#142 - Shawna Krueger - Can Yoga Really Change the World?

Shawna Krueger joins me this week; host of the Leadership and Yoga podcast, bilingual yoga teacher, writer and practitioner of Progressive Ashtanga and Rocket.

We talk about whether yoga really can change the world, why meditation doesn’t necessarily make someone a better leader, and what the yoga industry could learn from the very corporate world it often likes to criticise.

We also explore authenticity, finding your teaching voice, social media, AI-generated content, ambition, comparison and the danger of turning yourself into a character simply because that version gets more likes.

A thoughtful conversation about leadership, creativity and the difference between knowing yoga and actually living it. @shawnakru

“I still believe yoga can change the world. I just don’t think meditation automatically makes someone a better person.”

About the Podcast

Honestly Unbalanced
For curious minds who’d rather have real conversations than perfect answers.
Adam Husler cuts through the curated calm of wellness culture to explore what finding a grounded, balanced life really looks like — messy, moving, and unmistakably human, with clarity that’s always hard-earned.
Adam speaks with people who’ve dedicated their lives to helping others live better — yoga experts, founders, meditators, athletes, deep thinkers, and friends with great stories — uncovering the tools, lessons, and ideas that genuinely help us grow.
Each episode offers honest insight and practical takeaways to help you live with more awareness, integrity, and ease — even when life feels anything but balanced.
For the curious, the questioning, and anyone tired of surface-level self-help — welcome to the conversation.
