Today, I interview DevSuroop Kaur, who grew up as the youngest of three sisters in a family where she often felt muted and silenced. As a young adult, she searched for herself through diverse experiences, including working in Alaska, battling addiction, and struggling with a fear of speaking that kept her from fully expressing who she was.
Her turning point came in her early twenties when she discovered Kundalini Yoga through the Western Sikh community. Fully immersing herself in the structured spiritual practices, she became a yoga teacher, a chant leader, and an active member of the community. Music and Naad Yoga gave her a sense of grounding and connection to her voice. However, decades later, she faced a crisis of conscience and chose to leave the community, freeing herself to reclaim her authentic voice.
Now, DevSuroop helps others empower their voices by drawing on her rich experiences in yoga, music, and leadership. She empowers her clients to express themselves with confidence and live in alignment with their true purpose.
