Today, we're diving into a community birth story that's far more than just a tale of delivery. Ready for some intriguing details? My guest recently welcomed her third baby. She's been a dedicated student at PYC for nine years, and she's been featured on the YBB podcast three times, sharing insights from all three of her births. But there's even more… each of her births involved induction, each for different reasons. Today on Yoga | Birth | Babies, I have Yali Szulanski. Yali is an educational wellness consultant, a trauma-informed emotion specialist, teacher, and writer. She received her master's in psychology and education from Teachers College, Columbia University, with a special certification in spirituality mind-body integration. Yali is currently on track to receive her rabbinic ordination in 2025 and is also the youth director at the Hebrew Institute in Riverdale, where she lives with her family. Yali brings a wealth of philosophical wisdom and life perspective to our conversation that I can't for you to hear. Join us as we uncover how something as seemingly simple as a running practice can be equally as profound as giving birth to 3 children.

Jennifer was forced to drop out of high school during her 11th grade year due to an unstable home environment and limited parental guidance. Nevertheless, she was able to overcome each obstacle.

Jennifer has served in the workforce and in the community for nearly thirty-seven years as a customer service, associate, motor coach operator, a semi-trailer operator, and she went on to become a taxicab driver.
