In this episode, Amanda Paz shares how AI has revolutionized her business operations and creativity. We discuss the importance of AI tools in managing the administrative and creative aspects of a yoga business, such as content creation, marketing, and class planning. We also delve into practical ways AI can be harnessed to improve efficiency and provide inspiration, allowing yoga teachers to focus more on personal connections and in-person teachings.

Amanda offers insights into how she uses AI to enhance her mentoring of other yoga teachers and her own online programs. We also explore the ongoing need for human touch in yoga and wellness, despite technological advancements.

Meet Amanda:

Amanda Paz's journey to wellness began when she left her marketing and PR career to explore the power of movement, meditation, and nutrition in improving quality of life and performance. Her passion for sports led her to work with top NBA, NFL, and MLB athletes for a decade, using breathwork and yoga to boost their performance and recovery. Over the years, she developed strategies that turned her business into a sustainable six-figure model, granting her the freedom to work from anywhere in the world. In 2021, she launched Yoga Biz Academy, offering coaching programs, courses, and a podcast to help other yoga teachers build aligned and profitable businesses that helped them reach students from all over the world. Her mission is clear: empower wellness professionals to build thriving businesses that help them reclaim their time, increase their income, and amplify their impact.

Yes, you can show up online without becoming a yoga influencer or selling your soul.

Let’s be real—most of the marketing advice out there wasn’t made for yoga teachers.

It was made by business bros who’ve never whimpered through a toe squat in Vajrasana.

If you’ve ever opened Instagram to “do your marketing” and suddenly found yourself deep-cleaning your bathroom instead… this episode is for you.

In this solo episode, I’m sharing:

• Three 'aha' moments I've had from watching the 2025 All Mats Taken Yoga Business Summit presentations

• How to use marketing as an invitation, not a persuasion tactic

• Why your voice is your brand (and perfection is not the goal)

• How to create sustainable visibility without dancing on Reels

And of course — a very exciting announcement:

In this episode, we dive into the joyful world of Ayurveda with Lucy, an Āyurvedic practitioner who shares how this ancient science can bring balance, connection, and deeper insight into a modern yoga practice and life. We explore how to make Ayurveda feel approachable, aligned, and even a little bit fun.

Through touch and tenderness Lucy shares the medicine of this time-tested science in fun and relatable ways. Lucy graduated from the Ayurvedic Institute in Albuquerque, New Mexico USA in 2018 where under the guidance of Dr. Vasant Lad and the most loving of teachers, she found a place in a community devoted to the wisdom of Nature.

In this episode, we cover:

• What Ayurveda actually is (and why it’s not just tongue scraping and porridge)

• The biggest misconceptions around Ayurveda, especially in wellness spaces

• How yoga and Ayurveda complement each other

• How yoga teachers can start weaving Ayurveda into their classes

This one's especially for yoga teachers who want to learn how Ayurveda can support their students, deepen their offerings, and expand their own connection to self and healing.
