In this episode, Harriet is joined by Sarah Leyla Puello, a recovering academic who was born in the Dominican Republic and has been living in the UK since 2003. These days, Sarah most likes to describe herself as a movement lover, a creative writer and a grace seeker. She works as a project manager, yoga teacher, teacher trainer (for Nourish!) and has recently co-started a new venture called Our Sparkle Club, a virtual space that blends together Yoga, Meditation and Creative Practices like journaling and doodling to help people find and keep their sparkle.

Sarah loves the potential for creativity, connection and support that yoga offers and she shares the practice in the belief that by giving the body the space, the breath and the time to express itself in an intentional and honest way, practitioners can begin to piece together the stories of who they have been, who they are really, and how to live better in this world.

She loves dancing, naps and the sight of palm trees moving against the breeze. Her dream is to someday publish a book, to go back to live in a country where the sun shines all year round and to turn Our Sparkle Club into a social venture that offers community to people from vulnerable backgrounds.

Harriet and Sarah talked about how yoga teachers communicate, grace, and creative practice.
