What happens when yoga philosophy becomes a living, breathing part of your life—and your business?

In this episode, I sit down with Carla Cline Thomas, a graduate of the Uplifted™ 300-hour teacher training, to explore the Koshas—the five subtle layers of being—and how they influence everything from energy management to authentic leadership. Carla shares her journey of working with the Koshas to find deeper alignment, both on and off the mat, and how this wisdom has transformed her approach to business coaching.

Here's what we cover:

🔹 How the Koshas can guide personal and professional evolution

🔹 Why prana isn't just breath, but your relationship to vitality

🔹 The connection between energy management and financial integrity

🔹 How Carla integrates yogic wisdom into her business coaching

🔹 Why creating nervous system safety is the key to sustainable transformation

Whether you're on your own teacher training path or looking to live your yoga more fully, this episode offers both inspiration and actionable insights.
