No Expectations
This podcast was born from years of coffee shop discussions on yoga, zen, finding yourself on a spiritual path, and everything beyond. The universe aligned our paths via a yoga studio where Andrew was teaching, and Jen was a new student, just a few short weeks before the world shut down in the wake of covid19. From small group online yoga classes to meeting at parks and outside coffee shops, our student/teacher relationship developed into a friendship that developed into creative collaborators. Our conversations circle around the many aspects of being on a spiritual journey. Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/noexpectationspodcast/support
