What If You're Already a Success? With Rosie Acosta

Success can be questioned and expanded: being rich, influential, knowledgeable, powerful — these are narrow definitions of success, all  based on measuring ourselves against each other in some way. What if you are already successful based on your own values and you just never  recognized it?

Growing up in a low-income area in Los Angeles, Rosie Acosta witnessed violent crime and poverty firsthand and even had her own run-ins with the law. As a teen, Rosie made a choice to change her life, and search for mindfulness through yoga. Rosie is now a health coach,  meditation and yoga teacher, a podcaster, and an author — a definition  of success to many, but Rosie has had to repeatedly remind herself that  the milestones of success do not always equal happiness.
