In today’s podcast, Rachel Peters and I reflect upon our past experiences at Yogahealer Live Events, and why we feel so refreshed after each and every time. We unravel the feeling of identity evolution and what it means to be a leader by just showing up at the retreats. Just one day at a Live Event has been life changing for so many, so tune in to discover why so many people leave the retreats with an entirely newfound perspective on their lives, and the lives of others.

What you’ll get out of tuning in:

• A deeper look at the benefits of going out of the daily routine of life to experience life through a new lens at the event.
• What it means to become a leader through engaging in this life-changing event.
• An understanding of how we can evolve our community at home through experiencing this retreat.
• Rachel Peters describes that the live Yogahealer events assist her in getting out of her daily routine and comfortability. She fees enabled to step out of her habits and routine and take a few days to look at herself, her life, her business, and her family from a whole new perspective.
• Cate explains that the activities at the retreat are very liberating but structured at the same time. Where people are paired into small groups to do specific types of activities that have their own structure and form. What people often discover is how to get out of their own way in life!
• It’s an amazing opportunity for growth with people who are going through similar struggles in life. It’s a place where we can be vulnerable and dig deep down to understand the hurdles we’re facing in our personal and professional life.
