In this week’s episode, I’m joined by Karen Fabian—yoga teacher, podcast host, author, and founder of Bare Bones Yoga. Karen shares her inspiring journey from a career in the corporate world to teaching yoga full-time. We talk about the evolution of teacher training in the early 2000s, the realities of building a sustainable yoga business, and how Karen’s background in anatomy and rehabilitative medicine shaped her approach to teaching. She also opens up about the impact of the pandemic, shifting to online teaching, and the lessons she’s learned about creating a resilient career. Whether you’re a new or experienced teacher, Karen’s insights into business-building, diversifying income, and staying connected to your purpose will leave you motivated and refreshed.
