This week on the podcast, I am joined by Brett Larkin! Brett is a yoga teacher, a yoga teacher trainer, and the founder of Uplifted Yoga, an online yoga and meditation community empowering students to personalize their practice and ignite their best life on and off the mat.

She’s instructed at top studios, companies like Google and Pinterest, and leads the world’s most interactive Online Yoga Teacher Training programs. She teaches to a social media following of over 400K people and her content on YouTube is streamed for 3 million minutes each month.

Brett has been teaching online for years now and she’s here to share what her career has been like, how she built a successful online business, tips for yoga teachers looking to create online yoga programs, and everything she’s learned along the way. Enjoy!

Enjoy!
