Yoga Teacher: Burnout, Breath & Building a Spiritual Business | On The Same Paige #004

Fletcher Nugent knows what it’s like to completely hit your limit.

After competing at a high level in Melbourne’s footy scene, he hit a breaking point — a nervous breakdown that left him unable to get out of bed for months. His path forward wasn’t about getting back to where he was. It was about becoming someone entirely new. Now, he’s a respected evolutionary yoga teacher and Dao wisdom guide, leading young men in ways he never expected.

In this episode, we talk about:
- The burnout that shattered his old identity and forced him to rebuild
- The freakishly serendipitous moment that led him to his spiritual teacher
- Owning a business as a spiritual seeker
- Why the way you breathe has the potential to change you — for better or worse

For anyone who's ever felt like life completely unraveled — only to realise it was leading them somewhere better.
