Ep 15: Why dopamine became her drug of choice with Pixie Acia, SoulCycle Master Instructor and Founder of Surf Sweat Serve
Description
My guest in this episode is Pixie Acia, Soul Cycle Master Instructor, a certified fitness and yoga instructor and the Founder of retreat Surf Sweat Serve. I met Pixie at one of her retreats in El Salvador in 2019 and have always been inspired by her unique ability to tell stories and to empathize. As a believer in the power of movement to transform, Pixie uses fitness to inspire and cultivate community everyday
During our conversation, we talk about how she stays motivated as a fitness instructor, why community is the new currency, how she inspired Soulcycle to stop selling plastic water bottles and much more!
Caveat: Certain parts of the podcast are a little laggy due to bad connection! Also, we may have gotten too excited to talk to each other that we’ve overlapped during certain parts of the conversation, regardless, you will definitely still be inspired by Pixie’s magic.
Here is a summary of our conversation:
- Why dopamine became her drug of choice
- Staying motivated as a fitness instructor
- The importance of malleability and adaptability
- Confronting trauma and shame from her past
- Holding space and cultivating community as a fitness instructor
- The Little Boy and the Starfish: How small things accumulate
