I am so happy to welcome Sigi to the podcast this week. We discovered that I have probably been following her since she first started doing the same yoga challenges that I did. It was a different time back then. Not only is she a yoga teacher, she’s photographer and very talented photoshop artist as well. Her photos in the dunes are so gorgeous and some times her dogs and cat Romeo join her. She is a mother of two and they built her studio right on their property.
We also spoke about teaching online as the world is in quarantine and the implications of that in a country where so many live below the poverty line before the pandemic. She is as lovely as she is creative and her accent is enchanting.
Enjoy.

Joining me today is Marina, a lawyer, a yogi, a self professed hippie as well as a skateboarder. She and her partner partnered up to create Zupac Law. Marina talks about what she wants to do with both yoga and the law practice together. The law firm is upstairs and the yoga studio is down stairs and not only do they offer regular yoga classes, but they host events as well in the space. In addition to that they have a mobile law office and they go out into the community to help people and work to demystify the work they do. Marina has a practice of manifesting not only her clients, but also the supporting staff that she works with.

Kindra and I had so much fun talking about stories together. She shared how telling stories became such a big part of her life. She wanted to venture out to create her own company and not knowing what that might look like, she explained how she got her first speaking engagement and how she decided that would be what she would build her business around. After all of her speaking opportunities, she wanted to be able to share her knowledge of the power of stories with a wider audience and that led her to write her book, Stories that Stick. Her book releases in September!

This is part 2 of my conversation with Mindy. She shares all of the story around her mother’s murder in 2001 and the book she is writing. I loved hearing her motivation and dreams for what the book might help say about women as victims of violence.

Mindy joins me for another long conversation that will be available in two parts. Part 1 is all about her career in the military for 20 years, a surprise baby later in life and her transition back to civilian life. Mindy is a blogger, columnist and writer.

Anjua Maximo is a force, she’s a master Life Coach, a speaker and co-founder of GrooveRyde. This woman is a mover and shaker, has some great business vision and brings a great attitude about life to round out the mix. We had such a great time chatting together that we just kept chatting and chatting. This was a long episode for just one episode, so I have divided into to two, a longer one with a shorter one that will go live next Wednesday. So please look for that mini episode next week.

Due to scheduling issues May’s Topic Talk will be on hiatus. There is a whole lot going on for all of us right now. It’s my birthday Sunday and I have decided to talk about something I feel very strongly about. A woman’s right to choose, what to do with her body, her life and making sure that the war on women doesn’t take away our rights to our own bodies and lives. Be advised there are plenty of salty words in this one. I love a good salty word, because they are just words after all. You don’t have to believe what I believe and I hope that you will consider what I have to say and do your thinking and researching what’s going on. I’m a fighter, I will always fight for what I believe most in. You have the choice to listen to this or not, that’s the thing about choice.

This was quite an interview! It took some work to get it scheduled but I never gave up because I so wanted to have this conversation and share her amazing story. She took flying lessons at 15, quite flying to become a pro snowboarder, went back to flying after an injury and went from flying small planes to helicopters and also teaching others to fly. She now owns her own helicopter business in Alaska and takes the winters to travel the US and practice yoga along the way. The big thing now is that she is the first female jet pack pilot. Her story is so inspiring and I hope that you enjoy it as much as we did having the conversation. As always, thank you for listening!
