Description

Today’s media landscape - which equates leadership with certainty of opinion, popularity, or charisma - can be challenging for yoga teachers to navigate. So today, hosts Tiffany and Rachel explore what leadership can look like in the yoga world.  We discuss the importance of humility and vulnerability, the challenge of balancing evidence-based with more traditional inputs, and whether there are different expectations of yoga teachers than there are of other roles in our communities. Listen in as we explore the kind of leadership that lifts everyone up.  Show Notes: Confusing certainty or popularity for true leadership [2:57] Humility as a central quality of good leadership [13:06] The kind of leadership we need can change over time [20:53] Balancing evidence-based with traditional inputs [22:49] Finding your compass as a leader [25:54] Service & Ego: expectations of yoga teachers versus other occupations [33:58] Pressure for yoga teachers to project perfection [39:46] Balancing leadership and vulnerability [51:32] Key takeaways [54:42] Links Mentioned: Watch this episode on YouTube Yoga Medicine Podcast Episode 88: Social Media Marketing Made Easy You can learn more about this episode, and see the full show notes at YogaMedicine.com/podcast-90.
