Stephanie Paolini is the reason "Seacoast Stories" exists.

Without her, host Troy Farkas never would have planted roots on the Seacoast.

And today (finally), the owner of 3 Bridges Yoga (Portsmouth) finally makes her long-awaited debut on the 100th EPISODE OF THE PODCAST 🎉

From the West End of Portsmouth, Stephanie and Troy discuss the origin story of their very special relationship. Then, they talk about Stephanie's seemingly "perfect" life, despite the negative self-talk she still deals with every day. Then, the two talk about LUTU - Stephanie's small plan for creating massive change on the Seacoast and beyond.

After that, Stephanie talks about some big recent changes to 3 Bridges Yoga, how technology is negatively impacting yoga classes and our ability to stay present, Stephanie's recent one-year marriage anniversary, and more.

Plus, what yoga can teach us about taking a pause before taking action, and how the practice can help us keep an open mind when we disagree with others.
