My Name is Stormy Barbara, and I am a yogi and mindset coach on a mission to radically improve the lives of those around me.

A true Sagittarius soul, I seek to understand the intricacies of the world and aim to teach my students how to do the same. 

The most overwhelming and traumatic moments in my life have shaped me, BUT time and time again, I’ve used my adversity to fuel my strength.

I believe in progress over perfection and know that the best direction to fail is always forward.

I have spent years ruthlessly committed to my mastering my craft. I have undoubtedly made mistakes along the way, but that's what makes me THAT much more equipped to help you- I've been through/seen it all before myself.

I am tirelessly committed to my efforts and have the confidence necessary to lead from the front.

 

I typically like to keep my accomplishments to myself- after all; confidence is silent, insecurity is loud.

Still, after a potential client shared concerns around the value of my services/coaching program due to my perceived lack of "experience"/qualifications, it only seems appropriate to come back and shamelessly share all of the awesome shit I've done.
