S1 E1 Coming Home to Myself-My Story of my Inner Practice
Episode 1: Welcome to The Inner Practice – My Story
In this first episode, I share my personal journey from anxiety and disconnection to finding healing through yoga. For years, I looked confident on the outside but struggled with panic, numbness, and burnout. Yoga shifted from being about fitness to becoming a way back to myself — helping me slow down, breathe, and reconnect.
