Meet Rachel
Founder of the Soma school, Soma PWR and Soma power yoga - helping people learn how to elevate their life and business through the power of yoga, somatic, mindset, and no bs strategy.
I am passionate about helping you grow and make an impact .
Rachel Friedman, MSW, E-RYT 500, YACEP, CPT, is a truth-telling guide who awakens practitioners to masterfully share their soul's work through the transformative powers of yoga, somatics, and courageously dismantling outdated paradigms that no longer serve.
This fierce advocate has witnessed firsthand how our bodies contain all the healing codes necessary to shatter limitations and discover what it truly means to live as a radically alive human being. By skillfully guiding people into deeply felt, embodied experiences of their most authentic selves - with zero tolerance for spiritual bypassing or surface-level fixes - she catalyzes lasting transformation.
In her 25+ years as a revolutionary force in the wellness realm, Rachel has guided hundreds through the sacred alchemy of completely transforming their relationship to themselves. Through her unique fusion of somatic mastery and uncompromising energetic work, she ignites profound breakthroughs for souls ready to stop playing small and start living fully.
At the root of Rachel's work is the radical practice of unshaming - transforming trauma from a source of limitation into a wellspring of power and wisdom. Her approach cuts through the noise of quick fixes and pretty platitudes to reach the places where real change happens - in the body, in the nervous system, in the courageous choice to feel everything without carrying shame. She elevates therapists, coaches, yoga teachers, personal trainers, CEOs, and leaders across every field, developing the embodied skills that transform not just their practice, but their capacity to guide others from wound to wisdom.
Armed with her Master's in Social Work from NYU and extensive certifications in yoga and personal training, Rachel brings both clinical expertise and embodied wisdom to every interaction. When she's not guiding transformational experiences, Rachel can be found hiking with her dog, soaking up precious time with her college-aged kids, or snuggling up with her best friend and husband, living proof that the path to authentic freedom begins with coming home to yourself.
Now Rachel's sacred mission is ensuring visionaries like yourself can create deeply impactful work that transforms lives while building sustainable, thriving practices. As someone who has walked this path herself, building a multi-six-figure business through embodied authenticity rather than hustle culture, she knows intimately what it takes to succeed without sacrificing your soul.
Her approach weaves together fierce mindset alignment and somatic embodiment of your inherent worth. This work requires the courage to dismantle every outdated belief about what success must look like, and she will be your unwavering guide as you forge a completely new path.
If you're ready to stop letting fear, conditioning, and limiting beliefs define your potential, Rachel holds the transformational space for you to step fully into your power as an embodied leader. Her work doesn't just change your business - it changes how you move through the world. Just be prepared for your entire relationship with success, worthiness, and what's possible to be completely transformed.
This is where trauma becomes your greatest teacher, shame transforms into strength, and your deepest wounds become the source of your most powerful work. Welcome to the revolution of leading from your authentic core.
