Today I sat down with Chelsea Williams Hofer, also known as chelseasyoga in the online world. Chelsea is a Seattle-based yoga instructor and full-time content creator that I’ve been keeping up with for quite some time and finally got to meet in person!
Tune in to dive into Chelsea’s journey with yoga, how social media has shaped her practice, and why morning rituals are a game-changer for self-care. She opens up about the transformative power of yoga, going through a divorce, the beauty of vulnerability, and how she started hosting retreats. We talk about balancing family life with personal fitness goals and creative pursuits.
