Color Me Joyful with Yolanda Gray

Live Like Your Nail Color Podcast with Mary Foley

When you think of joy, what comes to mind? Anything in the last two years? You might be thinking, joy, how about oh boy instead! Today’s gal pal Yolanda started the pandemic party like the rest of us feeling “oh boy, this stinks, this is hard” and through her own circumstances and journey, she learned to find a new level of joy. If that is not living like your nail color, I don’t know what is! Listen in to be encouraged and inspired.

Yolanda Gray is a certified holistic life coach with a Bachelor of Science in human development and a Master of Arts in human relations. For over twenty years, she has been facilitating workshops, leading retreats, speaking at events, and coaching women in the areas of personal and spiritual growth and alcohol recovery.
