Guest Episode!
Today Jessica King interviews Michelle Crittendon. Michelle is a wife, mother, and yoga teacher in Wilmington, NC. Today Michelle tells us about her yoga journey while also navigating the craziness of motherhood and business. She also shows up with us today to speak a little about the intersection of wellness with mental health and how radical acceptance has helped her to step up authentically to show up for herself and be well. Among other things, Michelle discusses the importance of seeking qualified professionals when dealing with mental health issues, the mindset she employs to navigate challenges, and what showing up for herself means. She so beautifully states, "We are often searching outside of ourselves for the next (thing), but the truth is that we are already whole and it is just turning back towards ourselves [that is needed]."
