Pay Rates, Raises, and Real Talk

In this raw and honest episode, we dive deep into the uncomfortable yet crucial conversation about money—asking for a raise, setting your rates, pricing workshops, and navigating those tough discussions. Along the way, we get real with some hilarious tangents about MDMA, renunciates, vaping, and counting heads in savasana. We also explore identity and intersectionality, shedding light on the inequities that persist in the yoga world. With full transparency, we share how we handle money in our own business and why open, honest communication about payments is essential for everyone’s growth. This episode is packed with tips for up-leveling your worth, empowering yourself to have difficult conversations, and creating a more equitable space for all in the field.
