This Isn’t Working Anymore. It’s Time To Pivot | Ep 23
►► TIME SENSITIVE: We’re launching a retreat (in November 2024) JUST for teachers to help give you clarity on what you want, and develop a plan to get there. Space is very limited, so don’t put off signing up if you’re feeling led to join us! Click here for more info.
Are you feeling stuck in life or business as a yoga or fitness instructor and wondering if it’s time for a change?
Like what you’re doing just isn’t working anymore?
In today’s episode we are talking about pivoting.
We’ll discuss how to recognize when it’s time for a pivot and what steps to take to realign with your purpose.
We know all too well the fear and uncertainty that often goes along with making changes in your life or business.
We’ve been through this multiple times (both individually and together as business partners) and have walked through it with coaching clients.
Nick and I share a lot of our own real-life experiences and give you a framework to walk through as you process your next moves.
Friend, I’ve been in this very place myself many times throughout my yoga teaching journey (and I’m currently going through another pivot in real time, which is what prompted this episode…which was a pivot as well, because we were originally going to talk about something else!), and I get how scary it can be.
Whether or not you’re currently facing a pivot yourself, our prayer is that this episode equips and empowers you to make a decision and helps you fast forward through some of the process (and avoid some mistakes).
So grab a cup of coffee or other tasty beverage, pull up a chair, and let's chat about pivoting.
