In this episode I share lessons from a book I just read called “You are a Badass” by Jen Sincero. While it’s not written for yoga teachers about teaching yoga and is more of a self help book in general, there are so many relevant lessons in the book that we can apply to teaching. Once you listen, share your thoughts with me by sending me a direct message on Instagram.

Do you ever feel like you’re out there on your own, teaching yoga, and you’ve got questions and no where to turn? I get it. Especially since the pandemic cut down on the number of in person classes, teachers just aren’t seeing other teachers as much. That can add to the feeling of isolation. But more importantly, if you’re facing challenges and have questions, where will you turn? In this episode, I speak to the benefits of working with a yoga coach and take you through a self-guided series of inquiry questions to give you a sense of what’s possible when you do.

In today’s episode, I talk about how to prepare for your classes. The preparation you do has a direct impact on the experience your students will have so it’s so important! I also discuss ways that you can find your “zone of genius” and how you can get into that zone by doing certain specific things. This “zone of genius” is where you can go when you teach so you’re inspiring those in your class.

In the last episode, I shared some ideas for sequencing. This week’s show covers different themes you can use. These themes are independent of the actual postures you teach and can be used with any sequence. Once you listen, you’ll hear the different themes and can try one in your next class to see how it works. I also start out the episode with some thoughts about teaching and thoughts about life, as I recorded this episode on my 58th birthday, 9/29/22. I hope you enjoy it!
