Now more than ever, kids are being bombarded with social and emotional challenges that even us adults are struggling to navigate. In this episode, I interview School Teacher and Yogi, Emily Fleming.

Emily is utilizing the accessibility that public education provides in order to teach kids how to infuse yoga in their day. She has been teaching yoga and mindfulness in school for six years!

Emily believes that yoga adds another tool to a child's toolbox because it provides children with another way to take control of their emotions, lifelong, even when life gets messy. 

We discuss Emily's yoga practice which she began around age 16, and we dig into how she pivoted from pursuing a career as an international news correspondent to becoming a teacher and successfully launching her yoga business.

Emily also shares how she overcame naysayers who practically laughed at her dream of becoming a full-time yoga teacher, and so much more.

Enjoy the episode!
