On this episode of the podcast, Canmore based yoga teacher, Lydia Zamorano, shares her career path as a yoga teacher. She went from teaching full-time, to owning a yoga studio, to teaching around the world, to being a mom and a yoga teacher, and now to running yoga teacher training programs. Lydia shares how she has changed her path many different times in search of what truly makes her happy within her yoga career. Lydia is living proof that you don’t have to choose one path and stick to it, and that it’s okay to change your direction along the way.
