I’ve been looking forward to this conversation with you because it’s one of my favorite parts of teaching: helping yoga teachers finally feel confident in the way they build their sequences. For years, I used to “wing it” in class: grabbing poses from YouTube, doing whatever felt good, or forcing a peak pose because that’s […]

I’ve been looking forward to sharing this conversation with you because it’s one of my favorite topics inside the Teach Smarter module of my 300-hour YTT. If you’ve ever felt stuck repeating the same physical cues, or you’ve wondered how some teachers create classes that feel profound while others feel purely physical, this episode is […]

This one feels extra special. I’ve been holding this close to my heart for years! I’ve said “no” to running another 300-hour yoga teacher training for so long, but your curiosity, sincerity, and love for yoga finally changed my mind. So, I’m pulling back the curtain and giving you the full behind-the-scenes look at how […]

Our feet are truly the foundation for how we move through both yoga and life, yet they’re often the most neglected part of the body. I’ve wanted to have this conversation for a long time, and who better to join me than physical therapist and movement educator Michelle Edmison? Michelle has an incredible gift for […]

Autoimmune conditions are complex, deeply personal, and often misunderstood. In this episode of Let’s Talk Yoga, I sit down with Renu Jain, yoga therapist and researcher at Kaivalyadhama, to explore how yoga can meaningfully support those living with autoimmune disease — not as a cure, but as a path toward regulation, balance, and hope. Renu […]

Lately, I’ve been thinking about how yoga can truly live beyond the mat—how we can embody it in our everyday choices, even when life gets busy and we can’t make it to class. This episode was inspired by a wrinkled, water-stained piece of paper that’s been sitting on my desk for months—a simple list I’d […]

This was not an easy episode to record. It’s heavy, uncomfortable, and deeply necessary. For too long, yoga spaces have been romanticized as places of healing and awakening—but many have also been sites of abuse, manipulation, and harm. In this conversation, I open up about sexual harassment, misconduct, and abuse of power in yoga—both historically […]

I’ve always loved sharing the mythical stories behind yoga poses, and this one might just be my favorite yet. The story of Ashtavakra—the sage who was born bent in eight places after being cursed by his own father—is a powerful reminder that truth and wisdom can transform even the most difficult circumstances. This episode explores […]

I can’t believe we’re at episode 200! Instead of throwing confetti, I decided to mark this milestone by diving into one of the most important (and surprisingly overlooked) topics in yoga teaching: pain and inflammation. To help me break it all down, I’m joined by Andrew McGonigle—better known as Dr. Yogi. Andrew has such a […]

Mindfulness and meditation are everywhere these days: apps, yoga studios, even corporate boardrooms. But what’s the real difference, and how do they actually work together? In this episode, I unpack the roots of both practices, share why we often confuse them, and explain how mindfulness and meditation nourish each other like soil and roots. Mindfulness […]
