On Friday June 25th we were honored to host a live conversation with popular author, yoga teacher, and public speaker Jennifer Pastiloff.  

Jen joined us for a funny, down-to-earth conversation about writing, being human, healing, yoga, and more with studio BE Senior Facilitator Joe Longo.

In case you missed the live interview, you can watch the whole thing below.

(Heads up: this conversation features a smattering of adult language. Bring your sense of humor.)

Jen Pastiloff travels the world with her unique workshop “On Being Human,” a hybrid of yoga related movement, writing, sharing out loud, letting the snot fly, and the occasional dance party. Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild, calls Jen “a conduit of awakenings.”

Jen has been featured on Good Morning America, New York Magazine, Health Magazine, CBS News and more for her unique style of teaching, which she has taught to thousands of women in sold-out workshops all over the world. Bring a journal, an open heart and the willingness to grow open and stronger for her workshops.

She is also the founder of the online magazine The Manifest-Station. Jen leads annual retreats to Italy and France and she is the guest speaker at Canyon Ranch and Miraval Resorts a couple times each year. She also leads Writing and The Body workshops with author Lidia Yuknavitch. Jen also offers scholarships to a woman who has lost a child through The Aleksander Fund. Read about it here.


When she is not traveling, Jen is based in Los Angeles with her husband and son and a cup of coffee. Her memoir On Being Human was published by Dutton Books in June 2019. She has created a massive online following from her personal essays and teachings.
