Kelley Palmer, also known on Instagram as the @peacefilledmama is a coach, writer, wellness advocate and community organizer committed to using the tools and philosophies of yoga to cultivate liberation, joy and peace for herself and others.

We talk about her commitment to breaking old generational patterns, her liberatory approach to life, discipline and parenting, and how she manages the opinions and expectations of others along the journey. I found Kelley’s approach so refreshing and yet reassuring, I’m sure you will too.
