    • Episode 151: From Surviving to Storytelling: Brittney’s Memoir Journey

      🎙 New Podcast Episode! Healthy Living with Yoga Anita

      This week’s guest is Brittney Stumpf — author, mother, truth-teller, and unapologetic breaker of generational cycles.

      Born and raised in Massachusetts, Brittney spent her childhood navigating addiction, instability, and trauma. She became the caregiver for her special-needs brother while her parents struggled with substance use — a responsibility no child should have, but one that shaped her resilience, humor, and voice.

      Her debut memoir, The Things I Never Said, turns pain into honesty and healing. With raw storytelling and a dark sense of humor, Brittney speaks to everyone who has ever survived something they never thought they’d talk about.

      Today, she works with elementary children with emotional needs at Keystone Collaborative in Leominster, helping young people feel seen, supported, and safe — something she once needed herself.

      ✨ This is an episode about breaking cycles, healing out loud, and finding strength in the stories we were once afraid to share.

      Tune in, listen deeply, and be inspired.

      Brittney's book is available on Amazon, Barnes&Noble.com, and at select local libraries.

      🎙️ New Episode of Healthy Living with Yoga Anita!
      This week’s guest is Kate Coleman, and her story is nothing short of electrifying.

      Just a short time ago, Kate found herself freshly fired from her position as Head of Marketing & Sales — and instead of falling apart, she launched into a bold new chapter of self-employment that completely transformed her life.

      Since then, Kate has:
       ✨ Traveled across Central America and Sri Lanka
       ✨ Converted and moved into her own ambulance home
       ✨ Built a thriving online presence with thousands of engaged followers
       ✨ Filled her client roster within months
       ✨ Written viral posts generating $200k+, selling out events, and attracting nonstop inbound clients
      ✨ Created REAL AF, a powerful new membership helping leaders create captivating, binge-worthy content

      Kate opens up about the courage it took to pivot, the reality behind going viral, and how “real AF storytelling” became her superpower. Her journey is a testament to trusting the leap, honoring your voice, and showing up authentically even when the path isn’t certain.

      This episode is packed with energy, inspiration, and the behind-the-scenes of what it takes to build a life and business that feels REAL. 🌿💛
