Some people don't just survive grief — they let it crack them wide open. 💙
In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with Rebecca "Becks" Davis (@kulaspringsyoga) — yoga teacher, philosophy guide, and mother — who has navigated the unimaginable not once, but twice. Becks lost her daughter Madalyn in 2020 and then her husband Olly suddenly this past February, and joins us from Bali where she's raising her two adult children, Annie and Mitch, by living life fully and refusing to "marinate" in the pain.
Becks shares the wisdom that's carried her through: how a "dark night of the soul" fifteen years ago quietly prepared her for what was to come, why grief is a silent passenger we learn to walk beside, and how loss can become a blank canvas if we let fear soften into excitement.
We talk butterflies and bluebirds, the ancient yogic teaching of Chittavritti (and how resisting "what is" creates our suffering), the modern pandemic of burnt-out women, and the difference between honoring our grief and getting stuck in it.
This one is raw, hopeful, and full of practical tools for anyone walking through the dark — and looking for that first glimmer of light. 🌙
In this episode: – The "dark night of the soul" and how loss prepares us – Grief as a silent passenger: feeling it without drowning in it – The blank canvas: choosing life after "my life is over" – Signs from the other side — butterflies, bluebirds & undeniable moments – Chittavritti: the yogic key to suffering & peace – Masculine & feminine energy, burnout, and coming home to yourself – Becks's biggest aha: welcoming the darkness and the light, without guilt
💙 Dedicated to McKel, Madalyn, and Olly
