The Say YES Sisterhood is your invitation to a vibrant community of women who are embracing their dreams, reclaiming their joy, and living life with intention. Join today!

Welcome to the Say YES to Yourself! Podcast—the show for midlife women, empty nesters, and those navigating major life transitions like divorce, reinvention, and rediscovery. If you're ready to shed old roles and finally put yourself first, you're in the right place.

In this episode, Wendy is joined by Lia Garvin, TEDx speaker and author of The New Manager Playbook. From corporate dynamics to personal boundaries, Lia shares how self-trust, aligned communication, and conscious leadership can shift not just your career, but the lives of those you lead.

They explore:

• What real leadership looks like when it prioritizes people, purpose, and permission to grow
• The pressure to over-function in leadership and how to choose impact over burnout
• How aligned communication and intentional action can shift everything, from how you lead to how you live

Whether you're guiding a team or navigating a new season of life, this episode offers a powerful reframe: leadership isn’t about doing more—it’s about showing up with intention.
