Yogi Misfit Sessions

I ran a marathon once… Yup, exactly one time. That was my first and it will be my last. But some people LIVE FOR IT! In many cases, these marathoners train year after year all year long. Then, they add in biking and swimming and call it a party! Yes, I'm talking about that unique beast: the triathlete. I never really knew how dedicated you have to be to participate in a triathlon. Nor did I realize how much training is involved. Then I met Louise Croxson.I have had the privilege of working with Louise as her business coach. What blew me away when we first started working together is how she had this niche in yoga that I have never seen executed before: Yoga for Triathletes! I've seen alllllll of the yogas but this one is fresh and frankly super intelligent. Louise is this week's guest on the pod. Tune in for a story about what these amazing athletes do and how yoga supports them in their training. You will certainly pick up some tips and tricks for your own yoga practice (even if you've never run a mile)! Enjoy, yogis.Follow Louise on Instagram @trilouiseyogaMUSIC: Process by 92elmSUPPORT THE SHOW: If you find this podcast valuable you can support it directly by visiting https://dannipomplun.com/support/WRITE A REVIEW: If you like the podcast, please leave a review or rating on iTunes!

It took me a long time to realize how much I could accomplish simply by putting my mind to it. I never really believed in my potential. And then sometimes when I did consider the incredible things I was manifesting, I failed to take a step back and appreciate how it was my focused attention that brought about all that positive change. The entire time I was comparing myself to others that were “farther along” the path instead of walking my own. And now, for the first time in a long time, I feel like I am truly living. I would not have realized any of this without the time to pause, breathe, and reflect with my best gal pal Yvonne Kingsley who joins me on this podcast.In this episode, Yvonne takes the wheel. She drives down the windy road of coming to the decision to open a yoga studio in San Francisco. It's been one hell of a ride already, and now here we are.

I never really thought a walk in nature was yoga, but it’s true. Any gateway to a mindful side is all a part of the practice. When Annie Carpenter mentioned this to me, it got me curious about other areas that bring us there. You see, Annie has this gift; she’s been teaching for a while and, in my opinion, is one of the titans. She has this special way of inviting you into your body without taking you fully out of the experience. She balances this fine line with grace and ease. It’s truly something special to see. I am so glad to have her on the show this week. What I loved about our convo is how easy it flowed. We’ve circled around one another in SF, and she’s always been someone I love and respect. She drops some beautiful wisdom about yoga that will make you reflect on all the places yoga truly is (y'all... it's everywhere!). This is one of those episodes that, for me, could have easily gone two hours.

Being a member of the LGBT+ community has made for some interesting plot twists in my life! It has obviously shaped me in a big way. And, like many of you, there have been a number of times during which I felt unsafe just for being who I am. This has happened as a young man and as an adult. Yoga was one of the places I did feel safe. I recently led a workshop on fostering LGBT+ yoga communities from the lens of my journey, but I know that there are so many amazing queer voices out there. As I build the studio out, I have thought at length about how to ensure it’s a safe space for my LGBT+ brothers and sisters.Michelle Crawford @mick.crawdad and I met a few years ago as we practiced within the same San Francisco yoga communities. She identifies as trans and kindly agreed to come on the show and share her voice. Her story is incredible and the ways she incorporated yoga on her journey is amazing. The tools of the practice helped her through her transition. She is an advocate for the trans community and continues to serve them in many, many ways. I invite you all to listen and learn from someone I deeply admire. If you’ve ever wanted to hear what bravery sounds like; it’s this. Michelle is brave enough to step into what it means to be authentically her. Tune in for her amazing story!

One of the greatest honors in this life is to witness my friends inside their growth process. I often get to see them step into their authentic truth, which is such a gift! Being allowed in to see someone’s life and to hear of all the twists and turns on their path is pretty damn special.This week's podcast is Part 2 of a check-in with one of my best buds, Rocky Heron @rockyheron. It had been a minute since we’ve podcasted, so we gave each other some air to talk about what is new in each other’s world. What I love about these two conversations with Rocky is how real we kept them. This is an invitation to listen to us express who we truly are in this moment and where we’re both headed on our yoga journeys and in our lives.

My mind is still blown by the reality of my opening a yoga studio in San Francisco. I took a moment and reflected back on all the things that have gotten me to this place and this space -- All the boxes I thought I needed to check. All the yoga teachers whose voices I borrowed until I found the power of my own. And, you know what? I wouldn’t take any of it back, because it’s gotten me to this place of deeply knowing my truth and passion. There’s no way around it: I love building community and holding safe space. It brings so much joy into my life. Rocky Heron @rockyheron and I haven’t done a pod together in a few months, but today we tuned in together. Prepare for the typical shenanigans and some checking in on where we are in life. We both had a few things on the brain, so this is part one of two. This episode shines a light on where I am at with my journey and what I am doing to move forward.

Are you tired?! I’m talking EXHAUSTED to the point of wanting to break down…I know how you feel. I’ve been there and you’ve seen it! This past year has been a crazy one and I’ve been practicing all of my yoga tools to bring my best self to you. I feel like the last few weeks I’ve been sleeping more, taking more breaks and trying to prevent burning out. So this episode came at the PERFECT time! Danielle Ryan Broida gave some insight on really cool ways on how to take care of ourselves and have more energy. Danielle is a Registered Herbalist (RH) of the American Herbalists Guild (AHG), Certified Holistic Nutritionist and National Educator at Four Sigmatic.

How many times have you heard yourself saying “HARD WORK.” Rather let me rephrase that, how many times have you heard me say, “I AM WORKING HARD''. I never once stopped to bother and think, “Why can’t the work be work but not hard all the time?”. Like why is it I have to create even its tone that it’s difficult? Tracee Stanley blew my mind when she brought me to the realization that it doesn’t always have to be hard. That we, in fact, deserve to rest.How many times did I have to burn out to realize this? (3… 3 is the correct answer in case you were curious...lol) This week on the podcast, I am thrilled to have Tracce back on the show. We met a few years back on the festival circuit. I had heard so much about her but never had the opportunity to practice with her; in fact, I had never even done a nidra before. But when I did, WOW. Just wow. In this episode, we talk about her new book Radiant Rest. It has been such a treat to see her put all her magic into this book. I have already taken a deep dive into it, and I love it so much we’re using it for the next book club in May, so be sure to grab your copy. I know her magic will do wonders for us all.

It’s HARD being human!!!!! Am I right? Navigating what labels society assigns you, navigating the way that others see your physical body (and the way that you see your physical body), navigating any depression or anxiety that comes along with that... You get where I’m going with this, right? I recently had an email come through thanking me for being so courageous and real in my storytelling. It’s important in my teaching and leadership to be authentically me so that others feel seen and represented and not alone. I’m here to share hope and show that there is a path forward towards being our true selves.This week on the pod, I connect with @jackworkmanyoga, a fellow queer yogi. He brings courage like no other on this episode. He had a recent IG post about his own experience with body image issues and I knew I had to hear him speak more of his truth. Like many of us, Jack has gone through ups and downs, but his reliance shines through. Yoga teaching is not always as glamorous as some people might assume. Listen for yourself...

We call them stories. Or shadows. Sometimes even trauma. We give many names to our life experiences, the ones that have shaped us for the better or worse. Mine include a laundry list of drugs, alcohol and self-inflicted harm. I did most of that, because I truly believed I didn’t deserve any better. I felt that way for a long, long time until I decided to get to know my pain. My shadow and trauma work started in yoga. The practice gave me the container to feel safe enough to hold what was there. As a teacher, I never want to force a student into a pose or position they’re not comfortable or ready for, physically or emotionally. Holding space for all of that requires a certain kind of mindset!Mia Togo @miatogo and I have been in each other’s orbit and I finally caught up with her to chat and go deeper into the wide world of shadow work. She has a unique gift of creating a container, whether that be in person or in online environments where she helps people feel safe to go in and excavate what is going on inside. On this week's podcast, she and I dive deeper into shadow work and how important this work is. Given the context of our world right now and that we’ve all just been through something that shook up our lives, I found that this episode gave me hope.

Knowing that I’ve found my passion and what I believe to be my dharma has been a gift; however, I know for a fact that I wouldn’t have made it this far without the guidance of my mentors. I’ve studied myself long enough to know that I can only get so far on my own. When I want to go further, I call on the support and insight from those who have walked the path before me. I not only call on my mentors, but I also call on those loved ones who will call me out on my shit and help keep me honest. I can happily say, “I LOVE WHAT I DO” every single day of my life -- even when it’s hard! This is my dharma and it is purposeful.Celest Pereira feels the same. I don’t know if she knows this or not, but she was a mentor to me before we ever spoke. Watching her be her authentic self has given me permission to do the same. She’s no stranger to the yoga show, and we’re both super passionate about helping our fellow yoga teachers turn their passion or niche into a decent living. She has this way of being inspiring even when she’s not trying to be. If you’re a yoga teacher, listen to this episode! If you know a yoga teacher, send them this episode! Celest and I jump into why yoga teachers should adopt a thrive-mindset towards their business. Sometimes all we need is a little nudge in the right direction to get moving.

I’m injured…. again. Yoga isn’t feeling good in my body (at least flow yoga anyway). I have a little bit of blame on ZOOM, but I do take full responsibility for my current injuries. It’s my own dang fault for not learning when to take a break. I often preach to students that you can make the practice yours by adjusting the intensity and I have never really thought about making that choice in my teaching practice. Why not give myself permission and lead by example? I feel like my injury came at the right time since I’m in an online teacher training that’s a bit slower than my normal vinyasa-based flow stuff and it’s slowing me down. Forcing me to pay attention.Dani Ibarra is one of those humans I call a COVID blessing. She’s one of the main teachers in a teacher training program that I am a part of right now. She’s a seasoned teacher who studied with someone whom I have always admired over my yoga career, Maty Ezraty. In this episode of SEEKER + SAGE she points out how we need to adjust both our practice and our teaching to fit the landscape of what the world is right now. Like me, she too has some COVID injuries. We get deep into how to take care of yourself as a teacher and a student participating in ZOOM yoga.

The T-word is out this week! TRAUMA... We've all got it. And although it's sometimes hard to talk about, it's important to acknowledge it. I'd never heard of Jennifer Harper before, but this wonderful human is helping kids and adults unpack this thing we call trauma. And she is getting us a bit more in tune with what's going on inside of ourselves. This is one of those episodes where I sat back and took notes the entire time!

I've always considered myself an asana-based teacher. And, for the most part, I just “get it” when it comes to postural alignment. As a vinyasa junkie, I am always looking for new ways to apply modern movement science to the way I teach classes and lead my yoga teacher trainings. My teaching completely changed a few years back thanks to the lovely human behind Yoga Deconstructed®. She made me fall in love with asana all over again!If you're not following Trina Altman @trinaaltman, you should start now. This week she's back on the SEEKER + SAGE pod and she's got some big news! I for one am super proud of her and selfishly so happy that she WROTE A BOOK! I picked her new read up and truthfully could not put it down until I finished it. One of my favorite parts about hosting this podcast is hosting amazing yogis and business minds with so much knowledge to pass on. Trina is no exception!

You have probably been able to tell that a big part of my journey recently is the practice of anti-racism. It took me a while to realize how much simply presenting as white can shape and change someone’s daily life. This realization has helped me learn and grow and it has also shifted the way I run a few things in my life. One of the things I'm fully committed to is opening up gateways to bring more yogis of all colors into the fold. One way I’m excited to do right away is to use my platforms to raise up other BI-POC, queer, trans and other unheard voices.This week on the Seeker+Sage podcast I had the honor of interviewing Danny Fluker. Danny is an incredible human who is also driven to bring yoga out into the world -- specifically to men of color. We get down into the nitty-gritty of his purpose and his mission. He shares his story on how yoga has helped shape his life. This is one of those episodes I had to playback to just deeply hear his message and get all those awesome nuggets. A big shout to our friends Fierce Calm for making this connection and helping others be heard.

Looking back at 2020, the thing I can recall most was my depression in the middle of last summer and how badly I wanted out... no matter what it took. I knew I was either going to do something incredibly self-destructive or something that would change my life for the better. I sat with this choice and came to the conclusion that I was worthy of better. In fact, I knew I deserved it. It's not easy, but I took the necessary steps to change up my routine and simplify my life. And this podcast speaks to just that - the value of your worth and the steps to take to feel at your best. On this week's episode, I have the pleasure of speaking with Tara Stiles, she is an author and true believer in the notion that everyone deserves to feel better. She believes this so much, she wrote THE book about it. She shares her tools on how to help us return home to ourselves. Tara and I must have been separated at birth. The moment we started speaking on this week's podcast, I knew she was a true Sage. Tara is down-to-earth, real, and gives it to you how it is, which can be hard to come by in the yoga world. Stick around for the end, where she ends the show with a sweet mini-meditation.

There are some big changes happening over in the land of Danni Pomplun. This week on the show I'm interviewed by the one and only Steven Andrew @stevenandrewyoga. Some of you might know Steven as my go-to sub when I can't be with you for class. He's definitely saved the day a few times in my life and has definitely been a true support when I needed it. He's not only seen the evolutions of my own life but also of the community as well. I feel really comfortable with Steven and he got me to open up and share where I'm going this year and how I came to those realizations. I gave myself permission to be vulnerable and hope this gives others permission to do the same.And BONUS alert!

Richie Bostock has popped in and out of my world for a little over a year now. My friends over at Fierce Calm @fiercecalm mentioned that we HAD to sync up and I am so happy we did. As one does, we got him to come on the podcast to chat with us about his wellness path. He brings breath work practice into the day to day similarly to how I bring yoga into the day to day. It's always interesting for me to hear what tools have been successful in helping others to achieve balance, grounding, and self-care. Yoga has many ways of doing this, but Richie has taken what he's learned and gave this practice an approach of his own. I got to experience it myself firsthand, and it's pretty freaking amazing!

Oh wow... Y'all this episode is a doozy. Listen, when I say something is tough for me, it's REALLY tough for me. In this week's Seeker+Sage, I share about living through one of my WORST NIGHTMARES. Even while opening up about this moment in my life, I quickly started to feel that dreadful shame monster creeping in. You know the one... The one that causes anxiety, internalized judgment, and debilitating fear... Ugh, I hate that thing! Gawd! Luckily, I was quickly reminded that I AM HUMAN by one of my favorite people on the planet. My good gal pal and leadership coach Sheri Colosimo is on this week and she takes us on a deeper dive into the world and transformation of the Danni you see before you today. Sheri has known me for almost a decade and has truly been there through thick and thin. She always has a way of reminding me that sh*t happens; it's our ability to not be defined by our own internal judgments that allow us to grow and move on. Needless to say, however, it's still a pretty funny story.Last year was full of growth for me and I am slowly learning how to operate as a whole - as my true self. Sheri and I go there... to the dark places of my journey. This episode is real, raw, and 100% me. No shame. No holding back. Just me.Follow Sheri on Instagram @shericolosimoJust for you I'm offering 20% OFF the annual subscription of my App! Grab it here!

And the podcast is back! Phew! Getting back from my two-week break and I'm feeling pumped. The first show of the year features Adam Carney from Yoga East+West. Truthlyfully. I have been dying to talk to another teacher about their experience with online yoga teacher training since this whole Covid thing struck.Adam runs a well know teacher training company that I truly respect and admire. He offers a solid quality product, experience, and journey for new students looking to become teachers. We get to chatting a bit about what we currently see on IG from teachers and how we feel about programs being offered and how we can learn, grow, and do better for our own programs. Adam was super insightful and helped me see through some of my own judgments and also speaks to how he decided to do things differently. Look, I have a ton of opinions on this subject right now and I don't think mines are any better or any worse than others. I'm excited for you to check out what we have to say and to meet Adam. He's a great guy doing it right.Follow Yoga East+West on Instagram @yoga_eastwestMUSIC: Process by 92elmSUPPORT THE SHOW: If you find this podcast valuable you can support it directly by visiting https://dannipomplun.com/support/WRITE A REVIEW: If you like the podcast, please leave a review or rating on iTunes!

We partner with Fierce Calm who is a non-profit organization, sharing community yoga saved my life stories, and supporting charities which make yoga accessible to all. Melanie is an ambassador for Fierce Calm and shares her #yogasavedmylife story during this episode. Melanie started teaching yoga in Afghanistan to military service members and civilians. She then got certified in Thailand, while there she was eating clean, and unknowingly at the same time she also had cancer. So, four months after she received her yoga certification, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Yoga tools such as breath work, meditation, movement, are tools that she used to get through one of the toughest times of her life.

In this episode of Dharma Dudes, Rocky and I discuss all the things that are going on in the world right now including the epic social movement and pandemic. As yoga teachers we ask ourselves, how should we show up right now? There’s lots of conflict and opposing opinions. It takes listening to ourselves and others AND doing the work. There’s the inner work and there’s the outer work. And as uncomfortable as it may be, we gotta do both. Tune into the convo and listen to how we are learning, growing, and showing up in the yoga world.

And we're back... We decided it was a good time to take a week off the show so we could LISTEN, REFLECT and LEARN. This week I brought a good friend of mine on the show. Ladies and Gentlemen introducing Max Kellogg. In today’s session, we had a real conversation with one another about the state of the world. Max shares about his dancing project that keeps him full of joy and I cover my new cooking passion. We talk about what keeps us nourished and brings us joy. We discuss how to keep this movement and momentum sustainable. Look into how COVID made us take a seat and how it truly made the world look at the deep issues that have been turning a blind eye to. This show gives a glimpse into really how amazing it is to be a human being on the planet right now. So much is changing but for all the right reasons. We have passed the tipping point and we can only move forward. But what does that look like? We discuss how it has been challenging to really ground in this moment and be actually present on the mat outside of work. This episode looks at how important returning to the breath can be and to really use each inhale and exhale to bring about change. The world is still turning, yogis.

You guys, Tommy Rosen is in the house! And he is up to A LOT, we dive into the world of addiction and recovery. Tommy shares about his past and also about his Recovery 2.0 program which gets under the layers of addiction and discovers what we are really running from. We discuss the great problem of addiction, and how underneath it are core issues that need to be dealt with and learning how to transform starts with breath. In addition to breath, it takes owning your stuff and taking responsibility for your feelings, emotions, and actions. We talk about how taking personal responsibility is difficult; but it's better to change than stay ignorant. You guys HAVE to listen to this one.

Sianna is a wonderful human being and we have the honor of guiding mutual students that practice with both of us! It was really cool to connect with Sianna. We discuss shadow work and for me, it’s a pretty new concept. It’s very interesting; becoming aware of the different side of ourselves that may be neglected. When we shine light on that side, we become more intimate with that part of our being. Shadow work tends to have fear or uncertainty behind it – yet, our own power lives in our shadows when we uncover it. If we are not paying attention to shadow, if left unattended, it begins to run our lives. It’s important to show all parts of ourselves and be brave enough to be vulnerable.

Yogis, I am so excited to have Davina on the Yogi Misfit Sessions podcast this week. We discuss home-life adjustments we have to make during this pandemic and how doing yoga from home has been an adjustment for herself and her family. Davina is also a lululemon ambassador and Fierce Calm ambassador. She was a school teacher before yoga and was moving toward becoming an Assistant Principal but then life changed and yoga became a place where she could be herself. Peace and calm snuck up on her and it’s been her path ever since.
