Coffee with the Universe with Lore Goldstein: Be Calm, Collected, and Confident Every Day: Soul lessons learned from working in an Alaskan Yupik village, in the middle of nowhere.

Most of us can identify at least one monumental experience (either voluntary or forced) that was the catalyst for a major life change. I attribute my spiritual growth, and finally connecting to my life's path and purpose, to the 2-year work-related stint I did in the remote Yupik village of Kotlik, Alaska. It's where I took up yoga, started to hear my inner voice, learned what I could live with and without, and found the courage to not lose my sh*t within a culture and environment so different than big city life in Miami. It took being dropped off in a bush plane, and moving to the middle of nowhere with no roads, cars, restaurants, or entertainment venues.

In this episode of Coffee with the Universe, I talk about my experience in the frozen tundra, the soul-lessons I learned, and how sometimes it takes separating yourself from the noise of the world to find yourself.
