In today’s deeply honest and heart-opening conversation, Tatiana welcomes her longtime friend, yoga teacher, and super-connector Renee Groulx — a woman who has used yoga as an anchor through some of the most challenging seasons of her life.
Renee shares how she first stumbled into yoga 20 years ago, and how what started as “just a workout” slowly became the foundation that carried her through motherhood, injury, divorce, career stress, and even a rock-bottom moment that completely sobered her from alcohol and changed her life.
This episode is grounding, relatable, and a powerful reminder that you can always return to yourself — even when life feels chaotic, messy, or overwhelming.
✨ In This Episode, We Talk About:• How Renee discovered yoga and why it felt different from any other movement
Her early experience with playful, music-filled yoga classes that made her feel grounded, present, and strong.
How mindful breathing and deep core connection helped her rebuild her body long after childbirth — and even stopped the leaks, the back pain, and the feeling of being “disconnected” from her core.
Why leaking during sneezing, laughing, or jumping isn’t something you have to accept as “just motherhood.”
The power of having one thing that brings you back to yourself when your world feels like it’s falling apart.
Teaching yoga from a screened-in porch, dealing with terrible internet, showing up for a community that needed grounding — while navigating her own emotional storm.
How injury forced her to slow down, get creative, and find new ways to stay connected to her practice.
A vulnerable, powerful story about hitting rock bottom at her 50th birthday… and the life-changing decision that followed.
No fancy studio or perfect poses required — just breath, presence, and curiosity.
