She was building a business, but the community was not there yet, and it wore on her. What turned it around was putting herself in the right rooms, the Pyramid Club among them, and letting the connections find her.\nOut of that came Green Girl Era, the women's golf and social club she launched in 2026. For Yola, golf is a networking engine first and a sport second. She goes for the conversations on the course, the lunches after, and the introductions that travel from Philadelphia to Ghana, Kenya, and beyond.\nThe other side of her work is Recovery Space, the social service agency she owns. It grew from sober homes into transitional and emergency housing, case management, and partnerships with the district attorney's office and private landlords, serving people coming home from incarceration and rebuilding their lives. She talks about learning the business from the ground up, writing her own grants and proposals, and going all in to own her agency.\nInterested in being featured on People at Pyramid?\nRegister here\nWant help with your podcast?\nE-mail Vince Quinn vq@sbxproductions.com\nWant to learn about Pyramid Club Membership? \nClick here.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/7zpDIN0cDjQT4oOFLA2IVP7-TtS6tmEt5ulDpWznvv8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8xYTIz/MTc4NmY2YWE3YmFi/YTk3ZWE5ZGY2Yjcz/ZGMwYS5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
