• The power of building a strong, consistent personal brand (including the story behind her signature glasses)
• Smart social media strategies: focusing your online presence on your niche and leveraging platforms for business growth, not distraction
• The importance of comprehensive teacher training programs that go beyond just teaching poses to include philosophy, anatomy, and business skills
• Why investing in quality education and community creates lasting confidence and success in teaching yoga
• How to shift your mindset around sales and marketing to build a thriving yoga business with integrity
• The realities of building an online yoga business—hard work, patience, and dedication required for real results
