In this episode, we explore one of the most practical and heart-centered teachings from the Yoga Sutras, sutra 1.33, which invites us to meet others with friendliness, compassion, joy, and equanimity.

We talk about how this ancient wisdom can shape the way you move through everyday life - how you step into crowded spaces, respond to other people’s energy, and hold your own boundaries without closing your heart or becoming a doormat.

It’s about bringing softness into your presence.
And remembering that kindness is always your guide.

In this episode, Emilie shares how yoga entered her world not as a grand spiritual awakening, but as a need for something more than workouts and pushing harder.

How Vinyasa Flow, at a time in her life when everything looked “successful” on the outside -the corporate job, the steady career, the young family - became a rescue from anxiety and depletion.

She describes how it turned into a calling: to shift careers and build a business that supports women in feeling strong and grounded through life’s messiness just like she needed herself.

A heartfelt story about burnout, reconnection, and the surprising way yoga can change not only how you move but the direction of your entire life.

In this debut episode, Moni opens up about her transition from the world of dance and performance academia into the realm of yoga.

She reflects on how yoga first entered her life, the initial resistance she felt toward embracing it, and the pivotal moments that led her to shift careers and step into teaching.

It’s an honest, personal story about identity, creativity, and following the unexpected paths that shape us.
