Living Your Yoga - embodied wisdom with Shirlee Williams
This isn’t your average yoga podcast.
Living Your Yoga – Embodied Wisdom is where real life meets real practice—no filter, no fluff, no forced enlightenment.
I’m Shirlee—yoga teacher, breathwork facilitator, and mentor to yoga teachers who are done with performance and ready to show up as their whole, messy, magical selves.
Each week, we explore how yoga lives beyond the mat—through stories, soul talk, deep breaths, and occasional sass. From parenting and partnership to pigeon pose and panic attacks, this podcast is about the real practice: how we show up when life gets loud, uncertain, or beautifully ordinary.
Expect a little wisdom, a little humor, and a whole lot of heart.
Whether you’re a longtime yogi or yoga-curious human just trying to make it through Monday, you’re welcome here.
Take a breath. Let’s begin.
Living Your Yoga - embodied wisdom with Shirlee Williams
113. Evolving from Heartache with Tosca Reno
My guest today is Tosca Reno.
Multiple challenges have beset Tosca's life, but it’s also a testament to the value of resilience and the rewards you can achieve with hard work and determination.
After Tosca lost both her late husband and stepson subsequently, and amid despair, she turned to yoga, spirituality, healing weekends, plant medicine, and writing workshops to rebuild her life. Through this journey, Tosca discovered the Three E’s of Wellness, explored the depths of her resilience, and undertook a new commitment to model it for women everywhere.
This process of rebirth provided a new foundation for Tosca's career. Today, she is dedicated to sharing her knowledge and experiences to help others on their path to healing and personal growth.
In today's conversation, we talk all about staying away from numbing experiences when facing trauma, why we require the contrast of happiness and sorrow, life lessons that happen FOR us and not TO us, letting go of the victim role, and so much more. Tune into today's episode!
