FROM OUR FOUNDER

A Note from Yogi

When I started this journey over 35 years ago, my goal was simple: to empower individuals with the tools to communicate, lead, and grow with confidence and compassion. Founding two Montessori schools was just the beginning—creating environments where children, parents, and educators could thrive. Through Positive Discipline, Adlerian Psychology, and Montessori Philosophy, I have witnessed firsthand how small shifts in mindset can create profound transformations.

My passion lies in helping people build stronger relationships, whether at home, in the classroom, or in the workplace. I’ve had the privilege of training thousands worldwide, leading immersive workshops, and sharing insights through my podcasts. Every experience has reinforced my belief that with the right guidance and mindset, anyone can unlock their full potential.

Whether you’re a parent seeking respectful communication strategies, an educator striving for a more inclusive classroom, or a leader looking to foster a positive workplace culture—I’m here to support you. Let’s create meaningful change together!
