On today's podcast episode I am celebrating 1 year of podcasting! Yes that is right, Ancient Wisdom for the Modern Wellness Professional has officially been out for one year. 

I'm coming at you in this podcast episode with a simple, straightforward message. It's time to quit hiding and start being visible. 

If you're looking to take your business to your next level, and I know you are because you are listening to this podcast, then pay attention now. 

So many people feel comfortable with their money with their clients, with their marketing before they feel comfortable, really cranking up their visibility and stepping out into the world to showcase their gifts. So you're not alone.

If this feels like a scary topic for you can also do something about it today, visibility looks different for everybody.

It doesn't just mean going live on social media every day. The work more does not mean better in that regard, by the way, but it's about taking yourself to your edge, with your message so that the right people hear you, see you, learn to trust you, and eventually buy from you. 

So if you're hiding at home, because you're not comfortable with your weight or you don't like the way your nose looks, or you have a sincere fear around it, you're not helping anyone else receive your expertise when they need it. You're also not helping yourself move your business forward. 

So today let's take a closer look at what might be blocking you and how you can move through that mindfully with grace and ease so that you can catapult your business into a much stronger place.

On today's podcast episode, where we're talking about the single most important thing you need to do to move yourself forward in your business. 

​I coach and mentor all different kinds of wellness, entrepreneurs, yoga teachers, healers, people who facilitate women's circles and energy work. All of these unique people have unique goals. None of them are the same, which is why cookie cutter approaches to success never work. 

​​Some of these people desire more money for themselves and to support their families, others, desire to learn how to trust themselves and be a better leader. Others still want to learn how to manage bigger groups of people as their studios and communities grow. ​What they have in common is the fact that all of them are willing to step up and implement the strategies that we come up with together. 

​​What I want you to know is that it doesn't matter how ironclad your strategy is. It doesn't matter how many marketing plans you have. It doesn't matter how many podcasts episodes you listened to. If you do not set aside the time and energy to actually implement these things in your business, you're going to go nowhere.

On today's podcast we are going to talk about reframing your mindset around the type of people you want to attract and your business.

Where matters of inclusion are concerned, the yoga industry has been muted for years. Therein lies the problem.

Many people are muting themselves on social media this week in solidarity with the the Black Lives Matter movement, a movement which I fully support. However, some yoga and wellness businesses and influencers are using this as a chance to continue to remain silent in the name of “love and light”. This is unacceptable.

Today’s episode is an acknowledgment of the mistakes yoga and wellness businesses have made (my business included) and how we can take responsibility for ushering in change.

I’m not a perfect leader and I most certainly will make mistakes along the way. So will you. But just like I do on my yoga mat, I’m committed to working through these mistakes and continuing to show up day after day as I become a better ally to BIPOC in the wellness world and beyond.

P.S. Listen all the way to the end of the episode to hear what resources have helped me. I’m sure they will help you too.

On today’s podcast episode we’re talking about the biggest lessons I have learned from self isolation with COVID-19.

Now that we are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, I hear people saying that we are ready to be back to normal. Here is what I have to say, We will never be back to normal. If you keep saying you are ready to be back to normal, then you are missing the entire point of the lessons we have learned over the last 9 weeks of self isolation. 

I am thankful for these lessons as now we have seen what the addition to busyness and many fo the systems and ways of life we have in place are not sustainable for our lives. We have had to become more resourceful then we have ever had to be. We have seen our planet heal and recover. 

I hope that we never return back to the way we were, but we will resume to a new rhythm of life with greater appreciation and new insights into our way of being.

On today’s podcast episode we’re taking an honest look at what COVID-19 and the subsequent “free yoga epidemic” has taught us about our industry. There’s a lot to unpack here, both positive and negative. 

First, let me say that yoga teachers and healers have huge hearts. Their strong desire to help others is beautiful and it comes from a noble place.  

Unfortunately, this compulsion to caretake others has also showcased a plethora of other issues in its wake. What kind? Let me count the ways!

Sadly, many teachers and studios do not value themselves or their level of knowledge. I have seen teachers tossing free classes around left and right, then creating a go fund me pages to ask for help covering their expenses. Why not just own your expertise and charge appropriately for your services from the start? 

Yoga teachers who understand leadership have been able to weather this storm with steadiness and strength by providing consistency for their people. Those who don’t are on the express train to burnout and it’s not pretty. 

If the constant pivot of the last 9 weeks has been a drain on your energy, please know it doesn’t have to be that way. You can change your patterns for the better, and I can help you do it.

On today's episode where we're diving into why it is absolutely crucial that all healers, not just yoga teachers step up and lead right now. 

As I record this episode we are heading into week eight of self isolation during the coronavirus pandemic.The panic button was pushed long ago and the adrenaline that goes hand in hand with that has come and gone. People are now settling into their new normal or (trying to).

As the novelty wears off, many people are looking for sustainable tools for their well being. Mental health is finally becoming a centerpiece in people’s self care routines. The longer people isolate (which is not natural for humans) the more they realize caring for both their physical bodies and their mental state is crucial to coming out the other side of this pandemic in a strong way. 

People are actively seeking healing practices like yoga, reiki, and various modalities to help them at home and beyond. They need them now. This is YOUR time to step up and lead. 

I know you're probably thinking, who am I to lead others in the midst of such chaos and suffering? I’m here to lovingly lower the boom and remind you that this is NOT the time for you to hide. Your crucial healing talents are needed now more than ever.
