Listen "061: Jess Dohnt on Managing + Owning a Yoga Studio"
Episode Synopsis
Jess Dohnt tried yoga for the first time over 10 years ago and didn't love it. If you had told her 10 years ago that she would be a yoga studio manager, owner + teacher, she wouldn't have believed you! After a bad injury, Jess discovered her love of yoga and hasn't looked back since. On this episode, Jess shares her experience as a yoga teacher + yoga studio manager and what she learned through her years managing a successful studio, including hiring yoga teachers, scheduling classes, and creating a community. Six months ago, Jess took the leap into studio ownership with 2 other teachers, and she shares the ups and downs of owning a yoga studio and what she's learned over the last 6 months. We chat about burnout, wearing multiple hats, what it's like to own a small business, the lesson of asking for help, and so much more. Enjoy!
