The Art & Business of Meditation
Empowering meditation teachers, coaches, creators & spiritual guides to make an authentic impact and meaningful income in the wellness & coaching industry. (And do it with integrity.)
I share this podcast as someone who quit a corporate job in 2015 to go full-time as a meditation teacher. It took me over four years to learn how to make my way and support myself financially. I’ve learned some things along the way and intend to help you navigate your spiritual, creative, & entrepreneurial journey.

The Problem In The Spiritual Coaching World
In this episode, I share an issue I see in the coaching industry. Making money doing what you love is an essential part of building a business. However, what can happen is we get off-center when we focus too much on the money or try to make money as fast as we can. This can be a slippery slope. I hope this helps remind you of the deeper purpose for what you're doing. I also share about Meraki Mastermind. If you're interested, send me an email.
