Yoga has worked on the barter system since the beginning. “I’ll trade my service for your wisdom.” I’ve been part of workstudy programs since I started training as a teacher and a practitioner.

As a former yoga studio owner we had a dynamic workstudy program and even a live-in intern role.  In this show I talk with Rachel Peters  who is the Team Leader of the Yogahealer + Yoga Health Coaching workstudy program, which we call Paths to Leadership. Find out how Rachel stepped into workstudy with me and took over and grew the program with a team. We have 55 workstudies under contract and continue to grow the program.

I rap with Rachel Peters about Growing a Workstudy Program

• How structure precedes evolution
• What Vulnerability looks like on the Dharmic Path
• The evolution of workstudy program into collective leadership

BIO:

 Rachel recently left an academic administrative position of almost twenty years to dedicate herself more fully  to helping others tap into their purpose, align their habits with their deeper wisdom while redefining their relationship with time.  She is super stoked to be the Coaching Team Manager for Yogahealer & Yoga Health Coaching. This merges her savvy admin skills with her love of conscious business.

She’s an entrepreneur, a mother, a wife and a lover of wild places.
