Great Listen

I love listening to Spirit Moves podcast while I’m working out in the gym or going for a walk. The topics are interesting and nuanced and you can feel that Ella is excited and curious about her subjects like Intuition or the Breath ... I love exploring these ideas too. She also has really cool, renown guests like Judith Lasater.
