Episode 35 | Gang Violence to Yoga: Following Your Inner Whisper with Rosie Acosta
I had this wake-up moment because I didn’t want to go to jail and I wondered what it would be like to make a different choice.
— Rosie Acosta

Rosie Acosta is a yoga, meditation, and mindfulness teacher, and host of the podcast Radically Loved. Today she shares her healing journey of growing up in east LA surrounded by gang violence, and the choice she made to search for something different than the chaos she’d known. From feeling disembodied, questioning her religion, and disconnecting from her tribe—her story is one of courage and what beautifully results from following the whispers of your inner knowing.
