Ep. 195 Beyond the Ayurveda Checklist with Jackie DeConti

This is a picture of Katie Silcox and Jackie DeConti. It links to an episode of the Spirit Sessions podcast called, "Beyond the Ayurveda Checklist with Jackie DeConti

In this special episode, the tables have turned! Katie is interviewed by Ayurvedic Health Coach and Shakti School alum, Jackie DeConti, about her unique approach to healing and Ayurveda.
