Episode 40 : The Brovember Marathon
"Brovember". It's a thing. And I didn't make it up.
There are a lot of connotations with Brovember. One being that guys grow their facial hair to raise awareness and funds to support prostate cancer research. And another denotes a month dedicated to "guys doing guy things like football, hunting, fishing, grilling...and doing yoga..." that's right. It should be on there! And in honor of Brovember, I am hosting a Brovember marathon this week to raise awareness of how yoga benefits fellas!!
Today, I will introduce you to a few guys I have had the honor of doing yoga with and then each subsequent day this week I will include the full interview with each one as part of "The Brovember Marathon" so you get all the incredible insights they have to share from their life experiences! 4 different decades, 4 different reasons why they started doing yoga and 4 different perspectives on why they keep doing it. Share it will all the bro's you know this Brovember!!
Meet...
Owen, a 40 something computer aided drafting manager, who grew up in a small town hunting, fishing, hiking and playing a lot of sports until his back issues started to slow him down.
Jack, a 50 something analyst, who also grew up in a small town riding dirt bikes, playing sports and never heard about yoga until he was on a 100 mile bike ride with a bunch of guys after college.
Jeff, a 60 something small business owner, who grew up outside of Chicago and thought yoga was way too hippie dippie for him to ever try until he decided that taking his active physical regime to the next level needed to include dipping his toe in to try out something he never thought he would.
Wyatt, a 20 something yoga instructor, who decided to follow in his mom's footsteps and teach after a life changing experience at a meditation retreat. He's run his own studio and traveled to other countries teaching yoga.
