You can earn credibility by teaching. Offer free classes at first, or for just a small amount - if what you're offering is of value, word will get out! If it comes from your heart, it will be of value, because how many people do you know who are living completely from their heart? It is unique and special - as are you!

I have a friend who moved to WV. Because she's the alternative, new-age type - rare in that state! - she got asked to teach yoga. She knew next to nothing about yoga, had only taken a few classes herself. But she said, "Yes! If you'll pay for my training." They did; she now teaches several classes a week. Yoga was in her heart, and she knew it. If she had waited to say "yes", it wouldn't have happened for her.
