into focus.
Yoga hasn’t removed change or challenge—but it continues to offer me a way to meet it with presence, steadiness, and discernment.
That’s what this next season of the Beyond Yoga Teacher Training Podcast holds.
In the newest episode, I share reflections from the pause, what’s been unfolding personally and professionally, and three simple practices for navigating change when life shifts direction.
If you’re in a season of transition—or simply listening more closely—this one’s for you.
