Ep. 70: Yoga For Healing While Mothering

Self-care in Black motherhood looks different than it would for other mothers. Charlotte-based yogi, Kelley Carboni-Woods, aka Peace Filled Mama, is an entrepreneur, hair stylist, and yoga teacher who believes in using yoga as a means of claiming freedom and healing from trauma. Kelley is clear that the freedom of her two sons depends, in part, on her ability to heal. Referencing the daily systemic threats and triggers to Black life and Black joy, Kelley's work is fueled by the need for healing, so that she doesn't pass on what generations of trauma have already cost our people, to her sons.
