This week on the podcast I am joined by Dania Valladares. Dania is the co-founder and CEO of CoachPals. Dania's love for science and yoga led her to discover her passion of using technology to make an impact on people's health and wellbeing. As a computer scientist, mother, and human being, Dania is committed to developing innovative features and leverage cutting-edge technology to support an environment that focuses on empowering valuable connections, on making wellness services and products available and discoverable to those who need it, and rewarding supportive and inspiring communities of individuals. This is what CoachPals is all about! In this episode of the podcast, Dania shares where the idea for CoachPals came from, what it's been like building a software platform that is essentially a social media platform and what she's learned through the process. We also discuss the importance of networking in the yoga industry, why it's important as an entrepreneur, how CoachPals is changing the game for yoga teachers who want to network, and more.

Enjoy!
