Personal Growth & Reinvention for Women | say YES to yourself!

Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself!

Welcome to the Say YES to Yourself! Podcast—the show for midlife women, empty nesters, and anyone navigating life after divorce, burnout, or big transitions. If you're ready to shed cultural expectations, reconnect with your true self, and put your joy first—you’re in the right place.

In this episode, Wendy talks with Dina Berrin, seasoned intuitive guide, storyteller, and Certified Co-Active Life Coach, about the cycles that shape our lives and how to navigate them with grace. Dina explains what it means to be in a Universal 9 Year and how these cosmic patterns mirror the inner transformations many women experience in midlife. Together, they explore how trusting your intuition and embracing your own magic can help you close one chapter and consciously begin the next.

They explore:

• How numerology offers a language for understanding personal and collective transitions
• What it means to move through a Universal 9 Year with awareness
• Why intuition, not doing or holding more, is the key to creating your next chapter with ease and alignment

This episode is an invitation to listen to your inner wisdom and trust the magic that’s been within you all along.

Welcome to the Say YES to Yourself! Podcast—the show for midlife women, empty nesters, and anyone navigating life after divorce, burnout, or big transitions. If you're ready to shed cultural expectations, reconnect with your true self, and put your joy first—you're in the right place.

In this episode, Wendy sits down with sisters Andi Shaughnessy and Danielle Carter, who took over their father's delivery business after his passing, only to lose their top five clients three weeks later. With no business experience, they transformed Express It from 18 drivers to over 200, but this conversation goes deeper than business metrics.

They explore:

• Why the fear of regret became the catalyst for saying yes
• What happened when they stopped hiding their success and started celebrating it
• The unexpected power of telling your story instead of keeping yourself small

This is a conversation about resilience, sisterhood, and rewriting the narratives that no longer serve you. Tune in and discover why treating people right in the moment is the real competitive advantage in business and in life.
