Amy and Janet have a unique conversation about the corporate Field of Change Management, as Janet is a Change Management Consultant. Surprisingly, Janet has been able to bridge her management consultant job in corporate America with her deep knowledge of the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali. In fact, this has become her differentiating factor and she is proud to state it on her Linked In profile. And one more surprise, Janet is the daughter of a Christian Minister that loves Jesus, and also teaches Vedic Chanting in the South! This interview is full of heart and soul. It will make you believe that anything is possible. And it will give you hope and faith that you are on the right path. Just keep slowly moving forward with support and guidance from trusted mentors.· Janet explains the corporate filed of Change Management and why Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra is so perfect as the lens for her work.· She explains that leadership is often impatience, overly busy and taxed and they move on to the next project before the organization and employees even know that a change has happened. This leaves no time for people to buy in and see why the change is necessary to the health of individuals and the organization.· Her work includes a lot of listening, empathy mapping, identifying why the change is important – which is exactly what we do with our clients as yoga therapists. She is practicing yoga therapy at an organizational level and with the individuals inside the organization.· Janet describes how she came to understand her calling. She says that at some point she could no longer deny who she has become. She accepted the assignment to be authentically herself and shine brightly.· Janet describes What is Freedom, What is Faith and What is Inner Knowing.· She talks about how healing requires relinquishing that which we once felt was precious (but was mostly causing us suffering) and what it means to grieve as we come to a new understanding of our true nature.· Last, Janet talks about her life purpose of making yoga therapy more inclusive, breaking down barriers and obstacles, and how her ancestors are living through her to propel her into this new version of herself.· Janet has raised 2 kind, confident, intelligent, and resilient daughters. She is on the Board of IAYT and has served on the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Task Force for IAYT.
