TRIGGER WARNING: Before we get started, I want to give you a heads-up: today's conversation will touch on sensitive topics like eating disorders, miscarriage and mental health. Please take care of yourself, and remember, it's okay to pause and come back when you're ready.

Today we’re diving deep into magical thinking, the power of social connections, and the evolving journey of yoga with my amazing friend Sarah Ezrin. 

Sarah, an author, yoga teacher, and mother, brings clarity to the intertwined paths of mental health, social media, and yoga practice, sharing her experiences and insights. 

As we explore how our internal landscapes shape our external worlds, this conversation is a blend of inspiration, learning, and reflection. 

You’ve got this. 

Here are the highlights: 

(2:22) Social media and community building on TikTok

(9:48) Childhood, whales and a traumatic encounter

(16:40) Parenthood, spirituality, and reconnecting with childlike wonder

(19:54) Grief, nature, and connection

(23:48) Body image, wellness, and self-care

(41:03) Yoga practice, stillness, and connection

(45:06) Inner wisdom, self-awareness, and connection
