In the first episode of The Profit Boss for 2026, Tegan is joined by Alyse, owner of Inflow Pilates Studios on the Sunshine Coast, for a conversation about growth, risk, and building a profitable wellness business.

Alyse shares her journey from studio manager to business partner, and ultimately buying out her co-founder to become the sole owner of a multi-studio Pilates brand. Together, they unpack what actually drives profitability in a service-based business, from community and brand longevity to understanding your numbers and making confident decisions during periods of change.

This episode covers:

  • What makes a Pilates studio stand out in a crowded market
  • The realities of scaling and taking on higher overheads
  • Buying out a business partner and navigating tough negotiations
  • Why understanding your numbers changes everything
  • How Alyse manages wellbeing while running a fast-growing business
