In this episode of The Funny Thing About Yoga, Giana and Bradshaw take a nostalgic trip down memory lane, reflecting on their early days as yoga teachers. They kick things off with casual banter about dating apps, mispronunciations, and whether anyone else in the world is named Bradshaw. From there, they veer into wild tangents that have absolutely nothing to do with yoga—but you'll want to stick around for the laughs.


When they finally get serious, Giana and Bradshaw share their vastly different experiences as new teachers: Bradshaw’s delusional confidence versus Giana’s crippling imposter syndrome and fear of teaching. They open up about when they finally started to feel like real teachers, what helped them grow, and how they built confidence. From entertaining stories about teaching older students to the prophetic advice Bradshaw gave Giana early on, they dive deep into the journey of becoming a teacher. They also cover creating boundaries, learning on the job, overcoming perfectionism, and so much more—including a hilarious bit about handstands and getting feedback.
