On The Mat With Mari: Inspired By Two Emily's

Last week, I was inspired by two amazing women;both of whom happen to be named "Emily"...

One of my favorite things to do while commuting around is to listen to podcasts and one of my "go
to" podcasts is Emily Duncan's EmBody Radio. On episode 37, she had Tanya Zuckerbrot as the guest, Tanya created the F Factor Diet. It was a really great interview but one thing stuck with me. Emily asked Tanya what she wanted people to take away from the podcast and one of the things that she mentioned was this quote "Rejection is God's Protection." The minute that I heard this, it reminded me of what Mokshapriya would always say which is when you pray for something, you should always say "I want it to be for my highest good and the highest good of all those involved". So if you pray for something and don't get it, it's okay because the Universe is just protecting you for something better to come along.

This brings me to my second Emily, Emily Hayden to be exact. Have you ever met someone and were instantly inspired by them? That's Emily.

I watch Emily's youtube videos while I spin in the morning and she always motivates me to make the best out of the rest of my day. One of the reasons that I gravitate to her is because she shares her highlights as well as her struggles which makes her relatable and in my opinion likeable.

Last week I stepped out of my comfort zone and I almost didn't want to share it because one, I thought that I would jinx it and two, what if it didn't turn out as I hoped. But these two ladies inspired me to be more vulnerable, watch the video below to hear all about it!
