Burnout happens because you care so much that somewhere along the way, you stop taking care of yourself.” If you’ve been feeling tired lately, you’re not alone. On recent coaching calls, Michael Jay has been asking studio owners to rate their energy from 1 to 10. The answers have been surprisingly low. Lots of 3s. Lots of 4s. Even the 7s came with a laugh and a disclaimer. So why are so many community Yoga Studio owners running on empty? In this episode, Michael is joined by former studio owner and consultant Stephanie for an honest conversation about burnout, boundaries, self-care, and what it really takes to sustain yourself while leading a community Yoga Studio. Together they share stories from their own experiences as studio owners, discuss why summer can be an ideal time to reset, and explore the habits, systems, and mindset shifts that help owners protect their energy without losing momentum in their business. The conversation touches on everything from taking time off and finding your personal rhythm to delegating tasks, reconnecting with your own practice, and remembering that the health of a community Yoga Studio starts with the health of its owner. This episode is especially valuable for owners who love their community Yoga Studio deeply but have started to feel exhausted, overwhelmed, or disconnected from the reasons they opened their doors in the first place. In this episode, you’ll learn: • Why so many community Yoga Studio owners are feeling burnt out right now • The warning signs that your energy tank is running low • Why summer can be the perfect season to rest, regroup, and prepare for fall • How dedicated time to work on your Yoga Studio—not just in it—can reduce stress and improve focus • Why delegation, systems, and asking for help are essential skills for community Yoga Studio owners • How finding your own rhythm can improve both your health and your business • Why attending classes as a student can reignite your passion and creativity • The importance of practicing what you preach as the leader of a community Yoga Studio • Simple self-care habits that can help prevent burnout before it starts • Why building a thriving community Yoga Studio begins with taking care of yourself Grab a spot in Michael's calendar for the GROW-A-STUDIO (about:invalid#zCSafez) coaching package.  Get 50% off your first three months of Offering Tree, OR 15% off an entire year with my Exclusive Discount Link Offeringtree.com/yogabizchamppodcast (https://www.offeringtree.com/yogabizc...)
