“I’ve been teaching for years and I still feel like I’m faking it.”

If that sounds familiar, I'm here to reassure you: you’re not alone, and you’re not behind.

In this episode, I share the Yoga Teacher Success Timeline, a five-phase framework that helps you name where you are in your growth as a yoga teacher—and understand what’s coming next.

Whether you’re fresh out of teacher training or you’ve been leading classes for years, this roadmap gives you language, perspective, and permission. You’ll learn:

  • The five distinct phases yoga teachers move through
  • Why it’s completely normal to revisit early phases again and again
  • The most common mistake that keeps teachers stuck
  • How to build a class around what you already know how to teach
  • A free resource that helps you move forward with more ease and confidence

🎧 Plus, I’ll share one practical homework assignment to help you apply this right away.
