Did you know the word yoga is derived from the Sanskrit word meaning to join, unite, connect? My guest today, Catherine Gallagher, shares how it’s ALL yoga — especially when we’re traveling.

Catherine is an extremely experienced yoga teacher who hosts retreats globally through her brand “The Empower Method”. Through asanas and heart-opening meditations, Catherine’s classes focus on self-love, peace and compassion.

Today I am joined by the most delightful Susie Emilie: sound healer, inner voice facilitator, digital nomad, spiritual seeker, cat lover and so much more! 

Susie and I first connected through inner voice facilitator training and I really enjoyed hearing more of her story during this interview. Hailing from Munich, Germany, Susie has been a traveler most of her life and after a couple rounds of corporate burnout she took the leap to become a full time digital nomad back in 2017, spending part of her time abroad and part of the time in a camper van. 

Earlier this year, she traveled from Germany to Mexico and onwards to the US so you’ll want to tune in for her tips on international travel today!

We also cover: 
- The first step to turn your nomadic dreams into reality
- The unspoken truth of long term travelers
- Susie’s spiritual quest and how it led her around the world and then straight back home
- The stranger she met in Mexico that led to a huge realization 
- Her winning strategy for sailing through immigration and customs
- The reality of travel fatigue and overcoming post-covid travel fears
