Tessa and I had this conversation when we caught up way back in January while she was in Sydney for the Sarah Powers Training, but our journey together didn't start there. I met Tessa while on 200hr Yoga Teacher Training in Bali last year June/July. I was immediately struck by Tessa's calming presence and the ability she had to hold the attention of 80+ students on the retreat. This was a woman that carried immense power, the ingredients of which were made up of love, compassion, vulnerability, and caring. All sprinkled with a commitment to showing up as a leader for her community. This conversation is packed full of insights and lessons that Tessa has learnt along the way to running her successful yoga studio, Power Living Adelaide, with her husband. We Discuss: Balancing Yoga with other aspects of your life.Surrounding yourself with people that highlight where you are not showing up.Recovering from perfectionism.The importance of communication with your partner in business.Mindfulness/Meditation practices.You can find Tessa Leon below at:Tessa Leon InstagramPower Living Adelaide Studio InstagramPower Living Adelaide StudioSit back, Relax and Enjoy the Conversation.Thanks so much for listening!
