the yoga of numbers: 3 steps when metrics don’t match your vision

This episode feels like a confession of how yoga and my relationship to numbers go together: social media numbers, financial numbers.. All of it. The yoga of numbers episode is a 3rd path, that doesn’t involve falling prey or victim to numbers, but rather facing them with awareness. Where we don’t numbly consider the numbers without considering the names, but you are also dreaming of sharing your message with the world.
