Coming Back to Your Why as a Yoga Studio Owner with Arundhati Baitmangalkar

“Until you find your why, everything else is external.” – Arundhati Baitmangalkar
What happens when you build a studio without a business plan—but with a rock-solid purpose? In this episode of Yoga Biz Champ, I sit down with Arundhati Baitmangalkar, the founder of Aham Yoga and host of the Let's Talk Yoga podcast, to talk about the deep-rooted why behind everything she does.
We go beyond the surface of yoga studio ownership and get into what really sustains a teacher or studio owner long-term. From teaching her first community class to leading international trainings, Arundhati’s clarity around her mission—to teach and be of impact—is what’s kept her grounded, energized, and successful for over a decade.
In this honest, heart-forward conversation, we talk about:
• How your “why” becomes your compass when everything else feels unclear
• Why she started small—and why that was her biggest advantage
• Moving from yoga teacher to team leader with integrity
• Redefining boundaries, burnout, and what success actually looks like
• Creating content and showing up online in a way that feels aligned
• How to build systems, not chaos, even if you’re a one-person show
• Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, over it, or just overthinking your next move—this episode is your nudge to come back to your why.
