Sandy’s BYTT Podcast, Every Episode is Relevant!
I just happened upon Sandy’s Podcast as a recommendation from Spotify. I have been listening to her podcast every day since Monday (November 7, 2022), and I’ve been listening to 1-3 episodes a day. Listening to the Podcast, I felt like Sandy was mind streaming all my thoughts and writing episodes on those thoughts. Sandy discusses meaningful topics that deliver insights and intentions about yoga. On Monday I started with Sandy’s more current episodes, so today (November 10), I started listening to the older ones. I got through 2, 3 and 4 while cleaning my house, and I learned so much. Sandy has valuable resources for all yoga enthusiasts, you will be happy that you listened.

All episodes are valuable - begin from episode 1 but also go back an re-listen to the topics that resonate most because you won’t be disappointed.
