    Meta Ads for Yoga Teachers: How to Get More Eyes on Your Offers

    Access The Yogiprenuer Ad Lab here Do you have an amazing yoga offer…but feel like not enough freaking people know it exists? 😂 That’s exactly why I started running Meta ads. And after seeing what they’ve done for my own business, I created the Yogipreneur Ads Lab to help yoga teachers learn how to write, create, launch + manage their own campaigns—without a massive budget or handing everything over to an ad agency. This episode gives you a peek inside Day 1. In this episode, we chat about: 👀 Why getting more eyeballs might be the next lever to pull once your offer + conversion event are actually working 💰 The mindset shift that changed the way I think about spending money on ads 📱 How paid ads completely changed my relationship with Instagram—and took some serious pressure off organic content 🔥 Why ads amplify what's already there…which means they might reveal something about your offer you weren't expecting 🎰 The “eff around and find out” approach to Meta Ads 😂 and why randomly boosting posts can feel a whole lot like walking into a casino 😵‍💫The 4 barriers I see keeping Yogipreneurs from ever getting their first campaign out the door If you want more reach, more impact + more income from your yoga teaching offers, turn this one up. And if you want me to walk you through the entire process, Yogipreneur Ads Lab takes you from setup → copy → creative → campaign launch → measuring + managing your ads.

    How to Plan, Sell & Lead Profitable Yoga Retreats w/ Karol De Souza

    Dreaming about hosting a yoga retreat someday? Before you book the dreamy villa and start planning your morning flows…there are a few things you should know. 😂 Karol De Souza has hosted more than 25 retreats around the world and built retreats into the primary revenue stream of her business. And in this conversation, we're pulling back the curtain on what it actually takes to make retreats work—not just as an incredible experience for your students, but as a sustainable business for YOU. We talk about: 🧘‍♀️ Why teaching yoga might actually be the smallest—and easiest—part of hosting a yoga retreat ✨ The “work beneath the work” and why your retreat needs to offer something deeper than yoga, breathwork + a pretty destination 🎯 How to find the bigger transformation your retreat is actually selling—and weave it through the entire experience 👀 How she can sometimes fill HALF a retreat before officially opening enrollment 📱 Why only about 20% of Karol's retreat bookings come directly from Instagram—and why relying entirely on social media can make selling feel so damn hard 💰 Are yoga retreats actually profitable? Karol and I share real numbers from our most profitable retreats…and the ones where we basically broke even 🏨 Why the fanciest retreat venue isn't necessarily the smartest business decision—and how your overhead can make or break your profit 📈 The difference between hosting a retreat and building an actual retreat business ecosystem 👶 The very real behind-the-scenes of hosting retreats while raising babies—and why the Instagram version doesn't always show the beautiful chaos 😂 💸 Deposits, cash flow, collaborators, partnerships, refund policies + some of the less-sexy business decisions you need to think about BEFORE booking that dream location If hosting a retreat has been sitting on your yoga teacher bucket list—or you've already hosted one and thought, “Holy smokes, that was WAY more work than I expected” 😂—this episode will give you a much clearer picture of what it takes to plan, sell, lead, and actually profit from retreats.

    15 Minute Meditation for After an Argument | Find Calm & Perspective

    Welcome to this 15-minute guided meditation for after an argument, designed to help you step out of the mental replay, settle your body, and find a little more perspective around what happened. After a disagreement, it's easy to feel absolutely certain about what you saw, heard, and experienced. But what happens when two people walk away from the exact same moment with two completely different versions of what happened? This meditation explores that question through an old parable about two people and an elephant—and a simple shift in perspective that might change the way you think about conflict. In this meditation you will: 🌿 Settle your body and mind after conflict. 🫁 Step out of the cycle of replaying the conversation. ✨ Create space between your experience and the story surrounding it. 💛 Explore another perspective without abandoning your own. 🌙 Leave with more curiosity, spaciousness, and calm. You don't need to decide who was right. You don't even need to resolve what happened. You might simply need to see the elephant differently.

    The Yogipreneurial Path: What It Actually Takes to Build Beyond the Studio

    Jump on the Yogipreneur Mastermind 5.0 (kicks off Spring of 2027) Do you want to build something beyond the yoga studio…but sometimes wonder if you actually have what it takes to do it? I recently kicked off Yogipreneur Mastermind 4.0, and somewhere between our opening ceremony, sharing circle, journaling, and a little motivational-speaker moment 😂, I realized this conversation needed to be shared. Because building a yoga business isn't just about learning offers, marketing, and sales—it's about becoming the person who can actually lead the thing. In this episode, we chat about: ✨ Why self-trust might be the sexiest and least talked-about strategy in business 💩 The steaming pile of shit, the hidden pony & what they have to teach us about developing a growth mentality 😂 🏊‍♀️ Why entrepreneurship requires emotional athleticism—and the Diana Nyad visual I want you to remember when you're ready to quit 😬 The insidious little “rumor weed” of self-doubt and why keeping it to yourself can kill your momentum 🏈 Why you need to run the play fully before your emotions convince you to abandon it halfway through 🌀 How to tell the difference between being busy and actually doing the work that moves the needle 💛 Why building a business may have a lot more in common with your yoga practice than you think If you're building something beyond the studio—or even just feeling the first little stirring that you want to—this one's for you.

    Optimal Breathing: What It Is & How to Practice It w/ Jessica Dibb

    Do you know how to breathe… or have you just assumed your body has it handled? Jessica Dibb is back for round two! This time, we’re going beyond breathwork techniques to explore what optimal breathing actually means—and how conscious breathing can move beyond something you practice on your yoga mat and become something you live. In this episode, we chat about: 🌬️ What “optimal breathing” actually means—and why there’s no perfect formula that works for everyone 👄 Mouth breathing, underbreathing, overbreathing & “air hunger”… oh my 🧘‍♀️ Why Jessica wants us to stop thinking about taking a deep breath and start experiencing being breathed ✨ Received, not achieved: the perspective shift that got me emotional in the middle of our conversation 🧠 How breathwork can create a state shift → trait shift when you practice consistently 🏡 Beyond breathwork: what happens when conscious breathing follows you into washing dishes, raising kids, rushing out the door & ordinary life 😮 The 11 breathwork practices Jessica believes belong in your toolkit—and the ONE she recommends starting with 🌀 The “plane of possibility,” the Wheel of Awareness & what any of this has to do with your very first breath ⏱️ Why someone else’s “perfect” inhale-to-exhale ratio might not be optimal for your body 🌊 The pace of grace: what happened when Jessica tried conscious breathing in the middle of a very real-life rush And stay until the end because Jessica guides us through an experiential practice of receiving breathing + Matrika Pranayama so you can actually feel what we’ve spent the episode talking about. If you missed our first conversation, Breath: The Universal Language That Connects Us All w/ Jessica Dibb, go back and listen to Part 1 for our conversation on the five groups of breathwork, breath and brain anatomy, and why breath may be the one language every human shares.
