Today’s interview guest has possibly the most colourful story we’ve heard on the podcast so far.
She’s Annika Saigi, owner of a busy network of yoga studios in Western Sydney called Nin Yoga – and her journey has been a bit like a roller coaster ride in a theme park. It started at a video game arcade, with a detour into the circus arts, adventures in India, and – just as she was launching a yoga studio – there was that painful COVID pandemic.
Thankfully, Annika has lived to tell the tale and in our interview she shared some of her amazing transformation from a young Video Game arcade manager, into a successful business woman.
