Welcome to this special mini season where I celebrate voices of the LGBTQIA+ community in honor of pride month!!

My guest this week is Olivia Beaton & this is the part two to our conversation!

Olivia is a gay yoga teacher, writer, and photographer living in New York. In all of her work, storytelling is at the forefront, always striving to create connection through shared experiences.

In this episode we dive into yoga culture in the west, politics, and yoga philosophy. This episode is super edgy for me, I usually never speak to my political opinions so I'm grateful Olivia brought her thoughts here.

If anything triggers you here, amazing. We invite you to sit with that, dive deep into the depths of yourself and choose to follow what you feel is right within your heart rather than following the path laid out for you!
