Summary

Meet my friend Rosie Acosta, a beautiful and inspiring light in our wellness community. Rosie and I met years back on her podcast "Radically Loved", she was the only podcast host who went out, purchased my books and shared them with her audience; with love and devotion to her listeners - I saw this and I never forgot. Rosie and I also have this incredible sense of HUMOR together -- we laugh about everything -- we make fun of a lottt -- and we keep it 100% real. We have real followers, we practice what we preach, we are both accredited in our fields of chosen work and we both have a deep love for serving those who are in need (Veterans, homeless, low-income, broken, depressed) which is why she is a sister to my spirit and soul- on Episode 89 please learn from Rosie on her rocky, inspiring and dangerous journey, as a Hispanic-American to "Radically Loved" as we share her new book and Rosie's heart on the Wabi Sabi Podcast! Thank you Rosie! xx More on Rosie: Check out her new book: Radically Loved out, now! Rosie Acosta has studied yoga and mindfulness for more than 20 years and taught for over a decade.

She works with a wide range of students, from those in her East Los Angeles community to Olympic athletes, NFL champions, NBA All-Stars and veterans of war. A first-gen Mexican-American, Rosie’s mission is to help others overcome adversity and experience radical love. She’s been featured in Yoga Journal, Well + Good, Forbes, The New York Post.

0:00.0	My friend Rosie Acosta joins us today to talk about her new book, You Are Radically
0:09.4	Loved. Growing up Mexican-American during the LA riots of 1992, Rosie found herself lost in a sea
0:18.5	of bewilderment, gang violence, and maybe even hopelessness.
0:23.9	So Rosie came to chat with us today on the Wabi Sabi podcast to share more about her story

1:13.0	Like real friends.

1:15.2	People like that term these days.
1:17.7	And we had this deep combo about how the book publishing process has become so impersonal.
