"Come on, we just show up in this body one day, and since we remember, they told us that we were born. But we didn't even know if we were born; we can disappear at any time."
In this episode of KohPhanCast, I have a conversation with my good friend Rakel Lopez, a remarkable woman who has created yoga schools around the world and authored 'Tales for Your Inner Child.'
Her insights on vulnerability, authenticity, and the importance of community and self exploration.
Rakel and I explore the idea that we are all more than our achievements.
We are complex beings with stories to tell, and it's essential to embrace our full selves, including our shadows.
The journey of self-discovery is ongoing, and it's okay to feel lost sometimes.
We discuss how to navigate through life's challenges and the importance of self-compassion.
Join us as we share our experiences, insights, and the magic of alchemy in transforming our lives. Let's connect, reflect, and grow together. Thank you for being part of this journey. Please like, share, and subscribe to the channel.
