Sober Yoga Girl

I loved having my Yoga Teacher Training Graduate, Lauren Brassfield, on the show! Lauren is one year sober. Lauren and I connected while she was on a s Sober Curious Women's Retreat in Bali. Lauren fell in love with Bali, and came back to participate in the 200-Hour YTT in Bali this past July. Lauren is passionate about helping women heal from trauma and serving the neuro-recovery community.

It was SO COOL to have Susanna Barkataki on the podcast! I have followed Susanna for years and really admire her work. Susanna focuses on decolonizing yoga, and inclusivity in yoga. She authored the book "Embrace Yoga's Roots" which I recommend to all of my 200-Hour YTT students. In this episode, we discuss cultural appropriation versus cultural appreciation and the work that students of yoga and teachers of yoga can do to uplift, inspire, and educate each other on this important subject. 
​
