Y’all are about to be shook when you hear that my guest for this episode is, wait for it… a YOGA TEACHER.

Why yes, I *am* hilarious since 4 of my first 6 guests have been yoga teachers — but, hallooo, so much more than only that, and each one a gem in her own right.

This week’s guest is Emmy Singer, founder of Inner Light Yoga studio and one of my biggest inspirations and teachers in the yoga world. Like a few of my other guests so far, Emmy is a fellow Nashvillian —and unbeknownst (isn't that a fucking great word? hah) to me until we recorded, originally hails from upstate New York very near last week’s guest, Sarah Jane Chapman (www.wonderwelltherapy.com/blog/wtfp-07). Hello, small world!

In this episode, Emmy and I talk about:

- the winding path that landed her in Nashville, where she and her husband Lee opened up the city’s first music-based yoga studio, Inner Light Yoga (where I am so fortunate to get to be a part of the team)
- the importance of healers and teachers of all kinds being REAL as opposed to trying to seem like you have all the answers
- our shared curiosity about astrology, tarot, past life regression, and dreams, with some tips for beginning your own dream analysis
- how she views union of opposites as a framework for living — stillness and movement, connection and solitude, hustle and heart
- simple practices for opening up a little more to kindness, compassion, and non-judgment
- our musings on the law of attraction, the pieces that make most sense to us, and where we see its limitations
