Her childhood was filled with danger, confusion, and angst. Picture East LA in the 1990s - neighborhoods filled with gang violence. Police were overstepping their authority, creating fear and mistrust. Drive-by shootings. Riots. Burning buildings. All the media portrayals from that era were very real for Rosie Acosta in those days. Growing up in such a harsh environment took a toll on this episode's guest. By the age of fifteen, Rosie found herself standing before a judge, facing severe penalties for a surprisingly bold and brash crime. Her youth had plenty of anxiety and confusion. Because she witnessed people getting stabbed, shot, and beat up on the street, Rosie had PTSD. She also knew nothing about health and nutrition in her young life. Living on the “McDonald's Diet,” Rosie was over two hundred pounds at one point, living a life of quiet desperation. Confusion followed Rosie around like a dark cloud, mainly due to the spiritual mixed messages and failures she witnessed happening inside her community growing up. (Rosie shares her childhood in detail with Wade during the first part of the episode. Wade's attention is riveted to her compelling story. Don't miss it.) But then, one day, her mother left some brochures on her bed, and that's when Rosie's journey took a spiritual turn that changed everything. (You will hear her powerful story about how meditation and yoga transformed her soul to a place of Radical Love.) Today, Rosie is a yoga and meditation teacher and a holistic health coach who works with a wide range of students. Her clients range from East LA residents to Olympic athletes, NFL champions, NBA All-Stars, and military veterans who have seen combat. Rosie is on a mission to help others overcome adversity, anxiety, and low self-worth and replace those negatives with radical love. She has been featured in Yoga Journal, Well + Good, Forbes, and the New York Post. If you want to feel radically loved, hit that play button. In this podcast, we cover: What was a typical day like in Rosie's childhood and how she navigated all the dangerous traps Her recounting of the day she skipped school to seek enlightenment The exact moment when Rosie's spiritual awakening took place Why do people need to get past their “Amazon Expectations” Why does the law of attraction kick in when you get your fitness on track Why and when things turned in a positive direction for Rosie When a person exudes electromagnetic attraction and becomes what they seek How yoga led her out of teen crimes to teaching yoga to star athletes How Rosie mentally pushes through those lazy, apathetic moments we all experience The Power of Intention At one point, Rosie says, “I do believe in the power of intention and the power of belief. Also, the right people are coming in at the right time.” “The moment that I started to bring my awareness to feeling good and focusing on my body and my health, everything else started to fall into place.” “I started getting different job opportunities. I ended up working as a hair salon manager for this celebrity hairstylist. Here I was 19 years old and an ex-criminal - yet I got asked to run a million dollar business.” “Now, he didn't need to know my colorful past. At the time he offered me the job, I was working at another salon, and he recruited me because he heard that I was doing a great job.” “So that's all it took - one opportunity. One person believed in me and gave me that sort of positive feedback. At the time, I was still learning more. I got more into nutrition and health. I got off the McDonald's diet. I started eating organic foods. I read the China Study. I went deep into wellness. I made a new set of friends.” “My world started to expand. I started to see the difference in putting your energy into things that were making you better. I felt better. I started attracting people in my life that were also doing the same type of work that wanted to be better as well.” One thing Rosie loves about yoga is THIS Another snippet of Rosie's wisdom: “One of the main things I like about yoga is cultivating discernment.” Wade asks, “What does that mean to you?” Rosie: “For me, it means knowing what to do when you're off of the safety of your cushion. Because I know what to do when I'm on my mat. I know what to do when I'm on my cushion. That's easy for me. I've been doing it for years now, almost two decades. That's easy.” “But taking that and actually going out into the world and being a kind, compassionate, present human, that's a different story. There are so many variables thrown into that, which are happening simultaneously. Discernment means to know the difference between knowing what's going to serve the highest good.” “Sometimes things that you may not think are going to serve your highest good serve do serve your highest good.” “It's difficult to navigate a world that's full of impermanence. It's difficult to navigate a world that's constantly changing.” Wade and Rosie then go into more conversation about impermanence and our mortality. Death is a topic that is kept tidy and tucked away in western culture. But Wade brings up the eastern view of death, and Rosie expands on our impermanence and how we struggle by clinging to this material world. This turns out to be one of Wade's most in-depth interviews - a conversation that goes deep into the spiritual realm of our existence. Rosie's clients see firsthand how physical transformation leads to spiritual transformation. Or, at least it should. The person must be mindful to include spirituality into their life for a complete sense of wholeness. Can you feel the radical love? Tune into this episode and tap in!

Rosie Rees is a leading Sex & Relationship Coach, founder of crystal sex toy compay 'Yoni Pleasure Palace' and creator of the well-known three hour Women's Nude Yoga workshop, 'Naked Awakening'. Yoni Pleasure Palace is Australia's leading supplier of glass and crystal pleasure wands, yoni eggs and feminine wellness products. Our yoni eggs are designed to help women with their pelvic floor strength and our pleasure wands promote slowing down your self pleasure practice and awakening pleasure inside the vagina, rather than purely having a focus vibrator-induced clitoral orgasm. After ditching her vibrator in 2013, Rosie decided to create an online shop dedicated to slowing down self pleasure and prioritising pelvic floor wellness. What started with a simple Jade Egg practice transformed into designing bespoke pleasure wands and de-amouring tools for women with differing pelvic needs and pleasure desires. As a modern day nudist, Rosie also believes that spending more time naked on the yoga mat creates a healthier body image and improves our beliefs and perceptions about our body. How Rosie knew she had a calling and how she was following the breadcrumbs her Divinity led her to where she is right now To be able to open your sexuality, we need to be able to feel the foundation of safety. Safety creates opening - which is why she loves to teach about Yoni eggs. How she has learned to become very connected with her sexuality How her mission is to normalize things that are perceived taboo through sharing more of her own experience, including the nude yoga practice of "naked awakening" How she was curious about different shapes and sizes of sex toys which inspired her to start designing the sex toys in her business: Yoni Pleasure Palace Connect with Rosie: Website: https://www.yonipleasurepalace.com/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/yonipalace/ IG: https://instagram.com/yoni_pleasure_palace/ @yoni_pleasure_palace @rosie.rees @sacred.squirter @naked.awakening @twomumtribe
Today we talk about how Rosie has had to reinvent how she approaches motherhood and being a wife. Adam has taken on the role of washing the laundry and has become very good at it. You have to pose certain questions to yourself when you're trying to reinvent, such as what am I doing? Am I happy about what I'm doing? Is there a better way? Sometimes we get stuck in our own routines, but as we pose these kinds of questions, we can come up with better ways to shift and adapt. Another important question to ask would be, what do you want your life with your family to look like? As your business grows, you're going to realize you need someone to do the more concentrated work, and that's when you get your spouse, or hire someone to be able to specialize within your business so that you can focus on the bigger picture. How Rosie's reinventing her roles 2:31How she squeezes more into the day 5:02When we get confused 16:15“Have you ever worked at a job where somebody sits at their desk from 9 to 5 and they're not productive, but their belief is that you need to sit at your desk 9 to 5 and that's it. That's how it has to be. And then you've got somebody else who believes in efficiency and creating value, and they may come in and out of their desk, but everything they do is to create value. It's like, you can get stuck in your business where you start to make rules that don't make sense where you're ruining your own life.” 19:03https://www.facebook.com/theirishmummy/https://www.instagram.com/the_irish_mummy/https://www.theirishmummy.comhttps://www.theirishmummy.com/ebook

She started with a restrictive plant based route, but soon learned that balance was necessary. [03:39] Prep is so important, because then it will be there when it is needed. It's hard to find time to put meals together. Having things premade helps so much. [05:19] Amazing food prep for the plane and hotel rooms. She got a little skillet, because some hotels don't offer microwaves. She would bring a spiralizer and heat zucchini in her room. This has made her job more fun. [08:05] Self-care. Rosie was so excited about every bit of her job. She worked a lot and made sure she was seeing everything on her layovers.

[10:26] Rosie's best memories revolve around people and meeting unintentional friends. The importance of connection and in-person relationships. [12:56] Meal prepping. Mason jar salads. So easy to pop lid off and throw in dressing. Pre Packed salads and meals, plus the ingredients for other meals for longer trips. Filling meals don't require snacking. Bars, chips, chocolate, and fruit are great snacks. [16:51] Flight attendants don't have liquid restrictions. Being a flight attendant is such a cool job. The travel and flexibility is amazing. The importance of pursuing your true happiness and when work isn't work. [22:06] Rosie loves going to Hawaii. She gets to go there once a month.
