Episode #1 is Here!

Hi Guys!!

Episode #1 is here at last! Just in time for the weekend - Yay! 🎉 Having now realised just how much is actually involved in the editing process, I think we’ll make this a monthly thing! 🥴🤣

My Lovely Guest

Today I’m joined by one of my favourite people on Substack –

Jo Hutton

. Jo offers a combination of live classes and has an extensive on-demand library, as well as guided 1:1 classes as part of her “Happy Yoga Community” membership. On Substack she has “Yoga for Tired People” where you can access a wonderful selection of short, bite-sized videos with achievable yoga sessions, massage tutorials and meditations.

Jo is a real advocate for supporting people with a vast range of abilities and since discovering her on Substack, I have done more yoga than I had in years, due to the bite-sized videos that I can access whenever I feel like it. Knowing that they’ll be manageable and effective and won’t take too much time out of my busy schedule. Doing 5 or 10 minutes a few times a week, is better than not making it to the longer classes and beating myself up about it.

Our Chat

During our conversation we discussed many topics, that went off on some interesting tangents. We got talking about Jo’s business and how that came about. We also found ourselves delving into the perceived labels we adopted as children and how that has impacted us throughout our lives.

Jo opens up about her experience of discovering she has dyslexia, which lead to some interesting discussion about those who go through life with undiagnosed neurodivergence’s.

We also touch on our struggles with believing we have to do everything without asking for help, particularly as women raised by strong feminist parents. Also, briefly discussing Jo’s decision to not have children of her own.

With quite a few giggles along the way, particularly when we discussed how we connect with (or detach from) our bodies through Yoga Nidra or meditation… I really enjoyed our chat and hope you will too.
