Episode 79: Cortney Loughney: Kids, Yoga, and the Fight for Healthier Futures

Episode 79 of What a Week! dives deep with Cortney Loughney, the powerhouse behind Petite Yogi, who’s been bringing yoga to kids for 12 years. From Scranton’s heart, we tackle the crisis facing our kids: skyrocketing obesity (20% of kids 6-19!), anxiety from junk food poisoning their gut biome, and the fallout of gentle parenting that leaves kids boundary-less and parents burned out. Cortney shares how her yoga programs teach kids mindfulness to manage stress, why processed foods are a health disaster, and how COVID lockdowns—like isolating her son in a hallway for refusing a mask—screwed over a generation. As MAHA warriors, we call for whole foods, real discipline, and mental health focus to save our kids. Plus, hear Cortney’s wild story of her son’s seizures and her fight against school policies. This is a wake-up call—stream now, share, and let’s fight for healthier kids! #WhatAWeek #PetiteYogi #MAHA
