This week on the podcast, I am joined by Tiffany Cruikshank. Tiffany is a world-renowned yogi and the founder of Yoga Medicine. Yoga Medicine is a teaching platform to educate yoga teachers in a blend of both eastern and western models of medicine to ultimately help clients/students treat and manage things like chronic pain and depression through yoga and meditation practices. Tiffany has a pre-med bachelor’s degree in medicinal plant biology and nutrition, a master’s degree in acupuncture and oriental medicine, and a specialty in sports medicine and orthopedics.
On this episode of the podcast, Tiffany and I talk about how she has worked to combine the eastern and western models of medicine to help serve her clients, how she has expanded her business from just in-person work to online courses and programs, as well as training programs around the world. We also talk about the Seva Foundation that she has founded, and all of the business lessons she's learned throughout her career! Enjoy!
This episode is brought to you in part by OfferingTree. When you’re a yoga teacher and you’re trying to build your digital presence it can be daunting. First, you might need a website. There are a lot of great tools for building websites like Wordpress, Wix, and Squarespace. Then you need a way to email your students. Again there are tools for that like mail chimp and constant contact. But that’s another account to pay for and a password to remember. Then you need a way to schedule and register your students. Again there are tools for that, but it’s another account to create and pay for and another password to remember. Oh wait, how do I integrate my scheduling tool with my website… Arghhhh!
