Through honest conversations and inspiring stories, host Wendy Harrop interviews women who have reinvented themselves, trusted their intuition, overcome life's challenges, and created meaningful change—one courageous yes at a time.
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.

You'll find conversations about:
- Personal growth and self-discovery

This week on the say YES to yourself! podcast Wendy sits down with Beeta Hashempour founder of French Lifestyle brand Mon Petit Four®.
Beeta shares her observations of French lifestyle and the French women who say Yes to themselves everyday, through self care practices they incorporate into their daily lives.
While living in Paris Beeta observed how French women embrace their beauty and enhance their lifestyle by making moments big or small special with intentional settings.
Beeta brings these beautiful practices of a mindful and healthy lifestyle to her clients and women in her programs.
Get to know Beeta:
After her first trip to Paris in 2010, Beeta fell in love with all things French and became a self-proclaimed Francophile.
To share her love for France and French culture, she created the popular French lifestyle brand Mon Petit Four®, and launched a collection of her favorite French recipes and French lifestyle inspiration. On her site Mon Petit Four she shares classic French recipes as well as modern variations influenced by Beeta’s Californian roots. Her ability to simplify French recipes and eliminate the intimidation factor when it comes to French cooking has made her site one of the top French recipe sites for several years in a row. You’ll also find a variety of French lifestyle ideas aimed at helping you slow down, be more intentional and artful with your living, and fully embrace French culture and attitude at home.
Under Mon Petit Four®, Beeta also founded the online Francophile community and membership platform Everyday France, dedicated to bringing France home to all those who love and adore the country and everything it has to offer.
Most recently, after living in Paris in the 7th arrondissement and immersing herself fully in everyday French life, Beeta launched her one-on-one coaching program aimed at helping women throughout the world elevate their style and step into a more luxurious and abundant lifestyle. Living among the French, Beeta was able to witness the drastic differences between the French and American lifestyles, mainly the fact that French women live so much more intentionally and artfully. Today, Beeta enjoys coaching women living elsewhere to adopt that same mindset and sense of sophistication through French style principles and lifestyle practices she learned living abroad.
