    Show notes

    Michael and Taimane share stories from their teenage years and talk about moments in their lives that have impacted their music. Whether delicately finger-picking through Bach or radically ripping through Led Zeppelin, Taimane has the ability to morph genres – from classical to rock to flamenco – and stretch her instrument far beyond the familiar melodies of Hawaii, where she grew up and began playing the ukulele at age five.

    10. Gina Caputo on Yoga as Medicine Jun 23, 2020
    Show notes

    Professional yoga and meditation teacher Gina Caputo talks with Michael about yoga and how it can be translated into everyday life as a tool of awareness.
    In all the work she does, what is most important to Gina is seeing you in your wholeness to be the best guide she can be. Accessibility, authenticity, inclusivity and integrity are what Gina stands for. She embraces a “sincere, not serious” approach to her work, because the evolutionary journey of being human is tough... and if we don’t leaven spiritual gravitas with a little humor, we’ll be left eating a very dry bread of life!
