Episode notes

Tara Stiles (@tarastiles) has had a huge impact on my life and career ever since the day I walked into Strala, her yoga studio in Soho, in 2012. Tara is who I got my yoga teacher training certification with, and I was lucky to make her a heart bowl breakfast and even share a recipe in “Make your own rules cookbook.”

Tara Stiles is one of the first people to start sharing yoga videos on YouTube, a bestselling author, and founder of a global yoga training business that’s radically different.

There is presence, ease and quiet wisdom about Tara, and I’m excited to share this business-focused conversation to you.

In this episode, we cover:

Why it’s important to carve your own path in business instead of a cookie cutter approach
How working at a Pizza Hut and doing ballet led Tara to yoga
Tara’s business trajectory and current business model of Strala Yoga
How she became one of the first yoga teachers on YouTube in 2007
How to overcome criticism and stand for what you believe in
How to make burnout impossible
Path of you over path of yoga
Trusting the unknown
Why to “find your thing” as a conscious entrepreneur, it’s important to release the need to “have a thing”
Why Tara said no to venture capital
The trap of social media and how to stay true to yourself
Social media as an open channel to being of service
