Episode 20: zumba, healing your body, and trusting yourself with josette tkacik

As Josette hilariously shares, there’s nothing in life that a good booty shake can’t take care of (Amen to that). Josette Tkacik is a Zumba Fitness Hero who leads weekly classes in downtown Santa Barbara at the Historic Carrillo Ballroom. She is known as the world’s (!!!) most successful Zumba Instructor and leads the most well-attended Zumba class. 

Josette is the #1 author on DailyOm and an advisory board member for the Women in Leadership Program at UCSB. She has been named a Local Hero by the City of Santa Barbara and was the recipient of a Congressional Honor for Leadership in health and wellness.

Considered a medical miracle, Josette was able to self heal and reverse a severe autoimmune disease, advanced rheumatoid arthritis. In today’s episode, we discuss following your heart, overcoming extreme challenges, and the power of dance.
