Adam and Holly Husler

Wednesday, August 16, 2023 • Duration 45:23

Throughout the process of writing The Yoga of Parenting and conducting interviews for this podcast, I’ve had the opportunity to listen to and learn from parents with children of all ages. And in this delightful discussion, I chat with Adam and Holly Husler. Adam is a renowned yoga teacher with a robust schedule in the UK and abroad, Holly is a celebrated sound healer and yoga teacher, and they’re both the parents to baby Sonny and hosts of the “Honestly Unbalanced” podcast. In this episode, we talk about the surprises, delights, and challenges that come with having a new baby. We acknowledge how a little one affects a traveling teacher’s busy schedule, when our pre-baby parenting expectations about staying home vs. working to support the family don’t line up with a more nuanced reality, and how the yoga we did pre-baby provides a valuable storehouse we can tap into after baby arrives.

Other topics we cover:

Formal practice vs. informal practice (we don’t all agree on this one!)
Why we’re all leaning more toward strength training over asana these days.
Holly and Adam’s skillful answer to the “how’s the baby sleeping?” question.

The Huslers (Adam and Holly) offer London yoga classes, retreats, international event teaching and host the “Honestly Unbalanced Podcast.” They also share all of their skills online via “Home with The Huslers.” Adam hosts teacher trainings and international workshops while Holly leads sound journeys and records music. Between them, they’ve appeared in Mens’ Fitness, New York Times, Evening Standard, The Telegraph, Lonely Planet, Elle, Nat Geo Traveller, Channel 5 and more.

Jane Austin

Wednesday, July 26, 2023 • Duration 51:02

I consider Jane Austin the absolute queen of prenatal yoga—and for good reason! Since 1990, thousands of pregnant people, parents, and yoga teachers have attended and raved about her yoga classes, workshops, and trainings (including me!) In addition to her background as a birthworker and prenatal/postpartum yoga teacher, Jane is also the parent of adult children. In this delightful episode, we talk about importance of community and ritual during and after pregnancy (particularly in a culture that lacks this), helping our kids to establish healthy views on body image and sexuality, and tools from the yoga tradition we can tap into for support during and long after pregnancy. And Jane regales me (and you!) with her stories from over three decades specializing in prenatal yoga.

Other topics we cover:

Why it’s so important for prenatal teachers to support students’ birthing choices and understand that what worked for us might not work for them.
Why it’s crucial for pregnant people and parents to support each other during important transitions.
The very unglamorous ways that we’ve snuck in self-care while pregnant and parenting.
The surprising power of tree pose in a postpartum practice.

Jane Austin is the founder and director of Mama Tree, a prenatal yoga school dedicated to educating yoga teachers, doulas and midwives on how to use the tools of yoga to support pregnant people and new parents in all stages of the childbearing year and beyond. She weaves her experience as a midwife, doula, childbirth educator and mother into her work. Visit her and learn more at janeaustinyoga.com

Darren Main

Wednesday, July 19, 2023 • Duration 57:00

After interviewing Darren Main for The Yoga of Parenting, I realized I was still eager to know more about his parenting journey—in particular how fatherhood has shaped and changed him as a person, and as a practitioner of yoga. That’s why he’s one of the few book contributors that I’ve brought back for this podcast. As the single dad of a teenager, Darren has a whole lot of experiential wisdom to offer—more than I could fit into one section of my book—and I’m so happy to share more of his story with you in this latest episode. In it, we discuss what it’s like to become a parent quite literally overnight, the joys and challenges of single parenting, and how having children helps (and let’s be real, often forces) us to reexamine our priorities.

Other topics we cover:

Adjusting expectations (why Doritos and video games aren’t the end of the world).
Creating and maintaining a network of support, both for our kids and ourselves.
The beautiful and unexpected ways that our parenting experiences shape our identity.
Finding work/life balance as a yoga teacher and parent.
Lessons from addiction recovery and the importance of caring for our own mental health.

Darren Main has been writing books, teaching yoga and speaking about mindful living for over 30 years. His work has evolved to support yoga teachers and studio owners in growing a successful and ethical yoga business. He currently lives in Northern California with his son Jaden where he teaches yoga in San Francisco’s iconic Grace Cathedral. Learn more at darrenmain.com.

Wednesday, July 12, 2023 • Duration 49:33

Dené is the co-host of the podcast “Cheaper than Therapy,” an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, yoga teacher, and mom to a six-year-old. In this discussion we delve into Depth Psychology (what it is and how it informs Dené’s parenting), tools for supportive co-parenting (both for couples with kids and for parents who aren’t together), and why we, as a society, must do more to support parents of all genders in order to help families thrive.

Other topics we cover:

What it’s like for a yoga teacher to become a therapist, including Dené’s observations from being a therapist while pregnant.
The specific parenting challenges that women often face.
Our kids’ unique personalities and the delight we experience when they pick up on our tools from therapy.
Why the yoga that informs our parenting most might not look anything at all like “yoga.”

Dené Logan is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, Yoga and Mindfulness Instructor, and Group Experience Facilitator who’s passionate about sharing with others the tools she’s found to be most helpful in her own journey. Learn more about her services, courses, events, and work (including her upcoming book!) at deneselkin.com.

Caring for our own parents as they age and navigating the grief we experience after losing a parent.
Changing priorities and being okay with letting things go.
Observations on being both a yoga teacher and a mom.
And why you might just want to take up knitting!

Hala is the mom of a 12-year old and a teenager and shares invaluable nuggets of wisdom from both her personal experience and her professional expertise.

Finding the right balance between protecting our kids from harm and allowing them to make mistakes and develop resilience.
The unique challenges of post-pandemic parenting.
Helping kids develop a healthy understanding of sexuality.

Dianne Bondy

Wednesday, June 21, 2023 • Duration 50:06

In this episode, I share my recent conversation with acclaimed yoga teacher, activist, author, Yoga for All Founder, and mom of two teenage boys, Dianne Bondy. We dive into the unique joys and challenges that come along with parenting teens including preparing them for life after high school, maintaining close and healthy relationships, supporting and celebrating their successes, and the specific challenges that parents who are raising Black sons face in a world that doesn’t offer them the same safety that it does their peers.

Dianne shares not only her experience as a mom but also reflects on her own childhood being raised by immigrant parents and how we can see the love and care behind the choices our caregivers made even if we decide to parent differently ourselves.

Other topics we cover:

Realizing your desire to have kids later rather than sooner.
Supporting and uplifting both parents who stay at home and parents who work away from home.
The unexpected ways that yoga informs Dianne’s parenting.
Why it’s okay for your identity as a mom to be something that’s “just for you” and your family and not something you always need to announce to others.
A sneak peek at the new Yoga for All training.

Dianne Bondy (she/her) is a social justice activist, author, accessible yoga teacher, and the leader of the Yoga For All movement. Her inclusive approach to yoga empowers anyone to practice—regardless of their shape, size, ethnicity, or level of ability.

For my very first episode I got to speak with Accessible Yoga founder, Jivana Heyman. Jivana is the dad of a teenager and a young adult. We cover the whole gamut of his parenting journey thus far: from the early days of having to slow his career to tend to two babies, to the challenges of finding a village as a gay dad, to when his kids were in middle school and he was able to reignite his teaching, to the constant compassion-balance that is parenting teens and young adults.

Other topics we cover:

How to be your own person while also being of service to your children.
The need to make postpartum support networks accessible for all parents.
Parenting is the ultimate karma yoga. Remembering that when our children our teenagers is essential.

Welcome to the Yoga of Parenting podcast! My book, The Yoga of Parenting, came out in June of 2023 through Shambhala Publications.
