We had the good fortune of connecting with Destiny Rene and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Destiny, is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
The most important factors behind the success of my brand Destiny Rene Yoga is my own mental, physical and spiritual well being. This year really showed me the importance of self care, and how important it is to be in tune with my physical health. Making sure I exercise , and eat the best foods that nourish my mind, body and spirit , and taking care of my mental well being. Meditation and yoga are so important but they are not enough after the year we just had. I had to learn to be ok with asking for help. I made a decision to get a coach to keep me on track with my business. This really helped me created goals that would keep me moving forward in my business. Taking the time to tap in spiritually and work on my relationship with God has been such an important factor. This year taught me I am nothing with out my creator. Growing closer to my spirituality has helped me to renew my mind daily, so I can continue to show up as the best version of my self. Having that close support from family and friends has been vital to my success.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Yoga is my passion, and Destiny Rene Yoga is my business. I offer private one on one yoga packages on my website DestinyReneYoga.com. This gives me the opportunity to help my students achieve their goals in a short amount of time. I am dedicated to creating individual plans to help my students achieve success in improving their spiritual , physical and emotional well being. This may include helping a student create a home practice that helps them get over a break up ,stay positive after losing a love one or lose 10 pounds. I think what sets me apart is my education in health, and the fact that I really care about people. I love yoga , but most importantly I love sharing yoga with everyone! I also mentor other yoga instructors, and love teaching at sport team events , health events and group classes. I have been teaching yoga since 2018 , and this has helped me in my business and as a yoga teacher. The success of my yoga business also comes from my education in healthcare, business and marketing. 2020 defiantly brought some challenges, so it has been vital to ask for support and help to continue to grow in an industry that went virtual overnight. One lesson I have learned along the way is to not give up , and continuously make my own well being a priority. My business is a reflection on how well I am taking care of my self. Destiny Rene Yoga is about loving who you are now , and being ok with growing into the best version of your self. I teach my students that this is a process and until you get there you have yoga to help you along the journey. My mission is to help students show theirselves the compassion and love it takes on the mat to do that In hopes they will take it off the mat in their everyday life.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I love visiting JeJu spa , Callway Gardens and taking refreshing hikes throughout the city. I love riding my bike , spending time at the pool or taking a short getaway trip to Florida for the weekend. Lately I have been totally indulging in Boba tea and trying new tea places throughout the city. I am a complete foodie. I love all types of food from ramen to sweet potato pancakes at south city kitchen. I can not get enough of the amazing food atlanta has to offer. Have you seen the view of the city at piedmont park at night it is so beautiful. I enjoy just creating adventures with my friends. Let’s get in the car and just go and see where we end up. Honestly there is nothing like slowing down every chance I get and catching some beautiful views in the midst of the chaos.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My shoutout is for Coach Michelamone’ Henderson we met a few years ago at one of her seminars where she was showing women how to manage their emotions. This year I decided to work with her one on one , and I am so thankful for her. She helped me create goals to better myself, my business and my relationships. I am thankful that she guided me through a healing process I couldn’t have done alone. Just writing this makes me smile. I have seen such a turn around in every aspect of my life. I am also thankful to my family, close friends , and yoga family. I have had so much love and support come from so many people and I couldn’t have done it without them.
