Our first of many OM magazine collaborations was 10 years ago (I photographed Desi for the cover of the May 2013 issue…also OM’s first Instagram post!), but our story begins two years earlier in 2010 when she taught my prenatal yoga class in Venice, California. I was expecting my first child and Desi’s joyful instruction left me so inspired that I adjusted my work schedule to attend her every class. She would go on to be my yoga guide through all three of my pregnancies and I even appeared in one of her prenatal DVDs. Over a decade later, Desi is a guiding light in the wellness world and to mums everywhere. Our friendship and collaborations have led to yoga articles and books that celebrate and support women in every stage of life. As we welcome in the spring months, let’s see what she
OM meets… DESI BARTLETT
My work now is to have more fun, and hopefully to inspire those who are moving through change, to remember that there can be joy on the other side.
