  <description>Join us on "Fishing Without Bait," hosted by Jim Ellermeyer, as we delve into the inspiring journey of Jenni Crumpton Ross, President and CEO of Kula for Karma, and her transformative work in the realms of trauma, addiction, and mental health recovery through yoga and mindfulness. This episode is a profound exploration of Jenni's path from a restrictive religious upbringing in Birmingham, Alabama, to becoming a beacon of healing and advocacy in marginalized communities.
Raised in a rigid evangelical environment, Jenni shares the personal challenges and pivotal moments that led her to relocate to New York City, ultimately pursuing a career that harmonizes spirituality with social justice. After a transformative experience in advertising and the corporate world, Jenni's quest for deeper understanding propelled her into seminary at Union Theological Seminary, where she studied interfaith social justice and political science.
Discover how Jenni's personal struggles with complex PTSD and her discovery of yoga and mindfulness as powerful tools for her own healing inspired her to assist others facing similar challenges. Learn about her journey through yoga teacher training during the COVID-19 pandemic, which connected her with Kula for Karma, an organization dedicated to integrating yoga and mindfulness to support those dealing with trauma and mental health issues.
Jenni also discusses her book "Femi-Evangelical," where she critiques the religious doctrines that shaped her early life and advocates for a reclamation of faith grounded in justice, equality, and personal empowerment, especially for women.
This enlightening conversation not only sheds light on Jenni's impactful work and personal growth but also offers valuable insights into the healing power of integrating mind, body, and spirit practices into recovery and wellness frameworks.

This conversation dives deep into Mike's personal journey of estrangement, self-discovery, and the subsequent wisdom he has gleaned from facing life's harsh realities head-on.
Key Discussion Points:
Estrangement and Self-Assertion: Mike opens up about his six-and-a-half-year journey of estrangement, prompted by standing up for himself and his family. This pivotal moment led him to confront inherited traits and beliefs, sparking a transformative self-reflection process.

Navigating Life's Inequities: Mike and Jim discuss the futility of clinging to the concept of fairness in life. Emphasizing resilience, they explore the importance of reacting to life's challenges constructively, rather than being ensnared by the illusion of fairness.
The Essence of Being: Touching on philosophical underpinnings, Mike shares his belief in the spiritual nature of human existence, advocating for a perspective that embraces life's absurdities and the inherent unpredictability of our experiences.
Wisdom Through Adversity: Mike attributes his depth of understanding and empathy to the diverse and often painful experiences he has endured, highlighting the transformative power of navigating through darkness to find light.
Realism and Dreaming: The dialogue underscores the balance between harboring big dreams and maintaining a realistic approach to achieving them, emphasizing the significance of imaginative thought in human progress while advocating for grounded action.
Empathy, Healing, and Service: Mike's dedication to assisting others in overcoming mental health struggles, particularly anxiety and depression, is born from his personal battles. His approach is deeply rooted in empathy, understanding, and the desire to guide others towards healing and self-empowerment.
Selective Engagement for Impact: Mike discusses his selective approach to coaching, choosing to work only with those ready to engage in transformative work, ensuring that his efforts are directed towards meaningful and effective change.
