Jo Is Beating The Glass Ceiling of Yoga Teachers in The UK

a soulful Substack newsletter with 1,400+ paying subscribers — earning far more than a traditional teaching schedule could bring in, while serving many more people than she could ever fit in a studio.
Her newsletter is about giving tired, overwhelmed people a place to rest, reconnect, and breathe -no yoga mat needed.
And the best part?
The model works for any teacher who wants to share their skills with the world.

✅Content pillars that keep her ideas flowing.
✅Atomic newsletters that hook readers instantly.
✅Videos and live classes that deepen connection.
✅The welcome email that invites new readers into her “Yoga for Tired People” world.
✅And the foundation that holds it all together — her About page and her powerful paid subscriber invitation.
