Embraced Podcast

To me, finding a yoga teacher I like is similar to dating. I RARELY find a yoga teacher I am completely into, so when I found Patti Quintero I felt like I had hit the jackpot. Patti is a yoga/meditation teacher and founder of Uma Mother, which aims at connecting, inspiring, and empowering mothers through the rituals of yoga, meditation, and community. As a yoga teacher, she has the ability to simultaneously be deep and spiritual while also being super down to earth and not taking herself or the practice too seriously. I absolutely love this woman and know you will too, so tune in and enjoy hearing her story and her musings on life. Today we talk about: -Growing up in Bogota, Colombia -Her life before yoga -Meditation as the doorway into the world of yoga -The moment she realized she wanted to be a yoga teacher -How she became involved in working with pregnant women and teaching pre/postnatal yoga -Her experience as a 'renegade doula' before being officially trained -Stages of growing as a teacher -Mindfulne
