My journey from corporate high-flyer to yoga business coach

For 20 years, I’ve thrived in the corporate world — strategy meetings, spreadsheets, deadlines and the constant pressure to perform.

I was successful on paper... but inside, I was running on empty.

I was living for the weekends, burnt out, and questioning if this was really what success was supposed to feel like.
Yoga was my escape.

At first, it was just a quiet hour on the mat — a moment of stillness in a world that never slowed down. But quickly, it became something more.
I didn’t just want to practice yoga. I wanted to live it.

So I trained to teach. Not to quit my job — but to reconnect with myself. To share something that had genuinely changed my life.
One class became a studio, and that studio grew into a movement.

But as I built my own business, I kept meeting yoga teachers who were stuck.
Passionate, talented, and dedicated — yet still hustling between classes, struggling with self-doubt, and unsure how to turn their gift into a career.

I knew there had to be a better way. A path that combined soul and strategy.

I now run a boutique yoga space, mentor teachers around the world, and coach yoga professionals to build aligned, abundant businesses — all while staying active in my corporate role.

Because here’s the thing: I believe in bringing both worlds together.
My business brain didn’t get left behind — I use it every day to help yoga teachers like you step into your full potential.

I created Root to Rise — my business coaching programme that brings yoga teachers the tools, confidence, and business foundations they were never taught in teacher training.

Since then, I’ve helped teachers go from overwhelmed to fully booked, from self-doubt to steady income, from burnout to balance.

And here’s the truth I want you to hear:
You don’t need to choose between your passion and a profitable business.

You can have both — and I’m here to help you build it.

Now it’s your turn.
Are you ready to root into your calling and rise in your business?
