The Power of Investing in Yourself with Colynn Vosburgh

Listen on iTunes or Download Here.

This week on the podcast I am joined by Colynn Vosburgh from Frik-Shuhn Yoga. Colynn came to yoga from a nursing background, and after discovering her love of teaching, she quit nursing and med school to dive into teaching full-time. From there, she transitioned into teaching yoga teachers and working as a business coach.

On this episode, we dive into the power of investing in yourself and how it will pay back once you do it. Investing in yourself can come in a lot of different forms, but we really dive into the power of a great business coach, because part of what helped Colynn dive into her full-time yoga teacher career was hiring a business coach.

We discuss the importance of defining what you want with your life and your career, getting clear on the fears that are holding you back, and how to break through them in order to figure out how to be successful in the yoga industry. We also talk about how to break through limiting beliefs around making money, learning to trust your intuition, and turning your “failures” into steps towards success.

Enjoy!

Business Lessons from this Episode: 

  • If you keep doing what you’ve been doing, you’ll keep getting what you’re getting
  • When you invest in yourself, the money comes back almost immediately
  • Look at what you’re doing and what you’re not doing, what’s working and what’s not working
  • Investing in yourself means that you will show up
  • What do you want??
  • Setting up action steps for what you want to focus on in your life and your career
  • How do you define success? How do you define happiness?
  • When you decide to invest when you have the money, you might never get the money. When you commit to an investment, you’ll pay that money back.
  • There IS money in the yoga industry, but we are taught that we can’t make money unless we are in a “stable, full-time job”
  • Get clear on why you are afraid or scared of making money – what is holding you back?
  • Get to the bottom of what your issues around money are and why they exist
  • Get clear on what you really want out of your life
  • Stop scattering your thoughts and get focused on your goals
  • When you break through your fear, you’ll see that your fear will allow you to dive deeper and get more out of your business
  • Listen to your intuition
  • You can learn from “failures” and allow those to help you move towards to your successes
  • And much more… Here’s the episode!
