Alexander Corsini is the Founder and CEO of Alex's Awesome Sourdough. After discovering sourdough's unique health benefits following an autoimmune diagnosis in 2016, he set out to build a brand celebrating all things sourdough fermentation.

You can start by sitting down and thinking about a time when you were the best version of yourself. Then reflect on what the circumstances where at that point. If you cannot come up with a time you were the best version of yourself. Then it is an opportunity to explore and take risks to test out what it takes to be the best version of yourself. If you right now in time is the best version of yourself then congratulations my friend. That joyful situation means you have a responsibility to yourself and society to nurture this state so you can continue to stay in this wonderful situation and contribute to others. The best time to fix your roof is when it is not raining.

The vast majority of yoga teachers are freelancers, teaching at multiple studios and gyms. And following your favorite teacher can mean navigating multiple websites for access to classes and events. What if there was a platform where you could follow your favorite teachers and studios, getting all of your information in one place? And what if you could make a small investment in the platform, owning a part of the startup that is creating that community? Alexander Klein is the co-founder and CEO of Yoga Trail, a global yoga network that connects yogis with their favorite teachers in an effort to make the world a healthier and happier place. The platform provides yoga teachers with free tools to manage and grow their business, while students can find and book classes online in one convenient location. Alexander has a diverse background that ranges from punk musician to sound engineer to plasma physicist. After a failed attempt to build a fusion reactor that would provide the planet with unlimited clean energy, Alexander had the opportunity to travel with his wife for a year. They got hooked on yoga during their first stop in India and sought out yoga classes in every new country along the way. Alexander’s wife got the idea for Yoga Trail in 2008, and after sitting in on a business course at the University of Thailand, they launched the platform in 2012. Today, Alexander shares his take on learning to live with less, explaining how his approach to life fits with his experience in plasma physics. He speaks to the specifics of the Yoga Trail platform, discussing how it works to empower teachers to run their businesses independently.
