You might be wondering: what does yoga have to do with leadership? As it turns out, everything.
In this episode of The New Beyond, I had the privilege of reconnecting with Radha Metro-Midkiff, Executive Director of the Integral Yoga Institute of New York. Radha’s journey is nothing short of extraordinary—from being raised in a yogic community to working on Wall Street, and eventually finding her way back to her roots to lead one of the most impactful yoga organizations in the country.
In our conversation, Radha shared her story of navigating profound life transitions, including how she used yoga principles to process the trauma of 9/11 and later embraced leadership training to deepen her understanding of resilience, authenticity, and service.
Here are a few nuggets of wisdom you’ll take away from this episode:
The power of merging ancient yogic teachings with modern leadership practices.
Why navigating paradoxes is an essential skill for thriving in today’s world.
How to use yoga not just as a physical practice but as a framework for leading yourself and others.
Radha’s insights will challenge you to think about leadership in a new light and inspire you to integrate the principles of mindfulness, presence, and compassion into your daily life.
