What you need to succeed tbh
If you’re looking to build a sustainable, scalable business, Impact is the best place to start. Andy and the team are incredible. You get a full team of coaches supporting you across the board, from direction on next steps, to content creation, reviewing offers, monetization, business strategy, tech support, and even mindset support. They genuinely care and want to see you succeed, and the community is a big part of that experience. Something I really value about Andy specifically is that he is a businessman, not a yoga teacher. I’m a yoga teacher, I don’t need help teaching yoga, I need help building a business. Impact teaches business in a way that is clear, structured, and scalable, and it works beyond just the yoga space. They give you multiple layers of support: live coaching calls where you can get direct feedback, a full course with video and written trainings that break everything down clearly, and templates that make implementation much easier. They also have their own platform, Impact Studio, which makes hosting and organizing your offers really user-friendly and seamless. I’ve been in the industry for nearly 12 years, and I genuinely wish I had found Impact sooner. I think I would have built a much stronger foundation earlier if I had implemented what I’m learning now years ago. I’m grateful I’m doing it now, because it really feels like it’s setting me up for the kind of business I actually want long term. Most recently, I also had the opportunity to attend a live in-person mastermind workshop with Andy. I know he hosts a few of these around the world each year, and if you get the chance to attend, I 100% recommend it. It was incredibly valuable. At the one I attended, he offered a few free one-on-one sessions to the first people who signed up, and I was lucky enough to secure one. That session alone was extremely impactful and gave me a lot of clarity and direction. That said, a few honest disclaimers: First, I don’t think this is for you if you have zero clarity on what you want to do as a yoga teacher or business owner. They do help you refine your direction and niche, but having at least some sense of what you want to build will help you get the most out of it. Second, this takes time. If you’re in a really busy life season, you may feel overwhelmed trying to keep up. I personally wish I had joined during a slower season where I could fully focus and implement everything. You’ll get the most out of it when you can actually dedicate consistent time and energy. Third, you need to be ready to show up on social media, especially Instagram, if you’re building an online business. I enjoy social media, so this wasn’t an issue for me, but it’s important to be honest about it. Consistency here matters. It’s ok if you aren’t already, they will teach you how… BUT you need to be ready to commit to this. An additional note I would add is around expectations and timing. This is not a “make money fast” type of program in the way people sometimes think. It is more accurately a “build a scalable business faster with the right systems” type of process. You will absolutely move faster and with more clarity by following what they teach, but it still takes time to implement, build, and grow everything properly. I think it’s important to go in with a long-term mindset and be willing to invest both financially and energetically into that process. The results are absolutely worth it, but this is about building something sustainable, not instant outcomes. And lastly, lean into the community. When things feel challenging, don’t disappear. Speak up and ask for support, because they really are there to help you through it. I also want to acknowledge that I came into this with some hesitation because I’ve had past experiences with business coaches that were predatory and left me in difficult financial situations. I had a bit of “business coach trauma” going into this. But I can honestly say I’ve felt very supported, held, and cared for by Andy and the team, and it’s been a really healing and positive experience in that way. Overall, I feel grateful to be working with them, and I genuinely feel like I’m being set up with the tools and systems I need to build the business I want long term.
