              Modern Mogul was formed on the concept of bringing modern and ancient ideas together from technology to yoga and from innovation to intuition and intention. This is why after taking some of Rev. Jagadisha's classes I knew we had an aligned perspective and I invited him to talk with us on the podcast from his wealth of knowledge and experiential wisdom in yoga study and teaching for over 2 decades. 

              In this episode we are talking about: 

              • How he felt called to be a yoga teacher and share the practice with his community 
              • His definition of yoga and why it matters in the yoga room and in the boardroom 
              • How to apply yogic teachings and ancient practices to daily life
