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 week’s episode of the Say YES to Yourself! podcast, Wendy is joined by Sara Ecklein, professional fiduciary and host of the Legacy of Love podcast, for a tender, illuminating conversation about legacy, storytelling, and conscious end-of-life care.

Sara’s personal experiences with loss led her to reimagine how we approach trust administration - not just as a legal task, but as an act of love.

They explore:

• Why courageous conversations are the true key to legacy and intimacy
• How Sara’s own loss led her to build a mindful fiduciary agency
• Why our estate plan can be a mirror reflecting our values, care, and truth

Whether you're navigating your own estate plan or supporting someone else's, this episode offers a gentle yet powerful invitation to create peace, clarity, and meaning for yourself and the people you love.

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 heart-centered episode, Wendy sits down with Susan Tripi, visionary founder of The Sparrow Collective, to explore the power of creating safe, supportive living communities for women navigating divorce. Susan shares the divine download that sparked this movement, the bold mission behind it, and how presence, trust, and aligned action are transforming lives.

They explore:

• Why stepping out of familiar environments can create space for clarity, healing, and vision
• How The Sparrow Collective is addressing financial insecurity, housing, and holistic support for women and their children
• The difference between forcing outcomes and allowing divine orchestration in your dreams

Susan's work is a powerful reminder of what's possible when women rise together - and she's just getting started.

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 soulful conversation, Wendy is joined by therapist and grief specialist Emma Tomes for a deep dive into Internal Family Systems, self-leadership, and the powerful (and often surprising) ripple effects of saying yes to yourself. From unburdening old beliefs to embracing every part of who you are, this episode invites listeners to pause, reflect, and reclaim their inner authority.

They explore:

• How to recognize and work with your “parts”—especially when they’re in conflict
• Why grief extends far beyond death—and how to honor it in all forms of loss
• What it looks like to lead your life from self-compassion, not self-abandonment
