Katie Yeakle:
Helping People Turn Their Passions Into Careers

“AWAI is built on a big promise … that we can teach you a new skill that can lead to increased income … independence from the 9-to-5 grind … and the freedom to live and work where you choose.

All of us at AWAI stand behind that promise. In fact, that’s how we measure our success – by how many people we help reinvent their lives.

I invite you to learn more about the opportunities we offer. Follow our proven advice, and you can be among the many successes we’re so proud of.”

— Katie Yeakle, AWAI Executive Director
