Yoga Teacher Talk is a series dedicated to all things related to new, current, or aspiring yoga teachers with the hope to spark conversation at the YBC Yoga Forum, where we have a space for current and aspiring yoga instructors to chat. This week's post comes from Rachael Cook, the founder of The Yogipreneur. Racheal Cook is a green smoothie enthusiast, restorative yoga advocate, and business strategist who works with yogi-hearted entrepreneurs to create more ease and less stress in their business.
