Jessamyn Stanley: Mixing Ego, Business, & Yoga




Bad Yogi show

Summary: <p>Jessamyn Stanley is our guest today!</p> <p>Fun fact: this is the first episode I recorded as a MOM. That fact is totally irrelevant to today's episode, but still a fun little side track. If you're new around here, I just had a baby 6 weeks ago &amp; his name is Theo... my husband ended up taking him out for a walk while I had this interview which is also the first time I do an official "work" thing since his birth. Time flies, I'm telling you...</p> <p>Speaking of getting back to work, what an easy, warm welcome I had back with this interview with Jessamyn Stanley who is SO lovely I can't even tell you... If you don't know who she is, lemme give you some background. Jessamyn's a yogi who breaks all the stereotypes, has built a life as an internationally recognized yoga teacher and award-winning Instagram star by combining a deep understanding for yoga with a willingness to share her personal struggles in a way that touches everyone who comes to know her.</p> <p>She got dragged to a yoga class by her Aunt, hated it, then ended up revisiting &amp; falling in love with it later on.</p> <p>We talk about a whole range of things:<br> - A little about her yoga journey<br> - How we feel about our egos being yogis and businesswomen<br> - How she stays inspired to remain authentic on social media<br> - And yes, even that infamous Yoga Journal cover incident</p> <p>Enjoy!</p> <p>For more from Jessamyn, follow her on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mynameisjessamyn/">Instagram</a> &amp; learn more about her monthly yoga subscription, book, and where she teaches on her <a href="http://jessamynstanley.com/">website</a>.</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/badyogi/support" rel="payment">https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/badyogi/support</a>
