  • Great session

    A thoughtful heartfelt interview that’s not built on celebrity names. Another great podcast! I love the fact that you don’t limit yoga to a few modalities or styles but is happy to go on the journey to explore how different people may find it in their own unique way.

  • You can have premium material on any podcast but to cut a podcast in the middle of an interview and tell people if they want to listen to the other part they have to pay is something that is not done. You can offer premium content but not violently cut and interview in the middle you just don't do that.

  • Too annoying lately

    I’ve decide to stop listening after the last several months of hearing J only refer God in the male gender.

Blair Hughes - "Life Affirming Values, Staying on Path"
Q: How has your approach to teaching evolved with moving between continents and online formats?
