Redefined Yoga | JUN 10, 2024
I have a confession to make.

Despite the success of Redefined Yoga, I have a significant weakness.
It's failure.
Yes, the fear of failure has haunted me for years.
You might think that being a Master Yoga Teacher and Pain Expert makes me immune to such feelings.
But the truth is, I’ve experienced emotional lows that I wouldn’t wish on anyone.
There were days when my back pain was so severe that I felt like a fraud for teaching yoga.
I questioned my abilities and doubted whether my method could really help others.
The fear of failing my clients kept me up at night.
But this fear also pushed me to be better.
It forced me to look deeper into what truly helps improve quality of life.
Through this process, I’ve learned that vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness.
Admitting my fear of failure has made me more empathetic and understanding.
It’s shown me that overcoming obstacles is a shared human experience.
By facing my own failures, I’ve developed a method that’s safe and effective.
Functional Yoga Instruction wasn’t just born out of expertise; it was born out of necessity.
This fear has taught me that it’s okay to stumble, as long as you keep moving forward.
My clients deserve a teacher who understands their struggles and can guide them through them.
If I can overcome my fear of failure, I believe anyone can.
Let’s embrace our imperfections and continue to improve together.
