Maya Tiwari on Dharma, Power, Writing Books, + Healing
One day a podcast guest form from Maya Tiwari appeared in my inbox. On cue, I jumped up and threw a happy dance, which for me has a lot of butt and wild arms. I’d tried to get Maya Tiwari in the Ayurveda Summit a half a year before, but a death in India kept her away.
At long last, we sat down for a conversation. I had no idea what to expect. On the call we connected deeply and quickly – a sign of a true guru. After 30 minutes of recording I felt I had not just a teacher but also a friend in Maya Tiwari. What a beautiful, evolved human.
Listen.
