On this week's short and chatty episode of Yoga Insider, I'm reflecting on some recent changes I've made in my yoga business. I'm also sharing my recent partnership with Lululemon as a Yoga Ambassador, and why the opportunity feels like it has arrived at the perfect time.

In today's episode of Yoga Insider, I'm sharing a heartfelt reflection about the process of finding a new space to host my pre-registered yoga classes. What begins as a practical need for more room quickly becomes a deeper story about recognizing when we're operating from outdated narratives.

I'm reflecting on:

- building an independent yoga business through uncertainty

- lessons on community-building

- why alignment matters more than aesthetics

- why this new chapter allows for greater generosity and improved access to yoga

If you’ve ever faced a change in your teaching or your business, this episode offers a grounded, honest perspective on trusting the next step.

Grab a cup of coffee and settle in.

In this week's episode of Yoga Insider, I'm reflecting on a Yin Yoga & Acupuncture workshop I taught this weekend and considering how teaching the same workshop many times provides valuable opportunity for refinement.

I'm also sharing some behind-the-scenes momentum I've been noticing lately: an influx of new inquiries and website traffic, likely tied to the compounding effects of podcast consistency. Things also get personal when I talk about how I'm learning to hold new levels of visibility in my work.

From there, I get into how I prepare for workshops energetically - not just in terms of logistics. I talk about how I take care of myself in the days leading up to hosting workshops and trainings, and how keeping the needs of your students in mind creates a whole new level of presence. 

Finally, we talk about the reality of teaching: no matter how much you prepare, not every workshop goes as planned. From tech issues to external distractions, I share stories of when things have gone sideways, and what it takes to stay grounded when they do!

This week's episode of Yoga Insider is all about teaching open-level yoga classes with clarity.

Together, we'll explore how to define your role as a teacher in these settings, why offering a clear starting point for all of the poses and techniques you share is crucial, and how communicating criteria for pose progressions helps your students make better decisions for themselves. 

This episode is for yoga teachers who want to lead with clarity and cultivate student agency in open-level classes - without feeling overwhelmed in the process.

This week on Yoga Insider, we're wrapping up our 4-part series on sustainability for yoga teachers and zooming out to take a look at the bigger picture.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why diversifying your income can create stability and choice.
• The importance of leaving room to evolve instead of boxing yourself into a single niche.
• How thoughtful collaboration can reduce isolation and support longevity in your work.
• Why finding a steady rhythm takes time and the hidden work you don't see behind teachers who have found their teaching groove.

Part 2/4 of this series is all about acknowledging your capacity. I like to think of capacity as something fluid that ebbs and flows in seasons, and by working with it rather than against it, we can keep showing up as yoga teachers without burning out. Feel free to grab a pen and paper for this episode, and pause the show to journal or write down your reflections.
