"I enrolled in Yogi Maha Method training from Germany while I was in the middle of a very painful divorce. I felt lost and unsure of what the future held. I didn’t expect the training to change my life the way it did. It gave me direction, strength, and a new sense of purpose. I graduated with the confidence to start teaching yoga, and now I’m building a whole new chapter for myself. If you’re going through a hard time, I hope my story shows that healing is possible and that it’s never too late to begin again"
