Leadership and Yoga so you want to host a yoga retreat: 7 steps to get ready
So you want to host a yoga retreat. Behind every beautiful retreat is a human like you. A yoga teacher navigating money, nerves, imposter syndrome, leadership decisions, and pivots... so I have some yoga retreat planning tips for ya.
In this episode, I’m sharing the real story of hosting my last retreat, the shaky anxiety before it began, the moments where the experience didn’t match my expectations, the double-booked shala, the breakfast pivot, the unexpected abundance, and the leadership lessons that no one talks about.
This is more than “how to host a yoga retreat.” This is about the energetics of hosting, and some stories that will keep you company. :)
