This week on the say YES to yourself! podcast Wendy hosts Sandra Sigman, owner of Les Fleurs, the French-inspired floral, home, and garden shop in Andover, Massachusetts, where she teaches workshops, along with ones in France.
Tune in to hear Sandra's childhood story that turned into a full-blown obsession when she moved to France in her early 20s working as a professional ice skater. Sandra immediately fell in love with Paris: the flower shops bursting at the seams with fresh blooms, the smell of fresh croissants, and the architectural beauty of the ever-busy streets. Through the power of flowers, she felt connected to her mom.
After moving back to the U.S, Sandra brought a piece of Paris home with her and founded Les Fleurs. Over thirty years later, her little French flower shop has blossomed into a thriving floral, home and garden concept store with curated antiques, botanicals and French products.
And now she has written her first book: French Blooms, Floral Arrangements Inspired by Paris and Beyond.
Follow along with Sandra on Instagram @lesfleursviasandra, or her store @lesfleursandover.

Since I was a little girl, I have had a passion for designing, creating, and event planning. I am a dreamer, visionary, creator, producer, and soul seeker of beauty. For well over forty years I have had the opportunity to create and design in many fields in the design industry. Each Beautiful Adventures I host is intentionally curated, produced and designed down to the finest detail. I trust that God is in the planning as he guides me through the planning process. I host small groups of Women who come from all over and who share the love for travel, beauty and gorgeous experiences. I am humbled and blessed to meet such extraordinary Women on each Beautiful Adventure. My spirit is so happy to see them smile, experience everlasting memories, enjoy once-in-a-lifetime adventures, and create life-long friendships. Creativity has been my source of healing and my compass to help me navigate my life after the passing of our beautiful daughter, Brittany, who continues to be my teacher, my hero, and my heart. I am a Nana to four gorgeous grandchildren and mother to three handsome sons. I am married to the love of my life, who has supported me and encouraged me to follow my dreams."

This week on the say YES to yourself! podcast Wendy hosts Nicole LeBlanc, owner of LePetite Studio in Bolton, MA. As you will hear in this episode, she is a true and very inspiring entrepreneur. Her journey into entrepreneurship started at a young age, when she knew she wanted to be a photographer.

After high school she worked as a photo lab technician in a one-hour camera shop. She continued her photo lab services in Marlborough for thirteen years and worked her way into studio photography. While there she developed film, created backgrounds, graphic art, and photographed in and out of the studio. She has also captured many weddings all over Massachusetts and beyond. In 2006 she took a leap of faith. With loving support from her husband, Lou, they opened Le Petite Studio, Inc., formerly of Northborough, now located in Bolton, MA
Her studio is making some big changes in 2023.

From the publisher's feed
If you're ready to stop living by everyone else's expectations and start creating a life that feels authentic, intentional, and fully your own, you're in the right place.
Say…
Every Wednesday and Friday, Wendy sits down with authors, entrepreneurs, coaches, creatives, and everyday women to share honest conversations about personal growth, life transitions, and what's possible when you choose yourself.
Whether you're navigating a career change, an empty nest, divorce, burnout, caregiving, entrepreneurship, or simply feeling like you've lost yourself, this podcast will remind you that your next chapter is still waiting to be written.
You'll find conversations about:
This podcast explores questions like:
• How do I reinvent myself when life no longer fits?
• How do I stop people-pleasing and start trusting myself?
• How do I rebuild after divorce, grief, or a major life transition?
• How do I find purpose in my next chapter?
• How do I create a life that feels aligned instead of expected?
• How do I build confidence after years of putting everyone else first?
• Is it too late to change careers, start a business, or follow a dream?
• How do I reconnect with the woman I've become?
If you're looking for encouragement, practical wisdom, and real stories from women who have chosen themselves—and found something even better on the other side—welcome.
Your best chapter doesn't happen by accident.
It begins the moment you say YES to yourself.
