Shownotes
Ever notice how you're barely breathing at your desk? Like, actually check right now - I bet your breath is shallow as hell and your shoulders are somewhere up by your ears.
Most of us are so disconnected from our bodies it's not even funny. We're living entirely in our heads, overthinking everything, while our bodies are literally screaming at us. And that disconnection? It's keeping you stuck in patterns and beliefs that probably aren't even yours.
Brittney Hiller was managing a yoga studio - living someone else's dream - when she got fired. And instead of it being the worst day of her life, it became her wake-up call. She started teaching yoga outside, built her own studio and spa, and figured out that the fastest way to freedom isn't through your mind - it's through your body.
In this conversation, we're getting into how she turned getting fired into a business, why most of us are breathing wrong, and how something called laughter yoga (which sounds ridiculous but actually works) can unlock a kind of freedom most adults completely forgot about.
