I am so excited to be here with Brant Williams. He is an actor, trained yoga teacher and dedicated yoga student. Brant and I are on an epic journey with Yoga Journal and the 2017 Live Be Yoga Tour. We’re going to 22 cities to experience unique yoga cultures around the nation and we are so thrilled.   We share what it’s been like on the Live Be Yoga Tour so far and what we’re most excited about. You’ll get a behind the scenes look at our journey on the Tour and the fun story of how Brant met his special someone. Brant shares his thoughts on hitting reset, creating deep relationships, and unplugging.   Radically Intrepid Brant   Earning a degree in Musical Theater and moving to NYC Becoming a yoga teacher and giving it up to be a student Being a part of a yoga class at a high school in Manhattan   Radically Inspired Clarity   Even if you begin your relationship on Tinder or online, taking the time to meet in person with eye contact is paramount to a lasting relationship. Taking that time to unplug and go inside helps unblock things and helps things run smoother.   Brant Williams Answers…   What is your number one reset when you get overwhelmed? How do we create meaningful relationships in the digital age? What has been your most profound finding about yourself?   Radically Loved Quotes   “Not only can we explore the different yoga cultures within each city, but within the United States.”   “We all come to practice for different reasons, but at the end of the day, isn’t it to just come back to who we are?”   “It doesn’t matter how independent you are, there still needs to be that touch and connection.”   “Don’t be scared to dream big.”   A Little More About Our Guest Brant grew up in Canyon City, Colorado with his younger sister. The most inspiring person in his life was his mother, she worked hard waiting tables and going to college as she raised two kids. As a child, he wanted to be a search and rescue for the Coast Guard but years later would discover he had a hidden talent for acting and singing. With new aspirations of pursuing musical theatre, he went to the University of Northern Colorado to become a singer and actor. After graduating from UNC, Brant moved to New York City for a few years before packing up the U-Haul to make the big move to Los Angeles. An avid yoga practitioner through his college years, Brant wanted to dive deeper into his practice amid the transition to the West Coast. He completed his first Yoga Teacher Training with CorePower in Los Angeles and began teaching soon after. Connect with Brant on Instagram and www.orderfirepickup.com.
