I am so excited to interview Les Leventhal in today’s session. I first met Les in San Francisco when he was teaching out here. He is unlike anyone else and is hands down the most grounded and down to earth person. He recently wrote a book where he talks about how he was an alcohol-abusing porn star and how he became a beloved, world-famous yoga teacher. In his inspiring memoir, Two Lifestyles, One Lifetime, Les Leventhal reveals his desperate and wildly self-destructive attempts to grasp at self-worth in a turbulent, hostile environment. His story is raw and honest. When I read his book my jaw was on the floor. His story is inspiring to say the least. You will enjoy this episode. We truly appreciate your support on this podcast and you all rock!

I love my podcast collaboration with Fierce Calm! Everything they do is so freaking cool and uplifting! Zephyr Wildman is an ambassador with Fierce Calm and I’m honored to have her on the show. She is a knowledgeable yogi and human based in London. She has an INCREDIBLE story about how yoga came into her life and helped her through the suffering and dark times. I met her in person last year in London at a yoga festival. The moment I met her, I was so inspired by her realness and outstanding attitude. She is brilliant, brave, and honest – you gotta listen to her story.

Today’s podcast will change your life, and change your day. I am always so honored to have Rocky on the show – on this episode we sat down and discussed our morning rituals. What we do, how we stay consistent and WHY we do it. Rocky mentioned that the morning is the best place to set the tone for the whole day. It is the most important time to reset the old patterns that don’t serve you and be proactive about how you want to spend the day. We have to be gentle with ourselves in the morning in order to take care of our spirit. Listen to the podcast and then let us know, what is your morning ritual?

Hey Tribe! Today I had an EPIC conversation with Dana Trixie Flynn, one of the most inspiring yoga teachers out there. Dana owns TWO yoga studios. One is called The Church of Yoga in New Orleans and the other is called Laughing Lotus, which has various locations including San Francisco. She has been teaching over 28 years. She brings so much wisdom and happiness to this episode. This convo was also REALLY COOL because I got to meet Dana IRL aka IN REAL LIFE! She just happened to be in San Francisco. She came over to my apartment, and we had a rad conversation about being connected and the importance of laughing together. She is an amazing human and an outstanding yoga teacher that understands yoga from the deepest perspective. We discuss all things yoga and how to step into our own individual awesomeness. She also presents a great reminder that joy is now and how we are all connected. EnJOY this episode.

I am so honored to have my new friend Mary Ochsner on the show!

 Mary and I met through the guys that helped to create our apps and then connected through Instagram! We then met IRL when she visited San Francisco! We became friends and enjoy talking about all things yoga. What really sparked my interest about Mary was that she creates the awesome tutorials for all yogis. She makes yoga really accessible to beginners and is really passionate about getting people on their mat. She reassures all of her students that it is okay to be in their bodies exactly as they are. It’s an honor and pleasure to have her on the show.

This episode we discuss the important of language. Language is powerful for both students and teachers and as teachers we have a responsibility to ourselves and the yoga students to be authentic and cautious with what we say. We also discuss the importance of always being a student and practicing from your own inner wisdom when the words of the teacher doesn’t resonate with you.

I am so excited to share this discussion with my teacher Jason Crandell. He is a HUGE inspiration to me and my yoga journey. In our talk we discuss where yoga has been and where it's going. Jason shares about his past experience of yoga in the 80s and how it's growing. He shares that he doesn't want to get too hung up on how things are changing because change is inevitable.

In this episode I chat with Selena Garefino. Selena shares her personal story that goes into detail about dealing with body dysmorphia, having several life changing surgeries and losing her spouse. She speaks her truth and gives insight into her practice and relationship with yoga. We agree that we all have to do the work, listen to ourselves, and take responsibility for our own healing.
