113 - How to Host Health Retreats Around the World with Maya Fiennes

It’s another beautiful day on The Healthpreneur Podcast! Welcome back to the show. Today, I’m excited to introduce you to Maya Fiennes, a mother, musician, composer, yogi and author who offers both digital products and in-person conferences, trainings, and retreats. She’s a ball of energy whose mission is to help people take the tools taught in yoga and apply them in their day-to-day life. 

 

Maya is also the creator of KundaDance, which blends yoga, dance, music, Tai Chi and Qi Gong into a fun and expressive healing experience. She inspires, uplifts, ignites, energizes and empowers people all over the world with her light and expertise. With today’s ever-evolving digital platforms, Maya has had to grow and change her business model, too.  

 

Tune in as Maya and I discuss how her business and retreat models have changed over the years, and how she’s had to adapt. She also offers deep wisdom in how anyone can learn to focus better and trust fully– and what that looks like in real life beyond the yoga mat.  

 

In this episode, Maya and I discuss: 

The struggles she faced when transitioning into digital platforms.  Her retreat model and how she travels.  The impact her retreats have made on her clients.   The importance of meditation and mantra.  How she’s learned to focus and trust.   The good and bad of technology and social media.
