Why We Fall Off - And How to Come Back for Good

Is the all-or-nothing energy that's making you excellent at work also sabotaging your wellness practice?

In this solo episode, Vanisha Weatherspoon — corporate attorney, 500-hour RYT, and host of The Legal Yogi Podcast — closes the reset arc with what she calls the most important conversation of the three. The meditation got you still. The 108 sun salutations brought your body back. But what happens next Monday, when the inbox shows up and the reset starts to slip? Vanisha gets real about the shame spiral that keeps high-achievers from returning to their practices, calls out the all-or-nothing thinking we carry from the boardroom onto the mat, and delivers a five-part framework — plus a three-step reset protocol — for building habits that actually hold. "It's not the falling off that keeps us stuck. It's the meaning we make of the falling off."
