Welcome back to another episode of the Therapy for Black Girls January Jumpstart mini-series. All month long we will host conversations with talented Black women leaders across creative and professional mediums to assist you in putting the “P” in prioritizing your personal growth. If you’ve been holding back on doing you, THIS is your sign to jump head first into the possibilities of a New Year.  Joining me for today’s conversation is yoga instructor and wellness advocate Austin Maddox. Austin's yoga journey began 16 years ago and has since expanded into a multi-faceted wellness program. During our conversation today, Austin shares how to develop a yoga practice that works for your personal needs, her favorite yoga poses for a mental health release, and where beginner yogis can look for cost-effective resources and classes. About the Podcast The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.
