Episode 191: Finding the Joy In Your Journey with Mikki Trowbridge
“When you build something you love being a part of, then you find other people love being a part of it too.”
What if you could combine your passions and share them with others in a way that puts a smile on their face every day? My guest for this episode is Mikki Trowbridge, the founder of Yoga + Beer and Cofounder of Beer Yogis, and we’re jamming on how she grew a business by marrying two of her favorite passions: beer and yoga.
Highlights of This Episode:
- Creating a unique, and interconnected impact (3:46)
- Why it’s important to be open to new opportunities (5:50)
- How to overcome self-doubt (12:30)
- Finding support along the way (18:29)
- The genesis of Yoga + Beer (26:45)
- How to grow a sprouting business (38:06)
- The hard decision of letting go (47:06)
- How to get unstuck (49:21)
“I never, in a million years, would have thought that my most successful venture would be something that sort of just…happened. It’s constantly a good reminder to plant the seeds and do the work, but to also give space to let things happen, because that’s so often, I think, where the magic is.”
Insights from Mikki:
What’s a must-read for impact entrepreneurs?
- Anything by Malcolm Gladwell
What’s the single-most important trait for entrepreneurs?
- The ability to trust their intuition.
What are you better at than anyone else?
- Showing up when things get really tough.
What idea or belief do very few people agree with you about?
- The best thing you can do for yourself is nothing at all.
What’s the best business advice you’ve ever received?
- “You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off of you.” – Maya Angelou
Do you have any ‘asks’ or requests of the audience?
- Do something for yourself that makes you feel good!
