Erin is recording this episode just days before flying to Japan—buzzing with excitement as she returns to the language, the culture, and even dives deeper into Japan's shamanic roots. It feels like her years of studying yoga and spirituality are coming full circle.

In this episode, she explores the Five A's of mature love—Acceptance, Affection, Appreciation, Attention, and Allowing. These emotional nutrients shape how we love, communicate, and show up for ourselves and others.

She shares stories, reflections, and simple tools to help listeners recognize which of the Five A's they might be craving—and how offering these qualities to themselves first creates deeper, healthier relationships.

For those who want to follow her journey in Japan or join an upcoming retreat, she invites you to reach out at [email protected] or visit thriveyogafit.com.
