You're listening to the Vibrant Happy Women podcast, episode number five.

Self-love is one of the most critical pieces of being human because with self-love comes self-forgiveness,

comes acceptance. And it's only when we can give those gifts to ourselves that we can extend that same kindness to others.

Welcome to the Vibrant Happy Women Podcast, stories of vibrant women living happy lives.

And now your host, Jen Ryday. On our last episode, I chatted with my good friend Stephanie Rogers,

and we learned about how important and helpful it is to find that one thing,

or multiple things, perhaps, that you love to do.

Stephanie loves volunteering at a local halfway house,

and for you it might be creating a business or learning a musical instrument. The sky's the limit.

One thing's certain. Doing something you love makes you so much happier and fulfilled.

Today I'll be talking with Carrie Hensley from Carrie Hensley.com. She's what I would

describe as an earthy, grounded woman. She loves yoga and meditation, as well as motorcycles and

nature. Carrie tells us more about her journey from self-loathing to self-love and how we all can

shift into a place of greater self-love and authenticity.

So with that, let's jump into our interview and I hope you enjoy it.

Welcome to today's episode of Vibrate Happy Women. I am so excited to introduce my guest today,

Carrie Hensley. Carrie describes herself as a survivor. She's been sober for 22 years.

She loves yoga and has been a yoga instructor for 18 years and has created a thriving online

community where she teaches women how to dig deep, to sift through the layers of doubt, fear,

and judgment, and to use powerful tools like yoga to connect to their

inner guru, reclaim their intrinsic worth, and live life on their terms.

She lives with her husband and her son Drew, who is 20.
