HER STORY ⟡ Jaime Kline
Today, we are meeting Jaime Kline, Founder and Chief Wellness Officer of Satya Yoga and Wellness!
Tell us about you and your background!
I am a 500-hour registered yoga teacher and professionally certified sound healer and I live in Severna Park, Maryland. I started teaching yoga in 2018 and since then have accumulated over 1000 hours of training in holistic wellness modalities and my specialties include Tibetan Buddhism meditation, Restorative Yoga, Sound Healing, and Somatic Trauma Therapy. I am a certified Usui/Holy Fire III Level 2 Reiki Practitioner. Wellness is not my first career, and I also hold B.S. and M.S. degrees in Mechanical Engineering and work in the aerospace industry as an Operations Director.
Tell us about your business & why you started it?
I started my business in 2023. In early 2023, I was dealing with a difficult transition in my aerospace work, and decided to continue my education in yoga and sound healing as a means to heal myself from the current and past traumas I’ve experienced. In that time, I received some mentorship on how to curate wellness events and completed my professional sound healing certification with The Sound Healer’s Academy. These two trainings inspired me to step outside of my comfort zone and launch a website to offer yoga and sound healing services in the Annapolis and Baltimore areas. At the same time, I started teaching at a local yoga studio cooperative, where each teacher is paid directly by the students. This helped motivate me to become an official registered business.
What do you love about being a business owner?
I love helping people. I have found through my own journey that many women are dealing with similar situations like mine, where they are questioning their own path. Asking questions like, “how do achieve a happy and content life?” is something I’ve heard from many of my clients and because I’ve done the work to heal myself and find contentment and happiness within myself, I know I can help others on the same journey.
Being a business owner takes a lot of grit and hard work, something I’ve never shied away from. There’s also been an opportunity for me to learn about marketing, sales, and leadership in a way I haven’t experienced in aerospace. It’s so exciting to be building something from the ground up!
What type of impact do you hope to have on those you meet and/or who receive your services?
I want to help people, especially women just like me, to find their own truth and to step into their power. That might mean exploring every aspect of their lives to determine if they’re living in alignment with their hearts and souls. It might mean going against what society traditionally expects of us as women, to achieve the happiness and contentment and freedom they are seeking. But it is so possible!
What advice would you give to yourself from 5 years ago? OR your past self just starting your business?
I’ve only just started this journey, but I wish I knew 5 years ago what I know now and it is this: Stop worrying about what others think of you. Start listening to the inner voice that knows exactly what you need. Take care of your heart and soul and dream big because it is all possible.
What does BEAUTY mean to you?
Beauty is about living an authentically aligned life. It’s not about force fitting into someone else’s mold or trying to be something we’re not. It’s about acceptance, faith and love. Beauty is also about supporting each other, being each other’s cheerleaders and finding compassion for others in their times of need. We are all much more alike than we are different.
Who or what inspires you?
I am inspired by the other women in this industry, doing this work to help others, while building businesses, raising children, or taking care of aging parents. It takes real dedication and commitment to continue to live in the light and believe that it will all happen it its right time. The women in my business mentorship are some of the most inspiring women I’ve ever met because they are heart-centered leaders who continually help others heal. They are super women!
What would you like our Beauty Boost members to know?
I am so grateful to be part of this community, where I see women supporting women. We need each other! I would also be honored for the Beauty Boost community to check out my membership, RITUAL, which is launching on January 11th. In this membership, there will be on-demand videos of yoga, sound healings, meditations, worksheets, PDFs, recommendations and so much more to help women on their own healing journey. Your journey to self-discovery starts with RITUAL! The waitlist is now live for the membership, and waitlist subscribers will be offered Founding Members’ pricing.
