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. 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 you will get to hear her coming out story, how yoga helped her accept herself, the support she got from teachers & chosen family, and more.

We dip a little into politics which we'll get more in depth with in our part two episode which I'll publish here tomorrow!
