Chelsey Korus on Turning Tragedy into a Love Story

Famous Failures

Chelsey Korus is one of the most preeminent teachers of yoga. Over the course of her career, she has been featured on Live! with Kelly and Michael, PopSugar, Fitness, Shape, Prevention Magazine, Yoga Journal, and Women’s Health, and many, many others.

She’s been teaching yoga since the age of 15 and has been an avid life long learner in numerous movement practices. She shares her vision with thousands of students every year, hosting retreats and teaching classes for Wanderlust.

In the interview, we discuss why Chelsea worked so hard in college to land a role in a New York City production, but quit after just a week of rehearsals; what strategies she used to deal with one of the hardest setbacks in her life; how she takes a tragedy and turns it into a love story; why she meditates on a few choice lines from her favorite poems every morning; and much and much more. This was one of the most honest conversations I’ve had on the podcast, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
