With a life devoted to exploration, Erica facilitates nature-inspired yoga and mindful experiences. She co-founded Yoga Trade in 2012, driven by her devotion to regenerative living and connecting the global wellness community.We dive into Erica's journey, asking what about the practice of yoga led her to pursue a full-time career in the industry. Erica shares her path from being a mountain athlete to deeply immersing herself in yoga due to injuries. She explains that Yoga Trade was born out of a genuine desire to give back and a passion project without a formal business plan. This authentic sense of wanting to serve the world laid the foundation for Yoga Trade.The conversation transitions to the seasonal lifestyle that Erica has embraced. After college, Erica initially pursued a business career but quickly shifted to seasonal mountain jobs to fuel her passion for skiing and snowboarding. Over time, she developed a pattern of working in winter and summer jobs, and traveling for short periods during spring and fall. Erica reflects on how this lifestyle led to burnout and the realization that she longed for a stable community and purposeful life.We also discuss the profound impact of nature on one's well-being and the importance of mindful travel. Erica shares her belief that being in nature helps clear the mind, open the heart, and connect with the source of life.

Erica Hartnick is the founder of the website Yoga Trade. Erica grew up in the Sierra Nevada foothills in Nevada City, CA, and she realized pretty quickly after graduating from college that an office environment was not the right fit for her. She took to the mountains and from that point forward dedicated her life to one that included being in the outdoors and traveling. She has spent years teaching snowboarding, yoga and surfing between the States, Central America and Asia, and during this time, two things became very clear to her: there was a real need for an easier way to find teaching opportunities and for employers to locate interested instructors. It was out of this observation that Yoga Trade was born. Erica has spent much of her life creating her own path and is now working to help others do the same.  Features Let it Be by The Beatles
