    Ep. 16: A Runner’s Lifestyle, Covid Jeopardizing Women’s Promotions?, Bikram Yoga and Sexual Assault ft. Kendall Laveen

    Hi everyone! This is Real Lives, Real People with me, Arushi Saxena. On this podcast, I bring on people to hear their candid stories, as there’s more than meets the eye. Topics vary from what people are passionate about, have dealt with, or worldly matters important to them. I hope to give my listeners different perspectives and thoughts, and I hope you can take one thing with you from an episode!

    On this episode, I speak with Kendall Laveen. She is a dedicated runner, and we hear more about her running journey in the episode. She is also very passionate about healthcare and women’s rights as we discuss. Enjoy!

    *Trigger Warning: We generally discuss the topic of sexual assault in terms of Bikram Yoga and it’s first teacher in LA in reference to the Netflix documentary (starts at 33:00).
