How do you weave your values into your business? How do you market effectively within your own area of focus while still examining and acknowledging power and privilege, which are always at play? How do you stand out in 2024 and beyond, with the ever-changing landscape of online business and the state of the world? These are all questions I had for Tristan Katz and I know you will so appreciate this conversation.

As a longtime student of social movements and social justice, Tristan’s work centers on values-focused content development, the exploration of power, privilege, and oppression, and the intersection between solidarity and marketing.

Yoga and yogic principles are so powerful and exactly what we need in these turbulent times. Yet, the way we've been "sold" yoga in the West truly needs to shift in a way that honours Yoga's true roots and Susanna Barkataki has been leading that shift for years now.

Susanna Barkataki (she/her) has been called “a trailblazing yoga leader and visionary for our times.” An Indian teacher building bridges in the West, she is known for her work in decolonizing and embracing the roots of yoga.

She is a tech founder of Yoke Yoga, a SAAS company to bring yoga socially to all people to help solve everyday problems. She also founded Ignite Institute for Yogic Leadership and Social Change, award winning programs in yoga and wellness, to train students in using authentic spiritual tools to create positive social change.

Legit almost titled this episode "Feeling Blah, HBU?" as this is a real, unfiltered peek into the mess lately. I've been going through what I am now calling "spiritual renovations" as well as business renovations as I prepare to scale...and oh yes, the crumbling of the world that we are all feeling so deeply. I wanted to show you the mess while I am in it and also record it for myself so I can look back at this time when I am in a totally different place. It's wild how quickly things can change and energies shift and I look forward to the time when I say "wow I'm in a totally different place now"...but today is not that day. #WelcomeToMyMess
