Episode 22 is extremely meaningful for me, as I'm talking with a teacher and mentor who profoundly influenced my path as a movement teacher. 

I met Chrissy Carter almost exactly 10 years ago. And from the very first class I took with her, I knew I had found someone I wanted to know and learn from for the rest of my life. 

Chrissy has an incredible way about her-a way that helps you feel more comfortable in your own skin and more connected to who you really are. 

Without question, meeting Chrissy changed the trajectory of my career in movement in the best possible way. She has been a mentor to me in so many ways-it is truly an honor to talk with her on the podcast today. 

Our conversation is centered on movement, but expands out into so many amazing areas and how our relationship with ourselves and our bodies influences basically every aspect of our lives. 

Some of the things we talk about....

• As a teacher, how to connect with people in a way that guides them to connect with themselves
• Why yoga and all movement practices are about giving yourself permission to explore and connect with what actually works not with what you "should" do
• Why finding a teacher or coach that knows how to balance structure and freedom can change everything for you
• Why choosing movement that fits with your life has a positive ripple effect into everything else you do 
• The most helpful question you can ask yourself to know if you're on the right path 
• Why breaking away from the "should" mindset is the key to finding joy in movement
• How movement can help you feel welcome in your own body
• Why finding self acceptance is a lifelong practice
• The shifting relationship between structure and space and how to know what you need and when you need it
• Getting comfortable with the idea that what you like and what works for you can and will change over time 

There is SO much good stuff in here, soak up as much as you can and then listen again!
