Episode 87: Rebecca Spencer

January 10, 2023January 11, 2023 by Rachel Caldwell

Our guest today is one of my dear friends from college, Rebecca Spencer. She is a dance educator and yoga instructor living in the Pacific Northwest. Rebecca recently started her own yoga business called Abiding Place Yoga. In today’s episode we talk about Rebecca’s background as a dancer, performer, and teacher. Then, we dive into the topic of health and wellness. So often our identity can become wrapped up in our ability (especially as dancers) and in our health. Rebecca opens up about her journey dealing with health struggles during pregnancy. I’m so grateful for Rebecca sharing her story, because I think it’s going to resonate with you as you listen.

One of my favorite things Rebecca shares is that just because you can do all the things, doesn’t mean you should do all the things right now. And that it’s okay to adjust in life based on the season. I came away from our conversation feeling encouraged and reminded that there is permission to slow down, rest, and recognize the season I’m living in. I hope this conversation does the same for you!
