| 5/31/26 |  Ep 278 Chad Herst – The Performance Trap | In this insightful interview, Chad Herst shares his transformative journey through yoga, personal grief, and coaching. He discusses the profound lessons from his book 'The Performance Trap,' exploring themes of vulnerability, surrender, and self-acceptance. Chad began practicing Ashtanga Yoga in 1993, with David Williams as his first teacher, and was authorized to teach by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois in 2003. He made the pilgrimage to Mysore for fourteen years, studied with Tim Miller, Chuck Miller, and Eddie Stern, and went on to found three Mysore-style programs. He still practices today. He's also a former licensed acupuncturist and has spent the last twenty years coaching high performers. His new book, The Performance Trap, is in part a reckoning with what the practice did to his body, and with the harder question underneath: why he kept going back long after he knew better, and what it means to still be on the mat at fifty-something. He lives in Northern California with his wife, Melissa.
