Episode 7: Stay Supple, My Friend
38m · PublishedIn this episode, Yolonda Coles Jones, aka The Calm and Thrive Coach, is back from a time of pausing the release of episodes, using the unexpected time away to illustrate what it might look like at times to be unapologetic about seeing to our whole-being well-being.
She shares her experiences as her life transitioned into motherhood, including there the story of when she knew she needed to take a different kind of care of herself.
You'll hear her describe what it looked like for her to begin to have an active sense of stillness and connection to herself in the midst of major changes in her life—loss of loved ones, debilitating health challenges, grief, welcoming twin babies, moving residences.
Yolonda is speaking about deepening into mindfulness in the midst of what she calls both "a dark night of the soul" and "happy chaos." She explains what it looks like to combine gentle self-awareness together with unconditional and unapologetic self-love, as well as how to redirect one's attention to moving into the totality and fullness of life, bringing a sense of grounded presence to each moment, whatever kind of moment it is, and maintaining the energy to keep us supple and alive.
If you are under a lot of pressure and are in a season in your life where you are nurturing others, this is the precise time to practice loving, gentle self-awareness and self-nurturing: unapologetic and unconditional self-love. Stay supple.

40m · PublishedIn this episode, Yolonda Coles Jones, aka The Calm and Thrive Coach, shares what she learned from her body after 5 consecutive days of professional massage therapy, why she took this action in the first place and how you can access your body's wisdom today--even if you can't get to a professional massage therapist right now.
Yolonda's discussing her "pandemic pounds" (literal + energetic), an Ayurvedic perspective to support self-love even as you're making some changes and the custom plan (experiment) she co-created with massage therapist Andrea Tchalou (@dreatchal) to address the congestion between Yolonda's shoulder blades.
She also gets into becoming aware of the need to have a somewhat challenging conversation with someone close to her and addresses a subscriber's question about bringing ritual into your everyday life.
She offers accessible ways to give non-judgmental care, attention and nurturing to YOUR body and to invite your body to be your ally in the journey you're making.
If you’re a human who is looking for a sound, actionable and high value "how to" when it comes to connecting with custom-fit-for-you guidance, this episode is for YOU.

28m · PublishedIn this episode, Yolonda Coles Jones, aka The Calm and Thrive Coach, shares her take on the experience of being called "superwoman," why she has distanced herself from that idea and why she would love to live in a world where others do the same.
Yolonda's discussing the role of "nurturer," what the title encompasses and how it extends beyond raising children and being in a womxn+'s body.
She also gets into why the descriptor "superwoman" is often harmful more than it is helpful, even when one is well-meaning.
