In this episode, I share practical strategies for designing a teaching schedule that reflects your energy, values, financial needs, and responsibilities outside of work. We'll talk about why it's important to know your ideal weekly and daily schedule, how to decide whether to keep or drop a group class, and why you may need to give a promising class at least six months to grow.
The big takeaway: You can't control every fluctuation in freelance yoga teaching, but you can intentionally build a schedule, business, and teaching practice that become more sustainable over time.
