What does it look like to take your yoga training beyond the studio and into real community care work?
In this episode, Rebecca talks with returning guest Shelly Auld, a wellness coordinator working in a North Minneapolis school district. Shelly shares how she built a program that supports educators and staff through nervous system regulation, co-regulation, and accessible movement—and how that work is already impacting staff retention and wellbeing.
This conversation is a powerful reminder that yoga professionals are needed in schools, healthcare, corporate environments, and beyond. It’s not about the perfect certification—it’s about applying your skills where people actually need them.
