I love the idea behind new mama & entrepreneur Erin Motz's brand Bad Yogi. I have often thought of myself as a bad yogi also or didn't fit into one box.

Today this mama tells us why she wanted to make yoga accessible to everyone + a little more accepting to the world. Erin speaks candidly about the "internal tug of war" of wanting to spend time with your kids & contribute creatively to the world. She also speaks about mom guilt and how we can never win in our own minds and are often really hard on ourselves.

She also speaks honestly about PPD and the fog that has rolled in and out since having her son Theo.

Mamas! How are you holding up? I am holding an IG LIVE this Friday March 20th at lunchtime to talk about creative ideas for moms with social isolation measures in place during these challenging times. We will talk about creative ideas for being home with littles and kids of all ages. We will talk about self care and how we will approach that now that we are more insular. We will also discuss wellness practices like meditation, journaling, reading etc. during this time as well as staying healthy mentally and physically. Come join me! @soulmammaspodcast.

94: Why a former public school teacher chose to homeschool her kids, and the human design with Nicole Mc Namara, wife of legendary big wave surfer Garrett Mc Namara

Nicole Mc Namara is wife of big wave legendary surfer Garrett Mc Namara, was one of the first women to tow in at Nazar, one of the biggest wave spots in the world. She’s done a lot of research on Human Design and learning how different individuals energy type is released in the world & bettering yourself constantly as a person.

As a former school teacher, with a Masters in Environmental Education, Nicole knows about public education. Because she didn’t resonate with the idea that we are “smarter” or less smart than those around us, she’s made the choice to homeschool her children.

Nicole knows that homeschooling isn’t for everyone, and isn’t the “easier route” by any means. Nicole is constantly reminding her little ones that each of us has a super power and we are here on this Earth to figure out what it is.
