Ever had an embarrassing moment in a yoga class and thought, “Please let no one notice…”?

In this episode, I’m sharing the most mortifying moment of my teaching career and other yoga teaching horror stories— and how it turned into one of the most human, connecting experiences I’ve had in the room.

This one is lighter, funnier, and very real… but underneath it all is a powerful lesson in leadership, vulnerability, and what it means to hold space for actual human bodies (not perfect ones).

In this episode, we chat about:

😬 Why I almost said no to teaching a class out of pure embarrassment
👏 The unexpected protocol that turned an awkward moment into a shared experience
💬 The flood of responses from other teachers—and the stories that had me crying laughing
🔥 The leadership lesson hidden inside your most embarrassing moments
🌀 How your willingness to be human gives your students permission to be human too
💭 The reminder that bodies do weird, unpredictable, very real things—and that’s part of the practice

This episode is sh*ts, gigs, and a little bit of wisdom.

If you’ve ever felt embarrassed in a yoga class (as a teacher or a student), press play — you are definitely not alone.
