All Things SOUL - living authentically, healing and thriving through trauma and life’s challenges

There comes a moment when the ground beneath your feet feels like it's giving way, and yet, it's in this freefall that we often find our wings. Kate Moon joins me to share her courageous journey from the depths of addiction to the heights of healing through yoga and vulnerability. Kate's candid recount of her battles and breakthroughs offers a beacon of hope to anyone navigating their own turbulent waters. Navigating the business of yoga can feel as complex as the poses we hold, but the truest test often lies outside the studio's walls.

We explore the art of reconnecting through retreats and nature, pondering the balance between embracing modern technology and fostering genuine bonds. As we move through the conversation, we uncover the vibrancy and adaptability of the yoga journey, from in-person retreats across the globe to the digital sanctuary of online classes.

Join us for an episode that weaves vulnerability, healing, and the enduring human spirit into a tapestry of inspiring narratives.

In this episode, you will hear:

• The role of yoga and movement in addressing emotional and physical issues and promoting personal growth.

• Challenges faced in opening and running a yoga studio, including financial struggles, natural disasters, and learning from resistance and failure.
