Your heart is interested in the depth of your own discovery." — Leo Lourdes What happens when you lose everything you worked for, only to realize you’ve already survived the most chaotic journey of all—simply being born? In this beautifully raw, laugh-out-loud funny, and deeply philosophical episode, Josephine sits down with newfound friend, globally renowned yoga master, author, and transformational coach, Leo Lourdes. Together, they step into the eternal present to map the landscapes of the human heart, exploring how our greatest breakdowns are often just fertilization for our highest renewals. Leo shares his extraordinary trajectory —from a childhood running wild on the beaches of Malaysia to sharing one room with his family of six in London , and eventually building a multi-million-pound wellness empire, only to see it dissolve during the pandemic. With refreshing candor, he opens up about childhood adversity , the hilarious tension of adolescent curiosity , the bittersweet end of a 9-year relationship that cost him a destination wedding , and how a random choir rehearsal at a London health center cracked his hardened heart wide open to possibility again. This conversation is a masterful co-creation on what it truly means to live life with an open heart and no agenda. Whether you are navigating heartbreak, reinventing your career, or simply trying to find your footing, Leo and Josephine invite you to stop viewing yourself as a static noun, step into your power as a fluid process, and ultimately, get in the water. In This Episode, We Journey Through: The Scent of Liberation: How a massive rose in a London park became Leo's first sensory anchoring point in a cold, unfamiliar country. Burger Curries & LARGE CVs: A loving tribute to the ingenuity of Leo’s mother, who traded status to feed her family, mastered the art of abundance out of scarcity, and taught him the ultimate lesson in psychology: love without shame. "I Am Not That": A powerful four-word mantra passed down from an Indian guru to gracefully navigate toxic energy, establish rock-solid boundaries, and release the heavy grip of attachment. The Anatomy of a Legacy: The cinematic behind-the-scenes story of how Leo shot his bestselling book, A World of Yoga, alongside lions in the Masai Mara during a global lockdown. Boundaries vs. Thresholds: Recognizing when life is asking you to protect your peace, and when it is karmically inviting you to step over the line into an audacious new adventure.
