This week on the podcast I am joined by Mado Hesselink. Mado is a yoga teacher, a mother, a yoga business coach, and the host and founder of the Yoga Teacher Resource podcast. I had the pleasure of being a guest on Mado's podcast a couple of months ago, and she is a delight to talk to. Her and I very much have similar beliefs when it comes to the yoga industry, and I'm excited to share this episode where we're talking about how to change the yoga industry from the inside out.

What does that mean? It means that as yoga teachers, we think about how we have to teach in yoga studios and there aren't other options for us, but on this episode, Mado shares how we can become more empowered as yoga teachers to be entrepreneurs. We can be selective about where we teach, how we spend our time and start making more money by offering our teachings outside of the studio space and in other areas of the community.

We also talk about business lessons for yoga teachers, what Mado has learned through her career, and more!

Enjoy!

Since then, Tara has trained BooTy leaders around the world, as well as opened a home studio in Canmore called Studio B.
 
On this episode, Tara and I talk about what it was like to grow her brand and her business, train other teachers around the globe, and what it's been like to open a yoga & fitness studio in a small town.

Dec 17, 2018

This week's episode is the last episode of 2018! As usual, I'm reflecting on the last 12 months and everything that I've accomplished throughout the year. 

I start this episode by sharing where I spent this year. My year was split between 5 months in Mexico, 5 months at home, and 2 months in the United States. By the time this episode airs, I'll be on a plane to Mexico to finish off the year exactly where I started it, in Mexico City. 

This year I've felt a lot of accomplishment. I spent the first half of 2018 doing a lot of personal development and working on my money story to allow money to flow into my life and my business. The second half of the year, I worked my tail off to save for my 300 hour YTT that I'll be doing in early 2019. I said "yes" to every project that came my way, and because of that I am looking to find more ease in 2019. My intention moving forward is to work smarter, not harder. 

My other successes for 2018 include releasing 50 new episodes of the podcast, talking to amazing guests from around the world including Jason Crandell, Diane Bruni and Amber Sears. I doubled my podcast downloads, released my signature course, Yoga Business Bootcamp, and grew my private Facebook community, Yoga Business Badasses a ton. I am so grateful for this community, and I couldn't have done any of that without you guys, so thank you for listening and supporting me! 

Finally, I talk about some of my failures and room for improvement in 2019, where the first half of the year is taking me, and more. 

Enjoy!

This week on the podcast I am joined by Kara Seymour from Liv Kundalini, who is joining me all the way from Portland, Maine. She is a yoga teacher, a studio owner and a mother. Kara started practicing yoga as a single mom, and after falling in love with the practice she decided to become a yoga teacher. Throughout Kara's journey, she's followed the "winks" from the universe that she's received, which has inspired her to open not one, but two yoga studios. Kara shares what it's been like opening a kundalini yoga studio in a state where there isn't much kundalini yoga practiced, what she's learned through the process, advice for new yoga teachers and more.
