  • So good!

    By far the best Pilates/boutique fitness podcast I’ve listened to. I built my business around Seran’s advice - always straightforward, logical, reassuring, and delivered with grace and ease.

  • Very shallow content

    Very shallow content being thinly spread and looped over and over again. The host is repeating same thing again and again without bringing any new insights. Main point is self promotion. Looks like she’s run of anything new to say a very long time ago!

  • Inspiration to Push Through the Discomfort in Business

    Just listened to the February 3rd episode about accountability and consistency and it was the pep talk I needed! Thank you Seran for the reminder that starting a business required getting uncomfortable and pushing myself forward anyway. I’m a bit less than two years in now and was hitting some serious self doubt as I face new uncertainties that come with growing the business. I needed that reminder that continuing to grow the business requires going through that fear and discomfort each day.

  • A must-listen for studio owners

    Listening to Seran’s episodes and easy-to-apply tips weekly is like having a brilliant brainstorming session with my team: I always get ideas that I’d either not thought of or not dared implement before. And what I love about it is that Seran encourages us to think of our values and vision for an aligned marketing strategy! So grateful for this pod 🙏🏽

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How Smart Studio Owners Are Using AI Without Losing the Human Touch - Walla founder, Laura Munkholm
Q: How should technology fit into developing relationships with clients without eroding human connection?
Technology should highlight opportunities to be more human, not replace personal touches. Features like Audiences help personalize communication, while teachers can send targeted messages or notes to individuals who need attention, keeping the human element front and center.
How Smart Studio Owners Are Using AI Without Losing the Human Touch - Walla founder, Laura Munkholm
Q: What are the strongest operators paying attention to that others may be missing?
Two main lanes: first, repeatable processes enabled by AI to create scalable training materials and standardize frontline tasks; second, data and reporting that are contextual, goal-driven, and easy to act on rather than overwhelming with endless dashboards.
How Smart Studio Owners Are Using AI Without Losing the Human Touch - Walla founder, Laura Munkholm
Q: You've experienced this industry as both a studio operator and in founding Walla Technology Platform. What is something you now know about the tech side that you might not have seen from the studio side?
The biggest takeaway is how underutilized studio software remains and how critical it is to make technology obvious and user-friendly so teams can actually use it. Studios often lack mental space to deeply learn a platform, so the best operators use repeatable processes, training materials, and a clear translator role (either a person or a temporary solution) to implement the right tools effectively.
From 40 Classes a Week to 20 Studios: The Real Truth About Growing a Profitable Pilates Business with Todd Kuhn, Founder of The Core Collab
Q: Okay. So let's go back to the beginning. What was the industry like back then when you opened one of the first group reformer studios in Australia?
The industry was founding and experimental; there was little of a playbook, and we had to figure things out ourselves while focusing on community and service as core differentiators.
The Money Mistakes Boutique Fitness Studio Owners Make Without Realizing It with Danielle Hayden
Q: How should studio owners structure their time around financials?
She advocates short, focused weekly reviews (about 30 minutes) with a leadership team and a more analytical monthly/quarterly review to align finances with growth plans.
