In this episode of the Body of Wisdom podcast, I had the immense pleasure of diving deep into conversation with Jody Vassallo. Jody is a beloved expert in Ayurveda, Ki and yin yoga and holistic health, and she is the creator of the Insta-famous black sesame cake! Jody has a poignant life story that deeply informs her compassionate and insightful approach to wellness (you can find her enriching content on Instagram @jodyvassallobeautifulfood). Her multifaceted journey through personal challenges, particularly infertility and menopause, alongside her extensive experience with Ayurvedic practices and yoga, makes for an enriching conversation that blends spiritual insights with grounded, practical wisdom. In this episode, we cover:

Jody's fascinating career, from Home Economics to author (Jody has written 40 cookbooks!) and publisher to Ayurvedic practicioner and counsellor to Yoga teacher trainer and international retreat leader
Jody's profound connection with yin yoga and its transformative impact during perimenopause and menopause, especially
Jody's personal growth through the challenges of infertility, exploring her emotional journey and the holistic practices that helped her navigate this period
Reflections on ageing, transformation, and the vital role of community support in navigating life’s significant transitions
Ayurvedic strategies for creating a nurturing environment for children, emphasising the importance of stability and routine to manage their energy effectively
Insights into her professional endeavors, including upcoming yoga trainings and retreats that integrate her deep knowledge of Ayurvedic principles

This episode is a delicious blend (rather like Jody's Tilba Chai!) of empathetic storytelling, expert wellness advice (through the lens of Eastern medicine), and introspective insights, all presented in Jody's uniquely nurturing yet practical style. Youre bound to find invaluable wisdom in our conversation. So, tune in and join us as we explore Jody's Body of Wisdom.
