Moms, Mats and Manuscripts
Moms, Mats and Manuscripts is a podcast hosted by Ivna, a PhD student in biomedicine, a yoga teacher and a mom, and Ksenia a former molecular biologist, a yoga teacher for scientists and a mom, too. This is a space to talk about all things academia, motherhood and yoga with humour and vulnerability.
We chat about mental health in academia, mindful productivity, and surviving and enjoying early motherhood while bringing yoga wisdom into our lives, share our stories and offer tips on navigating life's chaotic adventures.
Moms, Mats and Manuscripts
E1 - How it started
Welcome to the first episode of the Moms, Mats and Manuscripts podcast! Get to know the hosts as we introduce ourselves and talk about our formal academic paths, some challenges we encountered along the way, how yoga helped us overcome (or at least become more aware of) them, and where we are now on our journeys. In this episode, we also share a serendipitous story of how this podcast was born out of a series of Instagram Lives filled with technical glitches and jokes about how "we should have a podcast one day". So grab yourself a cup of coffee, get comfortable and enjoy the conversation that sets the stage for many more to come!
Don't forget to like, follow, and share our podcast! We'd love to hear your thoughts and questions, and if you have ideas for future episodes, drop us a line.
