The Funny Thing About Yoga

We Spill ALL the Tea with Emma Wilbourn

Episode No. 16

Giana and Bradshaw welcome very special guest Emma Wilbourn to the podcast. They met Emma in San Francisco before the pandemic during a Yoga training. Through the years Emma has been such a big supporter of C.A.Y.A Yoga School having referred several students to the YTT program and in 2022 Giana and Emma started collaborating on Yoga Retreats in the Colorado Rockies. This is where their friendship blossomed and in this episode you can feel the casualness of the conversation. It feels as if you’ve been invited to listen in on yoga teachers personal conversations where they spill the tea and say It as It is. They cover topics ranging from the Denver yoga scene and franchised yoga, teaching full-time, money and other sources of revenue, all while giving solid advice to the aspiring teacher. They aim to motivate and inspire yoga teachers to be their own boss, advocate for themselves, and create a schedule that is sustainable AND yet It still feels like they’ve only scratched the surface. Emma Wilbourn will definitely back to keep this conversation going, but until then let us know what you think and don't forget to rate, review, follow and subscribe!
