This week on the podcast I am joined by Nicole Lovald. Nicole is a yoga teacher, yoga studio owner, and author who joined me from Minnesota! Nicole started practicing yoga to help relieve her stress from her busy corporate job and fell in love with the practice to the point that she decided to teach. Soon after becoming a yoga teacher, she stepped into the role of studio owner and has since grown her business in terms of in-person and online offerings.
On this episode, Nicole and I talk about the business lessons she’s learned a studio owner, as well as how Nicole has been able to grow her business in many “outside of the box ways”. We discuss finding your niche, creating products and services that they love to support your business, and much more!
Enjoy!

This week on the podcast I am joined once again by Sytera Field. When Sytera joined me on the podcast back in 2016, she was only teaching private yoga. In 2018, she opened her studio, SyteraYoga, and hasn’t looked by since then.
On this episode, we talk about what has shifted for Sytera’s business over the last 1.5 years, what she has learned as a yoga studio owner and more. We also talk about her latest endeavor, which is developing the Nadi Ball and the Nadi & Nice method of body rolling. After many years of teaching yoga with massage balls, Sytera decided to develop her own, and she also shares the long and challenging process of developing your own product, including the business lessons she’s learned along the way.
Enjoy!

This week on the podcast I am joined by Kara Seymour from Liv Kundalini, 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.
