Unplugging To Find Your True Self | FlowCast #37 with Irèni Stamou
In this fascinating conversation, we had the privilege to sit down to talk with Irèni Stamou, a professional dancer and choreographer who has taken what she learned from 15 years in the profession and translated it into an incredible career in wellness and bodywork. There's not a lot of banter or back and forth in this conversation because Irèni's story flows all on its own. There's so much to learn from Irèni and we certainly couldn't fit in all into one episode, so she will be back again. Let's dive in!
