[Zoom] REAL TALK with Melorie Masacupan & Austin Cuervo

Your monthly safe space to explore, learn and get messy.

Through the lens of yogic principles, we engage with the toughest challenges of our time including racism, gender inequality, LGBTQ+ rights and global health.

Real Talk is about building a community practice for skillful living and social change. This experiential self-study leans on timeless ethics to guide us on a path of embodied allyship and heart-led leadership. It is a program for anyone ready to dive into the inner work for outer change.

Our yearlong discovery will be grounded in suggested readings from ‘The Yamas & Niyamas’ by Deborah Adele. Monthly live discussions will feature a diverse lineup of visionary change-makers. Between gatherings, we get to deepen our study by continuing the conversation and sharing wisdom snacks in a private Facebook group.

We are committed to valuing the lived experiences of BIPOC speakers by getting them paid. Apply to become a guest speaker with options to facilitate discussion and share your story on the ‘Amplifying Progress’ podcast. To honor your time and talent, expect a return on 25% of workshop proceeds. 

The call to respond to systemic injustice has never been clearer.
