Around the South Side

Episode 007 - Around the South Side Blythe Potter - Bargersville Wellness Look up “force of nature” in the dictionary, and you might see a picture of Blythe Potter. Not only is she co-founder of a female-led, military-led salon called Bargersville Wellness, but she is also working for change via local politics. It’s all an effort to make the local community a more loving, diverse, inclusive, and equitable place for all people. In this conversation, we talk about breathing and yoga, self care essentials [and how to get started], and even the affect business can have on politics on society. It’s an impactful but accessible conversation, and I think you’ll love it like I did.   SHOW NOTES What a great name [2:40] A guided breathing technique, alternate nostril breathing [3:30] Breathing for life [6:20] How Bargersville Wellness came to be [6:55] Services offered by Bargersville Wellness [8:45] The combination of hair care and yoga [10:00] Men in yoga, or not [10:20] Haircuts as self care [11:15] Taking your self-care journey one step at a time [12:30] How to return to the present moment [15:15] Bathroom break [16:15] Business is political [16:40] Taking a stand [18:35] The Joy of Canvassing [19:45] Talking face to face with people you disagree with [20:20] What Blythe would like to see in Bargersville [21:40] Do or die time [24:30]   SHOW LINKS Bargersville Wellness: https://bargersvillewellness.com/ Blythe Potter: https://bargersvillewellness.com/blythe#blythe.0 Blythe For Bargersville: https://blythepotter.com/ Harry Potter: https://www.wizardingworld.com/ Bargersville: https://bargersville.in.gov/ Balayage: https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=556946280&q=balayage&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiq1ZyEu92AAxU9IjQIHdv4C-QQ0pQJegQIDBAB&biw=1468&bih=786&dpr=2 Ombre: https://www.google.com/search?q=ombre+hair&tbm=isch&ved=2ahUKEwiWzbOGu92AAxWTPt4AHcXvA6oQ2-cCegQIABAA&oq=omb&gs_lcp=CgNpbWcQARgAMgoIABCKBRCxAxBDMggIABCABBCxAzIKCAAQigUQsQMQQzIKCAAQigUQsQMQQzIKCAAQigUQsQMQQzIKCAAQigUQsQMQQzIHCAAQigUQQzIKCAAQigUQsQMQQzIHCAAQigUQQzIICAAQgAQQsQM6BQgAEIAEOggIABCxAxCDAVD3BFiXCWDhEWgAcAB4AIABd4gBzQKSAQMzLjGYAQCgAQGqAQtnd3Mtd2l6LWltZ8ABAQ&sclient=img&ei=783aZNaZA5P9-LYPxd-P0Ao&bih=786&biw=1468 Paul McCartney, vegan?: https://aretheyvegan.com/paulmccartney/   ATSS LINKS Email: [email protected] Web: https://www.ferrispropertygroup.com/meet/terry Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/terry.waggoner.5 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/terrywaggoner/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@TerryWaggonerRealEstate
