It's the month of March and that means it's Women's History Month and International Women's Day.

On top of that, Keltie is a very successful TV personality, a wife, a dog mom, a dancer, a friend, and so much more. And yes, she occasionally finds time to fit in some yoga or a delightful wellness retreat to tune in and reset.

Somehow, some way, we made it to February. Whew. Welcome. In this mini episode Kala gushes over the weekend-long Yoga & Trauma C.E. Course that Yoga to Cope and RecUniversal co-led in San Diego with 10 lovely yoga teachers. It was our very first live pilot program and to be honest, I can't believe it happened and can't believe it's already over! It was an honor and a joy, and it won't be the last so stay tuned for future offerings! As well, Kala dives into Black History Month by discussing the tumultuous time we continue to live in, under layers of COVID-19 fear, political messiness, and social justice conversations and activity hundreds of years in the making. This month we will be reading "Skill in Action" by Michelle Cassandra Johnson, and Kala shares some excerpts from the book that we hope will entice you to join in and read along this month for a tiny yet powerful book. It's so timely, and as Johnson writes, in order to effect change we must "be willing to make a mess".

Welcome to the first installment of an extension of the Yoga to Cope podcast. This series is called "Tough Women, Tough Stories" and will spotlight strong, vibrant, tough women in and around my life who have been through some truly challenging, life-changing, tough things in life thus far. I'm excited for you to meet these tough women, and hear their tough stories. Today, we meet my dear friend Nicole Bissey, a Kansas City-based professional photographer who recently lost her mom unexpectedly. She also pursued a long-time-coming divorce, and experienced a breakup and COVID all in the last year's time. She shares her experience with and opinion of yoga and how it's played into her life, why, how, and when she finally pursued a divorce she had been pondering, the story of realizing her mom had died, and the grief journey she's been on ever since. It was a pleasure to hear from my friend, and hope you will leave this conversation feeling inspired by her strength and outlook, despite being recently dealt some of the most difficult hands life can deal out.
