This week’s episode is a little different — a live conversation, recorded at my favourite yoga studio in Byron Bay, Sol Method, with a room full of incredible, inquisitive women as our audience.

I sat down with Tara Folton, co-owner of Sol Method, yoga teacher, and all-round powerhouse, to explore how movement, motherhood, and identity intersect in ways that are both deeply personal and universally relatable.

From growing up on a farm in Pennsylvania with bi-racial parents, to discovering yoga, to moving through one of the most intense and identity-shifting experiences of her life: giving birth and becoming a mother.

We dive into:

- Her childhood — and how it shaped her approach to life and movement

- Finding yoga — and choosing it as both a practice and a profession

- Her birth experience — the story of bringing her son into the world

- Parenting — in all of its messy and humbling glory

This one is not to be missed (if for no other reason than that Tara is hands down the hottest 46-year-old I have ever known — whatever she’s doing, it’s working)!

On a serious note: this episode is for the prospective mummas, the already-mummas, and the dedicated movers reparenting themselves through the practice of yoga.
