Ep 48 - Yoga School Owner, Mother and Fitness Instructor - Amèlia Valls

After spending 18 days doing my Yoga Teacher Training at Nydum this January in Spain, I was very fortunate to sit down with the founder and owner Amèlia Valls. Amèlia's journey as a teacher started 20 years ago, having been trained in Pilates, Fitness and Personal Training, working with a diverse range of people and communities. She has a degree in Exercise and Sport Sciences and has completed her 500 hrs Yoga Teacher Training at Kranti Yoga, Goa, India. Initially, it was to complement her field of work and studies, and has developed into a business training Yoga Teachers over the last number of years. In this conversation, we explore Amèlia's passion for teaching, the journey of founding her Yoga School and how she has learnt to balance running a business with motherhood. Amèlia shares the joy she gets from spreading the knowledge and wisdom of Yoga and mixing that with her passion for movement and the human anatomy. I loved learning more about her journey, especially after experiencing her teaching first-hand.

Ep 47 - Mini Episode - "The Questions that we Ask ourselves"

Have a listen back to our conversation from one of our previous episodes: What's the relationship between the quality of the questions that we ask ourselves, and the quality of the answers we get? How are the narratives that we tell ourselves related to our overall wellbeing and success? These are some of the questions that we explore on this week's episode. I get to ask Dad some of the tools he's used over the years, both with himself and for his clients. We talk about incremental personal changes, fresh perspectives on old challenges and renewed vigour in approaching life. Through our work with people and companies, we're privileged to be able to sit with many different people, from all walks of life, generally through the prism of helping them in their business. Here are some of the insights and questions that have helped us and our clients over the years. As always, thanks for Fad Saoil Saunas for making this episode possible and for supporting us on our podcast journey! https://fadsaoilsaunas.ie/ [https://fadsaoilsaunas.ie/] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

ep 46 - Mini episode - Non-Profit Founder - Lia Wyler

n this short clip from a previuos episode - Get a glimpse int a conversation from the garden of our guest house in Kathmandu, Nepal we spoke with the founders of 2 non-profits. Their work impacts many children and families in Nepal. We hear from Lia Wyler and how she came to found Rokpa.org and in turn, how she met RamHari when he was a young boy living on the streets of Kathmandu.  She took RamHari in, after much consideration and RamHari went on to get an education and found his own Non-Profit, Indreni.org Both Lia and RamHari are passionate about providing shelter and education to children in Nepal. Their organisations have impacted thousands of children and it was so inspiring to hear their story.  We’ve been helping raise money for Indreni.org for a number of years and it was so inspiring and touching to hear how RamHari met Lia and started his journey to his work with Indreni.org I got a lot from this conversation, in terms of being passionate about a vision and mission, while also the power of small actions with big results.  Check us out at essentialtraining.ie, Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/essentialtraining [https://www.instagram.com/essentialtraining?igsh=MTNpMHlza2t0MTQwZg%3D%3D&utm_source=qr] Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/essential-training/ [https://www.linkedin.com/company/essential-training/] Thanks to our sponsors Fad Saoil Saunas! https://fadsaoilsaunas.ie/ [https://fadsaoilsaunas.ie/] We hope you enjoyed!
