This week on the podcast I am joined by Meghan Pherrill from Balance by Meghan. Meghan and I had the pleasure of co-leading a retreat together in Costa Rica this past fall and we had a BLAST! While we were on retreat, Meghan led an amazing session on social media, and on this episode, she dives into some of the content that she taught. In this episode, we cover Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, YouTube, LinkedIn and TikTok and how yoga teachers can use each one to their advantage. Meghan has tips for each platform, how to optimize them, why we should be on them as a yoga teacher, and much more. 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!
