In this compelling episode of The New Beyond, I sit down with Radha Metro-Midkiff, Executive Director of the Integral Yoga Institute of New York, to explore a fascinating and transformative topic: the intersection of yoga and leadership. Radha shares her incredible journey—from being raised in an ashram to navigating the high-stakes world of Wall Street, and eventually returning to her roots to lead one of the most renowned yoga institutions in the country.

What You’ll Learn:

The life lessons Radha learned growing up in a yogic family and attending a unique yoga school.
How Radha’s early experiences shaped her approach to leadership and resilience.
The challenges and triumphs she faced working in corporate America post-9/11 and how she found her way back to yoga.
How yoga principles like mindfulness, discipline, and self-awareness serve as a foundation for effective leadership.
Radha’s perspective on balancing paradoxes—embracing both softness and strength, detachment and commitment, self-care and service.
How yoga and leadership align to create a holistic approach to personal and professional growth.

Highlights of the Episode:

Radha’s reflections on her unique upbringing in an ashram and the profound sense of grace and belonging she felt.
Her challenges in adapting to the "real world" after growing up in such a nurturing, yet insulated, environment.
The powerful role leadership training played in helping her confront and process her trauma from 9/11.
How she uses leadership principles to inspire others and reframe yoga as a lifestyle and mindset, not just a physical practice.
A moving discussion on the healing power of facing one’s fears and trauma, and how the only way out is through.

Quotes to Remember:

"You can either have fear, or you can have faith. There is no in-between."
"The only way out is through."
"Yoga isn’t just what we do on the mat; it’s how we live our lives, how we lead, and how we show up for ourselves and others."
