Namaste With Katie J Katie J

It has been a minute since I've checked in with you guys here on the Namaste podcast. Lots of life changes and business growth. Today I am filling you in on my latest venture - Shakti School with Katie Silcox. I am so thrilled to be pouring into myself so that I can pour into more women and help them heal their lives. I am also giving you guys an exclusive personal update that hasn't been shared anywhere else yet - stay tuned until the end! 

I am manifesting faster than ever before and I am so happy to have you along with me for the ride!

Today we chat with my one of my Soul Sisters from YTT! Kelsie Laing is a Yoga Therapist and registered yoga teacher. We touch on a lot of topics such as what yoga therapy is, plant medicine, plus the controversy around veganism and the yoga community. Sit back, relax, and listen. Namaste friends!

In this episode, I explain why I decided to stop shampooing, conditioning, and "doing" my hair. Follow me on the gram to see the photos of hair past and present! As a youngster, my hair was always forced into braids by my grandmother and mother. "Beaty is pain," I was told after I told them it hurt to have my scalp yanked around with a comb. There is no pain in my beauty. Beauty is my natural state and I embrace that through my current hair style of 100% free form locs.
