Melissa Billington is a talented yoga teacher, creatrix, inspiratrice, and also a dear friend of mine.
Born in Virginia, Melissa is the 13th lineal descendant of Pocahontas and she shares how she has worked to transmute her family’s ancestral trauma into healing. We also explore why and how Melissa has chosen to take her yoga off the mat and more widely into the world, particularly through water walks, praying for the water, and stand-up comedy.
Oh, and make sure you stick around until the end for a bonus performance from Melissa!
