Exploring Yoga: Awakening to Love, Presence, and Inner Truth with Kathleen S. McPhillips

In this episode, I sit down with yoga teacher, healer, and author Kathleen McPhillips for a heart-led conversation about what yoga truly is, beyond the poses.

Kathleen shares her lived experience of yoga as a lifelong spiritual practice: a path of breath, awareness, healing, and inner listening that has quite literally saved and transformed her life. Together, we explore yoga as a holistic spiritual tool for life, and why the inward journey is essential not only for personal healing, but for collective awakening.

We talk about breath as medicine, meditation as listening, and how presence, gratitude, and love become daily practices that ripple outward into the world around us. Kathleen also shares her powerful healing journey through cancer and her years of solitary retreat in nature.

Whether you’re new to yoga or have practiced for years, my hope is that this episode gently opens a door that welcomes you home to yourself.
