Honestly Unbalanced

Adam Husler

Adam Husler cuts through the curated calm of wellness culture to explore what finding a grounded, balanced life really looks like — messy, moving, and unmistakably human, with clarity that’s always hard-earned. Adam speaks with people who’ve dedicated their lives to helping others live better — yoga experts, founders, meditators, athletes, deep thinkers, and friends with great stories — uncovering the tools, lessons, and ideas that genuinely help us grow. Each episode offers honest insight and practical takeaways to help you live with more awareness, integrity, and ease — even when life feels anything but balanced. For the curious, the questioning, and anyone tired of surface-level self-help — welcome to the conversation. @adamhusler / @centredstates

    #133 - Lucy Sesto - A Creative Approach to Working as a Yoga Teacher

    “I knew teaching 20 classes a week wasn’t sustainable. I wanted to find something slower, more spacious.” Lucy Sesto (@sestoyoga) shares how her journey from GB acrobatic gymnast to sought-after yoga teacher shaped a uniquely grounded and artistic approach to teaching. With a background in Psychology and Sociology, Lucy combines movement and self-inquiry in a way that feels both intelligent and deeply human. We explore her shift from gym floors and reception desks to managing a London wellness studio, teaching corporate yoga, running international retreats, and working alongside Joe Wicks on the Bodycoach platform. Lucy speaks openly about her intention to “make art, not content” on social media, the pressures of constant creation, and the power of stepping back to reconnect with joy and creativity. She also unpacks the emotional reality of holding space for others, setting boundaries, and how yoga and psychology beautifully intertwine. Whether you’re a yoga teacher, a creative entrepreneur, or someone figuring out your next chapter, Lucy offers grounded wisdom and gentle humour on how to live and work more authentically—and why slowing down is sometimes the most radical thing you can do.

    #132 - Rory Williams - Redefining Strength for Modern Dads

    "“So many guys look in the mirror and don’t recognise themselves anymore. Step one is taking back your physicality.” In this energising and brutally honest episode, we sit down with Rory Williams (@rory_strongdad)— fitness coach, father of two, and creator of the “Strong Dad” movement—to explore what it really means to be a modern father. Rory opens up about the pressures dads face today: being present, being providers, and being strong—mentally, emotionally, and physically. We discuss the silent struggles of fatherhood: lack of support, loneliness, and society’s limited celebration of committed dads. Rory shares practical tools for reclaiming your physicality and identity through strength training, early-morning routines, and daily habits—without sacrificing your role as a present, engaged parent. He also reveals how he grew his social media presence from 7k to over 80k in under a year by speaking directly to modern fathers with raw honesty and clean storytelling. If you’re a dad who’s ever felt lost, exhausted, or just wants to get back on track—physically or mentally—this episode offers powerful motivation, useful strategies, and a reminder that you're not alone. - WANT TO BE A YOGA TEACHER? - training in London, UK every Spring and Fall at triyoga Camden - https://tr.ee/1UILsE - WANT TO RETREAT WITH ME? - next stop, a Lake District castle - https://tr.ee/t4NViA - MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW US … @adamhusler - https://tr.ee/b8QKyF @honestlyunbalanced - https://tr.ee/i1PXpT @iamhollyhusler - https://tr.ee/0ORJPX - PERKS FOR YOU 10% off Liforme yoga mats with code HUSLER10 - https://tr.ee/PEju30 10% off expert validated wellbeing brand at Healf via this link - https://tr.ee/dPMj2Y 10% off Colorful Standard clothing with code ADAMHUSLERCS10 - https://tr.ee/R1ugsk 20% off Vivobarefoot shoes with code HUSLER20 - https://tr.ee/3Hs8kU 5% off Nurosym vagus nerve stimulation device with code ADAMH5 https://tr.ee/CCbg8x 25% off our online studio full of yoga, sound and meditation, with code HONEST25 (25% off single 12 month membership or reoccurring monthly membership until cancellation) - https://tr.ee/GCQdTB

    #131 - Adam Keen - Honouring Yoga’s Roots in Today’s World

    Adam Keen(@adam_keen_ashtanga) returns to the mic to unpack decades of experience as a yoga practitioner, teacher, and deep thinker. Practising since 1999 and one of the rare few to complete the Advanced A series in Mysore under Sharathji, Adam shares insights that only years of dedication can offer—cutting through the fluff of modern yoga while still teaching with compassion, humour, and nuance. Drawing on his experience running a Mysore programme in London for over a decade and his time immersed in the roots of Ashtanga at Purple Valley Goa, we explore; spinal stimulation, aging as a teacher, spiritual bypassing, social media illusions, and whether yoga is becoming just another performance art. For those interested in intelligent, inclusive, and reality-based yoga, this episode offers clarity, humility, and some laugh-out-loud truths. Adam now shares his reflections through the Keen on Yoga podcast, YouTube, and social media—Whether you’re a newer teacher or a long-time student, this conversation offers sharp insight into how we can honour yoga’s roots while teaching in today’s world-—and why sometimes the most revolutionary thing we can do is admit we’re still figuring it out. - YOGA TEACHERS - join my 75 hour mentor and education programme - https://tr.ee/uzn6xj - or deepen your skill in my weekly online teachers practice on the Honestly Unbalanced studio - https://tr.ee/GCQdTB - or join me on my trainings around Europe - https://tr.ee/3KKLdz - WANT TO BE A YOGA TEACHER? - training in London, UK every Spring and Fall at triyoga Camden - https://tr.ee/1UILsE - WANT TO RETREAT WITH ME? - next stop, a Lake District castle - https://tr.ee/t4NViA - MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW US … @adamhusler - https://tr.ee/b8QKyF @honestlyunbalanced - https://tr.ee/i1PXpT @iamhollyhusler - https://tr.ee/0ORJPX - PERKS FOR YOU 10% off Liforme yoga mats with code HUSLER10 - https://tr.ee/PEju30 10% off expert validated wellbeing brand at Healf via this link - https://tr.ee/dPMj2Y 10% off Colorful Standard clothing with code ADAMHUSLERCS10 - https://tr.ee/R1ugsk 20% off Vivobarefoot shoes with code HUSLER20 - https://tr.ee/3Hs8kU 5% off Nurosym vagus nerve stimulation device with code ADAMH5 https://tr.ee/CCbg8x 25% off our online studio full of yoga, sound and meditation, with code HONEST25 (25% off single 12 month membership or reoccurring monthly membership until cancellation) - https://tr.ee/GCQdTB

    #130 - Anthony Mullaly - Moving from Brute Force to Grounded strength and Resilience

    From international rugby player to breathwork and resilience coach, Anthony Mullally has walked the path from brute force to grounded strength. In this raw and timely conversation, Anthony shares how his journey through elite sport—and the identity crisis that followed—led him to question traditional ideas of masculinity and purpose. Now a senior instructor for Deep End Fitness, he helps others push past their perceived limits through a unique blend of breathwork, functional fitness, and aquatic-based stress training. But Anthony’s mission goes deeper: he's working to redefine what it means to be a man today. We talk about the shame men feel around vulnerability, the outdated idea that rest is weakness, and the urgent need for male role models who embody compassion, strength, and self-awareness. Anthony’s retreats offer an antidote to the “alpha male” noise—creating spaces where men can show up, breathe, reflect, and grow. No ego. No warrior chanting. Just real connection, real work, and real transformation. If you're curious about modern masculinity, mental health, or how breath can lead to breakthrough—this one will hit home. @mullaly91 WE CHAT ABOUT Why many men avoid mental health & self-development workThe role of shame, vulnerability, and societal conditioningHow mindful use of language can help open doors for menThe evolution of masculinity in the modern ageBuilding inclusive, grounded men’s retreats Transitioning from pro rugby to breathwork and retreatsUsing pool-based stress training to develop nervous system resilienceThe balance of physical strength, emotional regulation, and purpose PERKS FOR YOU 10% off Liforme yoga mats with code HUSLER10 10% off expert validated wellbeing brand at Healf via this link 10% off Colorful Standard clothing with code ADAMHUSLERCS10 20% off Vivobarefoot shoes with code HUSLER20 5% off Nurosym vagus nerve stimulation device with code ADAMH5 25% off our online studio full of yoga, sound and meditation, with code HONEST25 (25% off single 12 month membership or reoccurring monthly membership until cancellation)  STAY IN TOUCH @adamhusler - a...
