The podcast for female yoga teachers and other wellness entrepreneurs wanting to turn their passion into profit, and create a business that they and their students love.
To be human is to have seasons, to have cycles, to have movements of highs and moments of lows, and let's not forget everything in between. How we hold space for ourselves as business owners in all of these seasons is how we ensure our long-term business success. Can you not let the lows mean anything? Can we sit in the discomfort of something not selling? Can we not let the highs be moments we miss, or don't celebrate, or worst still, tell ourselves we can't keep this up? Can we allow ourselves to be in the space of the in-between, where we are open to receiving and just getting on with those everyday tasks and life. It's all needed, it's all neutral, it's all part of being human, can we let it all exist! As a business coach, I not only practice holding space for myself through my seasons, but for my clients too. In fact, I show up more when my clients are in a low moment, guiding them through this and seizing the opportunity that is there is something I love doing. Navigating this alone is nearly impossible. I invite you not to.

If you believe the hype, online courses are no longer selling, and launches are dead… This is not true! What is true however is things are changing, but this is nothing new, after 15+ years as a solo soul-led entrepreneur I can tell you that being in it for the long game is the process of repeating, refining and adapting. What worked for creating, delivering, and selling online courses has shifted since I joined the online course creator party when the rest of the world did in 2020! Things have shifted, but I am still very much selling and delivering successful online courses. Semi-passive, scalable income is something I will advocate most people bring into the offer mix of their business, but like everything let's be in it for the long game. My top tips for delivering and selling online courses in 2025: Make it a need to have a specific, no-brainer offer. Keep it short and sweet, especially if it has a high percentage of self-self-led study. Human connection in the selling process is essential; people should feel like individuals rather than numbers in a marketing machine. Drop the overwhelm with overly long sale pages, and multiple bonus offers that people probably don't need. Waitlists are key to gaining expression of interest, remember to reward your waitlist wonders. If the course is not going to be a cast of thousands, have a capped cohort that reflects how many you would like to join and you have the capacity to hold space for. What has remained the same is the importance of growing an email list and audience. Yes, I want you to make semi-passive passive income, but you must have someone to sell it to first!

Should it be free or paid? I've been asked this question a lot recently! Why? Lots of my 1:1 clients are bringing in online offers, whether it be a membership, course, or simply a one-off live training or class. We're, therefore, spilling into the world of launching. What should we charge for an online offer, and whether something should be free or paid? The answer is – it depends! It depends on the purpose of the free offer. Is it to launch, build awareness, grow your mailing list and call your tribe closer? Do you feel called to give it for free? Or is it a paid offer, one where you know you need to charge to ensure: People show up for your offer. You show up for your offer. All options are equal; all options are neutral, all you can do is let your intuition and energy lead, and if you're not sure be in test-and-see mode. What if I can't get this wrong? It was great to dive into such a practical topic today. You need both intuition and energy fused with actionable strategy. That's what I am all about, and I'd love to hang out more!

Well, it depends on your point of view and whether mistakes are just opportunities to learn and grow. But the truth is I created something mind-blowingly good in 2024, I completely undersold it and to be honest, did not fully know at the time exactly what it was I was creating. My new business course Energy, Mindset, Money & More, was one of my best creations of 2024. But not enough of you experienced it because I didn't know exactly what it was and sold it badly. But now I do. I want you to know this is how to do business. This is the only business course you need. It is jammed full of strategy and personal, tailored advice, as this is a small cohort group programme, but it is also full of magic, of energy maps and stuff I can't explain. But if you're ready to do things differently, if you're ready for magic fused with aligned action, then make sure you join.

I start this week's podcast with the big reveal, my word for 2024... Quantum! 2024 has been a wild and wonderful ride, and I thought my word was about my business and the changes my heart had been yearning to call in for some time. But ALL areas of my life have seen radical changes for the better. And the one that has been the best caught me totally by surprise, but my god, I am grateful for this change, you'll have to listen in to find out more! Your guidance word marks out the energy of the year. I've used this practice for years, and it works for me way better than any specific data-driven goal. Not that I think you shouldn't have these, but let the energy lead, it is everything, after all! I dive deeper into how I call in this word on my Substack, are you a member of this community yet?

I have wanted to share this story, literally all year! At the end of 2023, 2 weeks before Christmas I joined a mastermind, this was not what I had planned. But when Lucy Sheridan showed me the sales page for her New Era mastermind something deep inside me told me very strongly that I had to say yes to this. I said yes to a £10,000, investment. I have never invested in myself and my business at this price before. I had the first monthly instalment, but the rest of the money was unknown. And it was by far the BEST decision I have ever made. I joined because I knew I was ready for a big shift in my business, and I needed the guidance of someone like Lucy to make it. I also needed to get out of Cornwall, without my kids in tow, and this Mastermind had in-person meet-ups in Birmingham, London, Peak District and Edinburgh. But this mastermind has changed me on so many levels, and I have made new friends that are quite frankly priceless. This mastermind taught me to trust my higher self, even if on paper it seems crazy, to believe in the impossible and that magic is all around us. I have had so many incredible experiences it is impossible to put into words. All I can ask of you is to take a huge leap of faith whatever that may look like for you. d if working with me 1:1 in a mastermind-type model might be your leap of faith, then pop your name on the waitlist here - https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/your-purpose-waitlist Doors open mid-November for a small cohort of 8. And if you are missing my weekly voice, remember you can join my Substack.

Today's episode has been a hard one to record, but after much consideration and clear guidance from my higher self that this is the right thing to do I have decided to reduce my podcasting frequency from weekly to monthly. There are a total of 122 episodes! Did you know that statistically, most podcasts don't get past 3 episodes? After 2 and half years and over 10K of downloads I am so proud of myself and very grateful to you all for tuning in each week. But yoga teaches us nothing is constant; everything is subject to change, and it is time for a change to my podcasting frequency. I am freeing up more time for me, more time for my family and more time for my paying clients. Energy is everything and energetically this feels right for us all. I will still be recording a weekly video/podcast covering all aspects of both business strategy and energy work as part of my Substack subscription. To have access to these weekly videos, extra business masterclasses and yoga classes, plus an archive of all previous posts this will cost £4.40 a month or £44 a year. You can still be a free member of my Substack subscription, this will now only include written guidance. JOIN HERE - https://energymindsetmoneyandmore.substack.com/ In short, I am being called to give less away for free and show up more deeply for my paying clients. I know this will be good for us all. When we involve ourselves in the energy exchange of money we commit more deeply to the change we want. And I know that you do want to share your gifts more, help more and make more money, so it is time to put your money where your heart is. I'll be back in November for free, but in the meantime join my Substack (£4.40 a month, it's the cost of a takeaway coffee!) or check out how you can work with me more deeply below.

Today I share a very powerful snippet from the recent Q&A call I hosted after the Energetics of Selling masterclass. And somethings are too good not to share! From creating an online membership to pivoting and avoiding brand procrastination, this call models how I can support you. And this depth of advice only comes from years, 15 years to be precise, of experience as a solo, service based entrepreneur. And the biggest thing I have learnt is it is utter madness to try and do this stuff alone. It is essential to invest in working with someone who can guide you to where you would like to be. And of course that happens to me. If you listen to my podcast each week, it is now time to take it up a level and commit to a deeper level of change and join my online Programme, Energy, Mindset, Money & More. This is an online programme with a twist, we get to have a hug! It also includes one of my in-person VIP business days down in sunny Cornwall. So not only do you benefit from the power of your investment, but also from the power of in-person interaction. You've heard my voice for so long, imagine what working with me for a day will be like.

Before I dive into today I have a big invitation to all my listeners, but particularly my super fans who tune weekly. The free stuff is great, I know the difference my podcast makes but if I am fully truthful with you here the real change comes when you hit the buy it now button. When you commit with the energy of money – this is the power on investment. If you listen to my podcast each week, it is now time to take it up a level and commit to a deeper level of change and join my online Programme, Energy, Mindset, Money & More. This is an online programme with a twist, we get to have a hug! It also includes one of my in-person VIP business days down in sunny Cornwall. So not only do you benefit from the power of your investment, but also from the power of in-person interaction. You've heard my voice for so long, imagine what working with me for a day will be like. JOIN HERE – https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/energy-money-mindset-and-more Doors close 9pm Tuesday 2nd October Today's episode is sorry not sorry moment. I've been there soaking up all the free stuff, listening to all the podcasts, searching for that one thing that will make a difference and you know what I discovered? INVESTING, aka paying to be part of courses and working with coaches and mentors. The minute I hit the buy it now button was the minute I changed how I showed up and I want the same for you too. When we commit to change and put some money behind this it does feel scary, it is the singular reason why people hold back and give reasons like “not for me at this time”, or “can't afford it”. In some case, this may be true, but in many cases people are scared to fully say yes to the change they want. But in the end we invest when the pain of staying where we are is greater than saying yes to the scary change we want. For one last time today if you want to make more money, help more people and create a business where you are doing more of what lights you up, it is time to invest, the free stuff has got you this far, but now it's time for more!

JOIN THE ENERGETICS OF SELLING HERE -https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/energeticsofselling Money mind and healing my relationship with money is an ongoing practice for me (just like my yoga practice!) Like all women I have been programmed to believe wanting money is bad, it's wrong to ask for money and find myself regularly over-delivering and under-charging. I have been working on my money mindset for a good 3 years, and I do know that money is a flow of energy, with practice and time you can open yourself up to receive more. With an abundance of time and money, you can direct this overflow to any causes that you feel passionately about, and this is way more powerful than under-charging on the grounds it makes you ‘affordable'. I truly believe the world will be a better place when more women are doing what lights them up, helping people and make money. It feels like my life mission right now. After the Energetics of Selling free training on Monday, I would love for you to work with me further this Autumn in my new programme Energy, Mindset, Money & More. More on this next week, but for now it is safe for you to make money from your gifts, so get out there!

We are not dodgy car salesmen, we are incredible women with incredible services and yes we should be shouting from the rooftops about them. This comes with practice.

Before I dive in today here is my BIG invitation to sign up for my FREE live training “The Energetics of Selling”. Happening at 8pm Monday 16th September (and yes there is a replay). I am launching my new business and my new course Energy, Mindset, Money and More with this new epic FREE training. JOIN HERE – https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/energeticsofselling As my focus is all on selling, today I discuss who is ready to buy from you and therefore who you should focus on selling to. So often we focus on needing new people and growing our audience and miss those warm and super-hot people already in front of us ready to buy! Virtually everyone who buys into your offers will know or feel like they know you. On average people need 7 to 14 contact points before making a purchase of any kind, and that includes you and your services. The people most likely to buy from you probably have already bought something from you and are ready for me. Focus on those ready to buy, nurture those nearly ready and invite new people in to get to know you. The warmer people get and the more hot super fans you have the more easy you will make sales. This takes time to build, so give it time. Sign up for my FREE training the Energetics of Selling, and I can help you with this further.

The Energy of Selling Part 3 of my 3-part series – Energy is Everything! I start with the BIGGEST invitation ever: JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR MY NEW PROGRAMME HERE - https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/jointhewaitlist Welcome to the third and final part of my 3-part series Energy is Everything, inspired by what is possibly my best course, and best offer to date, launching on my 46th birthday this September. Do add your name to the waitlist, it is time to do business differently, it is time for women to rise, share their gifts with the world, help people and make money. And as service-based female entrepreneurs this is not easy. Why? Because we are the product of our business, it feels like we are marketing and selling ourselves. And selling yourself can feel really hard, not to mention a whole load of dense layers of money-mind stuff crap, all designed to keep women small and repel the flow of money. The yoga industry is a multi-billion-dollar industry, and wellness is a multi-trillion, with a predominately female workforce. Women are naturally drawn to caring professions and have a desire to use their gifts to heal and help. But why in such financially abundant industries should any female service-based entrepreneur struggle to create a financially sustainable way of working? Because we're hard-wired to over-give, under-charge and feel generally bad when it comes to asking for money and charging appropriately. And I know you want to help people and in this, you want to be affordable. Well, affordability is relative and if you want to help people, create a business model where you have an abundance of time and money and my darling you can choose where to direct the excess energy of money and time that you have to whatever causes you feel passionate about. But please stop under-charging, please stop with the crazy payment methods and please start the work on your money mindset. It's not easy, it's ongoing work, but it is so needed in the world right now, but the truth is you are not meant to do this work alone, so make sure your name is on that waitlist! One invitation this week, here it is again – JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR MY NEW PROGRAMME HERE - https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/jointhewaitlist It is time to do business differently!
Part 2 of my 3-part series – Energy is Everything! I start with the BIGGEST invitation ever: JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR MY NEW PROGRAMME HERE - https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/jointhewaitlist Welcome to the second part of my 3-part series Energy is Everything, inspired by what is possibly my best course, and best offer to date, launching on my 46th birthday this September. Do add your name to the waitlist, it is time to do business differently, it is time for women to rise, share their gifts with the world, help people and make money. And as service-based female entrepreneurs this is not easy. Why? Because we are the product of our business, it feels like we are marketing and selling ourselves. And it can feel really uncomfortable to show your face, share your voice and tell people who you are, what it is you do and how you can help them (aka marketing) Oh, and the end part of this is “do you want it”, aka selling! Think of marketing as becoming a magnet, you have to put yourself out there, so people can find you and see if you're a good energetic match. You have to attract your tribe, but as part of this you have to repel, and yes some people won't feel energetically aligned with you, but that's ok we don't need lots of people to have a profitable, sustainable business, we just need our people. And then have to be able to find us and see who we are. So yes you do need to show your face! This is all easier said than done, the truth is you are not meant to do this work alone, so make sure your name is on that waitlist! One invitation this week, here it is again – JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR MY NEW PROGRAMME HERE - https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/jointhewaitlist It is time to do business differently!
Part 1 of my 3-part series – Energy is Everything! I start with the BIGGEST invitation ever: JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR MY NEW PROGRAMME HERE - https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/jointhewaitlist Welcome to the first part of my 3-part series Energy is Everything, inspired by what is possibly my best course, and best offer to date, launching on my 46th birthday this September. Do add your name to the waitlist, it is time to do business differently, it is time for women to rise, share their gifts with the world, help people and make money. And as service-based female entrepreneurs this is not easy. Why? Because we are the product of our business, it feels like we are marketing and selling ourselves. As the product of our business, we are at the centre of it, we are the golden goose, and our energy should be protected at all costs. Accept as women we are hard-wired to over-give, and under-charge and this dims our light and drains our energy. But the best thing about being a serviced-based entrepreneur is there is only one of you, you are utterly unique, and your tribe will be blessed to work with you. Honour your energy, work with it and the rest will fall into place. This is easier said than done, the truth is you are not meant to do this work alone, so make sure your name is on that waitlist! One invitation this week, here it is again – JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR MY NEW PROGRAMME HERE - https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/jointhewaitlist It is time to do business differently!
This week I was gifted this statement from a very wise woman indeed “Burnout comes from doing too much of what you don't want to do” Yes, yes it does! As women, we are hard-wired to over-deliver, under-charge, and people please, which means saying no sometimes is very hard. Driven by all the ‘shoulds', we do things we don't want to do and shy away from those things we truly want if they conflict we conventional wisdom. You may love what you do, but if you're under-charge and over-deliver the energy will be out of balance, and that is the place of burnout. Something that is unsustainable is only unsustainable for so long. The narrative of overwhelm, burnout, feeling stuck and tired is heavily attached to women in business. What we focus on expands, is it time to move to a different way of working and being so this narrative is no longer one we identify with? I certainly believe so! I am busting to tell you all about my new business course, it's all about doing business differently - waitlist coming very soon. But for now, here's how we can hang out more: My business is diversifying, along with all the great yoga teacher training courses, I am also offering mentoring for female soul-led entrepreneurs, and there's so much stuff happening (yes I am a generator), the best thing you can do is visit the following: Yoga Teacher Training Visit – www.amy-yoga.com Soul-led Female Entrepreneurs Visit (new website coming soon!) –https://energymindsetmoneyandmore.substack.com/
A reduction in sales in your business and the number of clients signing up for your offers. Is this leading you to panic or at the very least annoying you. Well, if you've answered yes to the questions above this podcast episode are for you. I can say hand on heart after 14+ years of teaching and running yoga classes, yes it is very normal for fewer people to want to commit to my in-person classes. And yes income used to dip at this stage of the year, and yes I used to panic and not be prepared for this! But I have learnt that just it is simply not true that your income dips in the summer, there are still people wanting you and your services, and you need to adapt to services that suit the season. Maybe that's more bespoke 1:1 offers or an online flexible course or you open the doors to booking your future retreats and start collecting re-occurring payments. You learn to plan and adapt, after all, it is only summer in this part of the world! Not to mention everyone who has a seasonable Christmas-based business right now is planning and preparing for this – you could be doing the same! Keep making offers, don't let assumptions impact your actions or non-actions, and allow the contrast, the stuff you don't want, to move you in the direction you do want. Want more of my help?

Episode 6 season 2 – My experiences of Substack Early this year I started my new Substack community, “Energy, Mindset, Monday and More”. What is Substack? It's hard to say exactly, it's a form of email marketing as each post lands as an email in your inbox, but you can also see posts directly in Substack. It's not just written form you can imbed videos and even podcast directly from Substack. People subscribed to your Substack can see archives of previous posts and you can choose to allow people to comment on posts. You can choose to give it all away for free or put some or certain features behind a paywall, so you can monetise your email list. Best of all it's free, super easy to set up, and if you do yet have email marketing set up (why not, I have been talking about this for over 2 years now!), then it could be the quickest, easiest and most effective way for you to do this. No website needed, no excuses, set aside time to make it happen. Why? Because the power of a small, engaged community of your tribe is immense, and I would draw my focus here over social media any day. I have loved using Substack to grow my new business, to let people know how else I can help them in my role as a business and energy mentor. And if you are a female, service-based entrepreneur and you want to make more money doing what you love in a way that energetically supports you then you really need to join my Substack today!

Today I share with you how over the last 14+ years of being a self-employed service-based entrepreneur I have learnt a rhythm that works for me in terms of planning for profit in my business. But it's not just about profit, I plan for the busy times in my business, I plan for the busy times in my personal and family life, I plan for ideas I already to come into physical form and I plan for space. This is space for new ideas, surfing and the odd unplanned personal event, which happens, especially when you have kids! Planning helps you feel safe and gives you a sense of control, rather than always reacting. I have learnt to do this after years of always reacting! Trust me your nervous system will thank you. On that topic how you plan and organise your time is up to you, it does not need to be my way, it needs to be your way. So, get practising and testing out how best to be in control of the time you do have. Here we get to experience time being more expansive. You'll also hear at the ends my plans to launch my new business this September, I am so excited about all that is coming your way. For now, do make sure you're also in my Substack community, for more of this golden advice! Want more of my help?

Inspired by meeting an incredible woman this week who has been a human rights lawyer, set up community support projects aboard and is now a woman's coach and yoga teacher with younger children, who is looking to build a new way of working. And what was stopping her from charging appropriately and growing her business? A fear that if she made more money, wanted to make more money she would be greedy! Greedy! Can you imagine what money in the hands of this woman would mean for her, her family and all those causes she would use her time and money to support? This is a very important message for us all. - Wanting more money is not greedy, this is a lie we are fed. - Money is just a flow of an energetic resource, it does not care who you are and what you plan to do it with, - When you have an abundance of time and money you can decide how to use that excess energy. And I think we can all agree more money in the hands of women will make the world a better place. Want more of my help?

Inspired by my new 30-day online group programme “Ideas to Action”. JOIN HERE – https://amyjonesmentor.mykajabi.com/ideastoaction Doors close Tuesday 2nd July 8pm. Have you ever heard the phrase “there are no new ideas”? I believe ideas live in the non-physical space, aka the space we can't see, which according to Pam Gregory, the best astrology on YouTube, the unseen makes up 90%, and I have to say I think I agree with her. Ideas are just floating around waiting for us physical beings, aka humans, to receive them and then if they're meant for us to take action. The problem often is we don't take action, our beautiful brain for a whole multitude of made-up excuses says a big fat “no”, and those ideas stay just that, and we get increasingly frustrated, particularly by others who seemingly are doing what we want to do! Today I advise on the following: What to do when you get your idea How to navigate having too many ideas, I literally could start a new business or launch a new programme every day! How to know if the idea is meant for you, or perhaps you need to pass it on, I touch on Human Design and the role of a Generator. What to do when the ideas aren't flowing, and you need them to. I'm going to say it one more time, if you catch this episode by 8pm Tuesday 2nd July, you have no choice but to join my new Ideas to Action 30-day group programme.

Inspired by a question someone asked me on how to manifest their dream life and my “Ideas to Action” July offers coming up, today's episode is all about how we create. Truth be told I struggle with the term ‘manifest', and I cannot fully subscribe to the concept that we are responsible for all that happens to us. We are after all human beings on this tiny blue planet hurtling through space, we have to accept there are external circumstances beyond our control. But our thoughts do become things, and our beliefs, which are thoughts we have continued to think over time, directly inform the actions or inactions we take. So yes when we are in this sense responsible for the creation of our reality, I like to live by the 80/20 rule, pretty much on everything! How to Manifest: Get clear on what you do want. Pay attention to your thoughts, especially the ones that are telling you “no you can't do that”. Question these thoughts, are they true – probably not! Reverse engineer your steps to create what you want, and take the next available step. Oh and give your nervous system some love, because it's not all about overcoming the mind, you have to bring the body with you, you're human after all! You are not meant to do this alone, so please stop, here's how I can help you with this work in July: Ideas to Action In-person - https://amyjonesmentor.mykajabi.com/offers/24mduHcg/checkout Online - https://amyjonesmentor.mykajabi.com/ideastoaction Want more of my help?

My human design-type is a generator, that is why you will always see me flowing with new ideas, and my strategy is to respond. Ask me about your business and I am in my happy place, I love responding to your questions and I love nothing more than helping female soul-led entrepreneurs to do what lights them up and make money. As I said in today's episode I truly believe this is my contribution to making the world a better place, the more horrific the news gets, the more fire there is in my belly to help women find aligned ways of being and working, that bring more balance, joy and harmony to the world. Undoing thousands of years of programming that has kept us from fully sharing our gifts, being our true authentic selves, and feeling wrong talking about money, let alone asking for it, is not going to be easy. But I am here for the journey and I invite you to come with me, women it is time! And I hope you can see from today's episodes that all you feel and experience as a yoga teacher and a female soul-led entrepreneur, is true for others too. I also hope you can see that my 24+ years of experience in education and 14+ years of experience as a female entrepreneur means I've got plenty of ways I can support you. It was a joy to answer the questions today that ranged from navigating dropping class numbers, building online courses and signature programmes, creating consistent streams of income, and really the big two for me: How do we stay grounded and connected in business when, like the rest of the human race, life happens to us? How do we sell ourselves and our services, because even just showing our faces can be damn scary? Want more of my help?

Season Finale! Two years in, 104 episodes, 9000+ downloads and the end of season one, where do I begin? Firstly, a huge THANK YOU to everyone who listens and supports me, I am so grateful to you all, you are the reason I show up every week. Stepping into the world of podcasting has taught me a lot, all of which is transferable to life and business! Consistency is king, but you can only be consistent if you are doing what you love, and I love to talk! You have to allow yourself to be a beginner, to start something new, we all start from zero. The power of connection and community always comes before sales, people have to know you before they buy anything from you. The greatest joy from podcasting for 2 years has been all the positive feedback and help that I have offered to other yoga teachers and female soul-led entrepreneurs. I cannot wait for more of this! As we enter season 2 you will notice a little shift, but this shift has been obvious as my episodes evolved, I just haven't been brave enough to say it, but I am literally coming out! I am stepping into my new role as a business and energy mentor for female-soul-led entrepreneurs, the epic work I do with yoga teachers and yoga teacher training is going nowhere, but my mission is to help more women do what lights them up and make money, and season 2 of the Prosperous Yogini Podcast is coming with me on this mission, so let's go! Start by joining next week - PODCAST PARTY 14th JUNE 1pm – YOU ARE INVITED Join me on Friday 14th June for a live Q&A podcast party to mark my 2-year podcasting anniversary.

When you find your zone of genius, you find your flow, you find what you truly came here to do in this given moment. The zone of genius concept is not mine, it belongs to Gay Hendricks and I strongly recommend you read his book The Big Leap, to fully understand it. To find our zone we have to go out play, test, and learn, and I believe sometimes get it wrong in order to get it right. I love the concept as it reinforces the mindset that there is room for us all, we are all unique, and individual, and the competition we feel and perceive is false. We can struggle to find it, especially if we are being called to do something radically different from where we currently find ourselves. Societal beliefs can often see us conforming to paths away from our zone! The weight of I ‘should do this', weighs heavy on us all. Your zone of genius is that place where you feel totally lit up, where if it's work it certainly doesn't feel like it. We all have this place, and my mission is to guide more women to do what lights them up and find their zone.

After an incredible week where I launched my new “Ideas to Action” in-person coaching workshop this was the message that came through loud and strong to share on my podcast this week: Scarcity is a lie. A lie that drives fear, and non-action, and at its worst causes us to be unkind and make judgements of others. All of this negative energy keeps us small and blocks the flow of money and joy to us. What we focus on expands. Other female entrepreneurs doing what you want to do, and having success are not stealing anything from you, they simply lead the way. There is room for us all. Scarcity is a lie, fed to keep us small, it's time to wake up and start questioning all that we currently believe about what is and isn't possible. Once again I know none of what I say this week is easy to hear, I have been there resenting another woman's success, and not responding with kindness. As I evolve I am coming to accept that I am here for these difficult conversations, delivered with love and empathy, because THIS IS the stuff as a woman, as a human being, that I work through too. As my podcast moves into its 3rd year, 2nd season, these are the conversations and topics you will hear a lot more of. Working through the beliefs and programming that seek to suppress us is not easy, it's virtually impossible to do this stuff alone, yet that's what we opt for. Here's my invitation to you to stop going it alone, let's work together: For Female Entrepreneurs – https://energymindsetmoneyandmore.substack.com/For Yoga Teachers – visit www.amy-yoga.com
Episode 101 – The 3 reasons why you are under-charging After several conversations this week around prices and money I felt compelled to do this topic today. Truth is your relationship with money and money mindset is an ongoing practice, one I am still very much working with alongside you. But the more we wake up to the conditioning and programme that has sought to keep women small, to keep money out of our hands, the more we can lead the way for future generations. None of it is easy, sorry! But here's why you're under-charging: Thousands of years of conditioning from the patriarchal system that taught us money was not something we could have or should want. We see the impact of this in the statistics of wealth in men versus women. This system is crumbling away, and we have to seriously start to question what we've been told. We're all just copying each other and victims of comparison. We're all undercharging and comparing ourselves and resistant to being the most expensive. What if you broke the norm for your industry, what if you led the way? As yoga teachers, soul-led entrepreneurs we are doing what we do because we are passionate about our profession and want to use our gifts and skills to help people. And getting tangled into feeling bad about asking for money for this is why you're undercharging and heading for burnout. I know none of what I say today is easy, but let it go in, and then do me a favour, go back over your facts and figures and I'll put money on the fact you need to charge more! Add into the mix it is virtually impossible to do this stuff alone, yet that's what we opt for.

Eek I won't lie today's episode isn't an easy discussion to have, but you know me I am here for it all, and sometimes we need to hear the difficult things. I had a lovely teacher reach out on Instagram who's experiencing a situation that ALL of us would feel rubbish about, including myself. It's that topic of contrast, the stuff we don't want to experience. But it's the stuff we need, I'm going to say it's the stuff that gives birth to our dreams! When something happens that is causing us a problem, pain or discomfort, there's only so long we can carry on and ignore it. It's there to help us grow, develop and move on to that next bigger thing. I know how easy it is to be annoyed with all the ‘free' yoga out there. But what if there's room for us all, the free classes, the paid classes, the lower and the higher priced? What if free yoga meant that people who can't afford to come to a paid class can do yoga, that has to be a good thing. It doesn't mean you have to give away free yoga, but it's not the reason why you are struggling to fill your paid offers. Charge what you want for your yoga classes, be the most expensive kid on the block, give away a free weekly class and everywhere in between. It doesn't matter, what matters you are behind you and what you do. I am grateful for all the free yoga out there (sorry guys if that's not what you wanted me to say!)

I feel like I've been promising you this episode for a while! Today I share my experiences of owning two yoga studios, and the good, the bad, and the ugly truth of it all. I completely understand the desire of owning your own space and all the joy that this can bring, but DO NOT sign on the dotted line until you know your numbers. The yoga studios smashing it in 2024 are the ones going beyond the scope of a weekly schedule, they're the ones that are building a community around the physical space, and who then buy into everything the studio has to offer. If you are a studio owner or are thinking of embarking on setting up a studio and would like my help, you can hear from today's episode I know what I'm talking about drop me an email at info@amy-yoga.com and we can discuss how best I can help you know your numbers, and create a plan for success.

Today's episode is inspired by the wisdom of Stephen Braybrook, aka the Movement Man, who lost his battle to Pancreatic cancer way too young in 2023. I trained with Stephen a handful of times but he was one of those people who left a HUGE imprint on me and his relentless questioning of conventional wisdom when it came to how the human body actually worked backed up with sound scientific research lit me up! His advice that never left me - “break a norm”. It ties into one of my favourite sayings ‘definition of madness is doing the same thing expecting a different result'. Whatever you are stuck or frustrated with, whatever you want to change right now if you don't break a norm and do something different from what you are currently doing then stuck is where you will stay. Mentoring for Yoga Teachers If you're a yoga teacher I ask you to break a norm and instead of doing more training I invite you to invest in my mentoring programme, this will really make a difference to your skill as a teacher and a business owner. Not to mention it is a 100-hour accredited further training course. My flagship Prosperous Yogini Mentoring programme doors are open from 22nd to 30th April. I welcome cohorts 2 times a year to develop their skills as yoga teachers and business owners.

We all need support, especially when working with the human body and in therapeutic modalities, just like yoga teachers and other bodyworkers do. We all need to be guided in refining and developing teaching skills, and inspired with new ideas and approaches, We all need someone who will know the answers to those business questions that are not covered in foundation yoga teacher training courses. We all need someone who can help compassionately guide us through the wobbles of the mind to reach our full potential. We all need someone who we can bounce ideas off, who has been where we are now and can use all that experience to guide us. I think you all need me in your life! Mentorship should be industry standard for yoga teachers, I truly believe it is madness that so many teachers choose to go it alone after investing hours of time and money in training to be a yoga teacher. I learnt to value of support and guidance from my years spent in secondary education. We can look to other therapeutic modalities and see that ongoing support is the norm. If you're a yoga teacher hold off from doing another training course, although my mentoring programme is also 100-hours of further training and say yes to the support you've been looking for.

Welcome to part 3 of my 3-part series where I am exploring 3 of the 7 energy centres, the Chakras, and how they relate to how we feel and the actions we take. The heart and root centres support us to open the throat centre, and here is where we do all our talking, aka marketing and selling! The throat centre, also known as the Vishuddhi Chakra, governs our vocal cords, it's where we communicate. Think of all the places where you use words and communicate in your business, from both the written to the spoken form. Feeling able to stand in our power and speak our truth from the throat centre will make talking to people, communicating, building connections and telling people about our offers, aka selling, flow with far more ease. The throat centre is so important to us entrepreneurs! It's why I decided to focus on this energy centre for my FREE master class coming up, details are below, and yes there is a replay: Magical Marketing Mastery Masterclass Join me, for FREE, Thursday 18th April at 7.30pm, for 60 minutes of throat charka activation, and practical, actional ways you can market your business and sell with more ease.

Welcome to part 2 of my 3-part series where I am exploring 3 of the 7 energy centres, the Chakras, and how they relate to how we feel and the actions we take. This week it's the big one, the powerful one, my favourite one! The heart centre, also known as the Anahata Chakra. This is the seat of our unconditional love, the place where we create. Anahata means unstruck sound, the sound already exists, it is yet to be heard, yet to be created, but the energy of it is there ready and waiting. All sound is created by two objects striking together, the heart centre is where this sound manifests. Put simply it's where we create from, supported by the stability of our roots, when we truly tap into the hollering of the heart ain't nothing going to stop us! Before heading off into action, before deciding to say yes, pause and feel into your heart, and be guided by this energy, heart frequency is the most powerful energy we have. Magical Marketing Mastery Masterclass I am loving all this chakra energy work, the heart and root centres support us to open the throat centre, and here is where we do all our talking, aka marketing. Join me, for FREE, Thursday 18th April at 7.30pm, for 60 minutes of throat charka activation, and practical, actional ways you can market your business and sell with more ease.

Welcome to the first of my 3-part series where I am going to explore 3 of the 7 energy centres, the Chakras, and how they relate to how we feel and the actions we take. The more I practice yoga and run my business, the more I see the interconnectedness of it all. If energy is everything, how can we work with the energy and move in harmony with our unique energy systems to better inform the actions we take? Within the practice of Yoga, some traditions work with the 7 energy centres located on the central channel of the spine. The root chakra, Muladhara, is located at the base of the spine. This is the energy of stability, connecting us to our roots down to the earth beneath us. Through this connection, we can utilise the earth to support us and discharge any energy that is not ours or is no longer serving us. The root chakra is the seat of our Kundalini Shakti, the powerful serpent energy of creation, think about what may mean in terms of your creative endeavours in your business! Grounding ourselves, and giving time to connect to our roots, helps to support us in the actions we take and in the navigation of external forces that can interrupt our intended plans. Walking barefoot on the grass, rooting through the pelvis when seated and supine relaxation practices all help us to connect to this energy and work with it effectively. Below are all the ways we can hang, but eyes peeled for next week, along with part 2 of Charkas for your business I have some very exciting news about my new free masterclass!

I am in the process of starting something new after a deep knowing, and a whole host of signs from the universe! If you have an established business you'll know how hard it can be to break that norm and to do something new, when you've spent so long crafting your persona. Or perhaps you're employed but have this calling to do something else, and it has absolutely nothing to do with your current reality! All of it is hard. All of it throws our beautiful brain into panic mode, cue imposter syndrome, fear of rejection and worse the fear of ridicule. But it hits a point for us all where the pain of keeping it inside and to ourselves becomes greater than the pain of non-action. So today I am very excited to announce my new branch, the start of my new services supporting ALL female serviced-based entrepreneurs, and anyone else who likes my vibe, to share their gifts with the world and make money! I am bringing together all my years of experience as a yoga teacher, educator, mentor and business owner, to support you to work with the feminine and masculine energies. Energy is everything, but better put energy leads everything, and it's time to do things differently. It's time to work the energy, the unseen, to better navigate our mind so we can take aligned action. And I can help you with all of it, after all, it's all interconnected! This is a big invitation to join my new Substack community here – https://energymindsetmoneyandmore.substack.com/ Join for free, or be part of the energy exchange and buy me a coffee and cake for £4.40 a month. I am still very much Amy-Yoga, offering outstanding training courses and my flagship mentoring programme, but this is my new branch, and I can't keep all the amazing work I've been doing with female yoga teachers to just them anymore!

It is 4 years to the day when my in-person studio-based yoga business shut down literally overnight! Today I wanted to share with you the new branch to my offering, but it's not quite ready. However, if you are female, in business or want to start one, want to do more of what you love and make money - all I can say is WATCH THIS SPACE! Everything happens for a reason and this episode was needed today, it reminded me of all that has changed and all that is possible. Nothing is stronger than the vibration of the heart, nothing was going to take away the business I'd spent 10 years at that point building. The offer of money from my mum to tie me over the 12 weeks of lockdown (boy we had no idea), gave me so much fire in my belly to not sit back and worry about buying loo roll, but transform my cash-based in-person business, with no email marketing, low key social media and to be honest no idea how this online course world worked to where it is today. I've blown my own mind in terms of what I have created! Remember the light in my shines in you and creation from the heart space is available to us all, whatever that may be. I've also learnt to let go, not be attached to outcomes and importantly take crazy messy action, without perhaps fully knowing the plan, the universe does though! I'm using all my years of experience to help you do the same, here's how we can work together: Mentoring for Yoga Teachers Make sure your name is on the waitlist for my Prosperous Yogini Mentoring Programme.

Today I am joined by the lovely Claire who trained with me last year to be a yoga teacher and is now working on growing her yoga business and refining her teaching skills inside my mentoring programme. Claire is leading the way as to what is possible in your first year of teaching. An amazing opportunity to teach yoga within her workspace has helped Claire to connect to her ‘why'. Having suffered from workplace anxiety, Claire knows the power of yoga, the power of breath work and mindfulness within the workplace. I hope we move to a world where wellness in the workplace is standard. And if this way of working interests you then connecting with local businesses and putting together your bespoke wellness package for them is a great way to work as a yoga teacher or other wellness entrepreneur. Claire's story should inspire you all to consider work beyond the scope of offers to the public. Follow Claire on Instagram here - https://www.instagram.com/yoga_with_clairej/ Corporate wellness is on the rise, are you ready to be part of this movement, remember my mantra “Make offers, make money”!

I cannot believe the serendipity of this week's episode after last week, where I spent 30-plus minutes persuading you to set up that email list! I get it, using social media feels like the easiest option, most of us use Facebook and Instagram, so it feels very doable when it comes to using it in our business. I do believe that you should use social media and I am massively grateful to both Facebook and Meta for providing what is effectively a free platform to grow my community and sell my offers. There is an awful lot that is good about social media. But you have to be fully aware it is borrowed land, and you can lose your account at any time, even if you have 2-step authentication set up. Regardless of how big or small your account is. No one is protected from waking up one day and finding all of it gone. This is exactly what happened to a teacher in my mentoring programme this week. Her account was hacked, she did have 2-step authentication set up and she did lose her personal account of 17 years, along with her business pages. It is devastating for her. But thanks to the support in our mentoring programme and some epic advice from her mentoring (aka me), this event is now something that is positive. This event is now something that is causing a fresh new wave of visibility and marketing into her yoga business. And who doesn't want this? This is the power of mentorship. This is why mentorship should be the industry standard for all yoga teachers. This is why all women in business, all female serviced-based entrepreneurs need support. We are not meant to navigate these moments alone!

Today's episode on the surface is all about the importance of having a mailing list, and there is lots of really easy actional advice today, but it is also about how our mindset is probably the real reason we are struggling to take action. If you are just on social media, you are not only on borrowed ground, but yes you are largely shouting into the void, so please stop! Not to mention if you are creating content for social media why are you not re-purposing into email marketing? This fantastic question from a yoga teacher with a list of 114 is a brilliant example of why possibly you've found many reasons why you can set up your mailing list or if you've ticked that box why right now you don't have the time to focus on growing it, connecting and selling through it. Because your beautiful brain is in the way, telling you you're not tech savvy, telling you it's lots of work and trying its best to keep you safe. And yes that will mean taking no action in the direction of your dreams! Email marketing is something we can all do, for free, and in most cases in the best way you can talk directly to your tribe!

Yesterday was 14th February, Valentine's Day, and following a post that caught your attention about self-love and self-care, today's episode is a half-term short one on the importance of self-love! Are you self-employed, whether it be full or part-time? If you can't provide your services does your business stop? If you answer yes to the two questions above today's episode is a very powerful message. You are the golden goose in your business and need protecting at all costs! As I've said for a long time a stressed yoga teacher is not a good look. But this is not just an episode for female yoga teachers. Today's episode is for every female serviced-based entrepreneur working in a business of one, aka just them. Who is over-delivering, over-giving, under-charging and wondering how to sustain this, let alone grow any further into that business that is tugging at their heartstrings? The request to love ourselves can feel tough, but what if we reframe this to caring for ourselves is essential for us to care for those who buy our services, or come to our yoga classes? Caring for ourselves is also essential to all the other people in our lives we care for. And it doesn't have to mean big sudden changes, it can start with making 5, or 10 minutes in your diary each week just for you. The small stuff adds up to the big stuff! Investing in yourself, and acknowledging that trying to run your business alone is madness is also an act of self-love.

Back in mid-January, I ran the brilliant “Profitable Yoga Business Roadmap Masterclass and Coaching Call”. Teachers from all stages of their teaching career joined me for this, including a few fresh out of their foundation teacher training course. We all know that feeling when we start anything new, it can feel like there's so much to do and learn. That feeling of rabbit in headlights comes to mind! Firstly, I want you all to know that we all start from the beginning and doing anything new at any stage of your business will bring up these feelings. In this episode I answer some great questions from those newly qualified yoga teachers who joined the “Profitable Yoga business Roadmap” and I know many of these questions and my answers will be of use to you all. I also love answering your questions on my podcast, so if there's anything you'd like me to answer on my podcast do send me your questions to info@amy-yoga.com. Mentoring for Yoga Teachers Questions about yoga teaching and running your yoga business come up at every stage of your career. It is madness that we attempt to run our yoga business alone. I truly believe mentoring should be the industry standard. I believe in a yoga industry where we are all needed and we all can thrive, and this comes from a place of support.
