Beskrivelse

Morgan O'Hare is a yoga teacher, entrepreneur, and founder of Present Practice, an Austin-based yoga and wellness studio home to one of the most sought-after teacher training programs in the country. What started as a studio has grown into a global community, leading retreats and trainings across 30+ destinations worldwide. Her work bridges ancient wisdom with modern building, helping people connect to purpose, self-trust, and the creative process through the chakra system, karma yoga, and embodied practice. In this episode, Saara and Morgan trace Morgan's path from corporate life to founding her own studio, including what it took to trust herself enough to make that leap. They get into the messiness of creation and how failures are realignments rather than setbacks. They also explore the chakra system as a framework for self-discovery, the shift from feeling like a victim to becoming a creator, and what it actually looks like to bring a vision into form.

SOLO: What Pursuing My Mission Has Taught Me So Far

In this solo episode, Saara shares what she's learned so far in the process of pursuing her mission, from a year of experimenting with different businesses and creative mediums to committing to the podcast as a weekly practice. She talks about the experimentation phase and why it's necessary even when it feels like spinning your wheels, what happens when distractions show up right after clarity, and why consistency with one thing matters more than dabbling in many. She also gets into the balance between self-development work and actually doing the work, educating on your craft, and the best advice she's received on the reality of building.

SOLO: The Shadow Side of Spirituality

In this solo episode, Saara opens up about her personal relationship to spirituality, how it began in childhood darkness, and how it has evolved as she's moved from desperation to discernment. She talks about the shadow side of being a seeker, what happens when spiritual tools become a means of control, and the pattern she's noticed of outsourcing agency to frameworks, teachers, and gurus. She also gets into what she feels is missing from the conversation around aligned action, the gap between intuitive insight and consistent effort, and what she wants Rich Souls to stand for as she continues to build it.

The Finance Guy Who Does Emotional Work with Akash Kanojia

Akash Kanojia is a finance professor at UT Austin, former management consultant, lawyer, and eight years deep in a men's emotional processing group. In this episode, Saara and Akash get into how his career trajectory, from law to consulting to the Federal Reserve to teaching, has always been in pursuit of his innate curiosities. They discuss sunk costs and career transitions, the value of emotional intelligence in leadership, and why most members of his men's group ended up leaving their W-2 jobs. They also explore the creative process, their shared Artist's Way experience, reading as fuel for Akash's creative fire, and what it looks like to build a life learning and communicating what you've learned.

SOLO: What Falling Off My Morning Practice Taught Me

In this solo episode, Saara gets honest about what happened when her morning practices subtly fell away after an intense season of rapid change. She talks about how losing her routine impacted her creative process with the podcast, why the devolvement was so gradual she almost didn't notice, and what getting back on track has looked like this week. She also shares thoughts on information fasts, the timing of when you engage with people versus sitting with your own experience first, and why investing in your connection to yourself might be the most non-negotiable thing there is.

Trusting What You Can't Explain with Lisa Viapiano

Lisa Viapiano is a healer, mentor, and somatic practitioner whose path has wound from sports chiropractic through multiple modalities of healing into the channeling work she does today. In this episode, Saara and Lisa talk about what it actually looks like to trust experiences that your rational mind wants to dismiss, why divine timing is about alignment rather than time, and what surrender feels like when you stop trying to think your way into it. They also get into the distortion showing up in spiritual communities right now, building trust with your own intuition, and the difference between seeking and actually landing in yourself.
