So many of us spend so long thinking of the worst case scenarios, pre-planning the terrible outcomes and living in anticipation of something going wrong. This meditation is designed to bring attention to how your body reacts to this and to take a small moment in time to notice how your body feels when you ask the question "what if it's all amazing and works out better than I could imagine?".An opportunity to choose differently in this moment and to delve a little deeper into how you want to feel.7 Day Chakra Restore & Balance: https://buy.stripe.com/00g3eZ07Z2B52eAdQWwww.olaparkes.com⛰️ Switzerland - Woman’s Leadership Trail - 22-25th September🧘‍♂️ Italy - Puglia Pilates and Movement Retreat - 11-15th October

"How can we build a life that feels good rather than looks good?" Blaise BoultonFrom studying Psychology to working in the police force, on the front lines of mental health, within the prison system, in the Ministry of Justice and now working as a Career and Life Transition Coach, Blaise is the queen of change and adjustment.In this fascinating discussion, Blaise shares the truth of those in-between periods, how to manage the fear of the uncertainty in those times and little things we can all do to help us navigate change.I love her insight into how we can shift our perspective on the the same piece of information we receive, from what is wrong with me to what is life trying to tell and to show me? We also discuss how important it is to find the pieces of joy in our lives that have nothing to do with our career or work and rediscovering who we are without the labels, the accolades.Blaise shares tips on how to balance the practicalities of life with big leaps into the unknown and how to find the support that we all need.We round off with coming to terms and accepting the constant state of flux that our life is in and to ride the waves of what life is right now, knowing that it will change and shift again.Contact and work with Blaise:Website https://www.blaiseboulton.com/Linkedin www.linkedin.com/in/blaiseboultonSubstack https://blaiseboulton.substack.com/Newsletter https://www.blaiseboulton.com/newsletter✨www.olaparkes.com

Welcome back! After a winter of hibernation, growth and shifts, Fully Blooming is back with this solo episode 2 years after the very first one!Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnSWi7TK5v4This episode I touch on a multitude of topics including my London > Switzerland process, stepping into even more safety and therefore, being able to push the edges even more, and stepping into your power that tad bit more whilst recognising the old stories you have in place to protect yourself from doing that.It's funny listening back to this as I recorded it on May 19th 2025 and already feel that if I recorded this episode today, it would be completely different. I'm sure if I listened back to the first one 2 years ago, some parts wouldn't resonate anymore.However, that's what's so magic about documenting the moment - we get to witness and celebrate the growth within ourselves and within others. We get to note what our truth was in that moment and honour that. Even, and maybe especially when, it's not our truth anymore. We allow ourselves to take that moment of pause, to reflect and give ourselves a pat on the back, a hug, an acknowledgment of how quickly things are changing now.When things feel stagnant, strained or like time has stopped, we have the guarantee that nothing is. And that usually during these times, the biggest shifts are happening and before we know it we're being propelled into exactly what we asked for.It's in those moments of stillness that that's where the beauty is. That that's what life is really about. The not needing or wanting to be anywhere else but here. Right now. Knowing that nothing is forever, everything is transient and nothing is better or worse than anything else.I love you all and acknowledge exactly where you are right now, where you want to be, and the potential discomfort of the human experience of not being there quite yet. Simply know that you are enough ♥️Ola xxx✨ Connect with me: www.olaparkes.com

I share about the last couple of weeks where I've felt like 2024 was trying to squeeze everything misaligned out of me in preparation for 2025. I open up about how it feels like to be 'held hostage by your mind' and share my methods of getting yourself out of the other side.I wish you all a magical, exciting and fun 2025! 💕💫 I am so grateful for you all listening and supporting.See you next year!Ola xx✨ Connect with me: www.olaparkes.com

This week I'm joined by the incredible writer, Katz Llale. I came across her writing a couple of months ago and felt so drawn to her work and her message. I'm sure you'll hear how excited I was to have her join me on this episode and how aligned our messaging is. I love this discussion as we share what it means to be visible and how to embrace the excitement that comes with receiving the attention for our gifts and talents. She is a true advocate of sharing your light with the world and embodies everything that I am so passionate about; following your intuition and what brings you joy, and living a life and on a timeline that is true to YOU.
