How to find your own path in life
Behind the podcast: Embodied Business
With Yarrow Magdalena, I spoke about untangling ourselves from the narratives around what success should look like and how we can bring more humanness into how we live, work, and think about our careers.
The Embodied Podcast is supporting people in creating honest, more sustainable, and feminist businesses that redefine success and center community through interviews with like-minded folk, how-to guides, and exploratory shares.
Yarrow Magdalena, the host of the podcast, is a web designer, small business mentor, and tech fairy who helps people start and run small businesses that are fun to work in and make enough money for things that matter.

When Yarrow asked me about how our work and lives have changed due to the pandemic, I also spoke about how we live in a world that holds so many barriers to just being, making it almost impossible to ‘be human’.
