Author and musician Nicolas "Quazzy" Herd discusses his philosophy and life path with hosts Vijay R. Nathan and Susanna McDonald
This week on the podcast I am joined by Nicholas Herd, more commonly known as Quazzy. Quazzy is a yoga and meditation teacher, the founder of Running River Collective and an advocate for the BIPOC community. On this episode, we talk about his journey as a yoga teacher, why he founded RRC and what they do, as well as how we can make our yoga classes more accessible to the BIPOC community. We discuss equity, diversity, and the importance of yoga being accessible for everyone. This is super informative and impactful episode! Enjoy! ---- This episode is sponsored by OfferingTree. Most yoga teachers struggle with two things: marketing and time management. It can feel overwhelming and scary to try and put yourself out there to get new clients. There's also never enough time to get everything done, like sending a newsletter, emailing your new clients, or updating your website.

Chris Charpentier, previous guest on the show, is moving the California. Here is a re-release of his episode which is certainly one of the best! He has always been a kind guy, who can jab you as fast as he can compliment you. Cory and Charpie spent Cory's first couple weeks in Denver watching their Boston Red Sox win a World Series on TVs all across Denver, which was a cool thing to do with another pre-2004 Sox fan. Wish Charpie well in LA and be sure he has an open invitation to be on this podcast whenever he'd like. Youi're the best, Daddy!
