Most of us can identify at least one monumental experience (either voluntary or forced) that was the catalyst for a major life change. I attribute my spiritual growth, and finally connecting to my life's path and purpose, to the 2-year work-related stint I did in the remote Yupik village of Kotlik, Alaska. It's where I took up yoga, started to hear my inner voice, learned what I could live with and without, and found the courage to not lose my sh*t within a culture and environment so different than big city life in Miami. It took being dropped off in a bush plane, and moving to the middle of nowhere with no roads, cars, restaurants, or entertainment venues.In this episode of Coffee with the Universe, I talk about my experience in the frozen tundra, the soul-lessons I learned, and how sometimes it takes separating yourself from the noise of the world to find yourself.
