She is the creator of SpaceHealing™️, an experience (1:1 or in a group format) designed to help release all the layers of noise and distractions that keep all creative souls from experiencing that ultimate level of freedom from within, peace of mind, flow of cash/ideas/creativity/inspiration and the ability to take inspired action in life and business without second guessing themselves. Ultimately, Yola is a teacher and a student of teaching and learning how to continuously strengthen the muscles of self-permission and self-trust through the lens of intuition because when we have those, we can have the world.
