From Financial Pressure to Leading Retreats in Bali
Karla
Yoga Teacher & Transpersonal Therapist, Costa Rica
BACKGROUND
Karla had built a successful yoga community in Costa Rica through her popular jungle yoga program. Alongside teaching regular yoga classes, she also worked as a transpersonal therapist.
THE CHALLENGE
While her work was meaningful, she felt financial pressure and wasn't sure where to focus her energy to create the next chapter of her career.
INTENTION
To gain clarity on her career path, and discover how to turn her dream of hosting transformational retreats into reality.
FUTURE VISION
In her future vision, she saw herself leading retreats across Asia, combining personal transformation with cultural exploration — supported by close friends who helped bring these experiences to life.
MESSAGE FROM FUTURE SELF
Continue teaching yoga — rather than her final destination, she realized it was the bridge that would connect her with people from around the world who would become future collaborators. And: don't take everything so seriously; let joy be your primary guide.
RESULT
Just one month later, an American therapist booked a private yoga session with Karla while visiting Costa Rica. They discovered they shared the same vision and quickly began planning together. Within the same year, they successfully hosted their first retreat, centered around the theme of joy and play as healing. Today, they're preparing to lead their next retreat together in Bali.
