The Entertaining with Ease Bundle
In this episode, Wendy talks with Cassy Williamson, speaker, leadership coach, and author of Unapologetic: A Journey to Living Boldly, Loving Fiercely, and Being Nothing But Yourself. Cassy shares her mission to help women stop dimming their light, unlearn the habit of “earning” their worth, and show up fully as who they are — at work, at home, and in every relationship. With humor and heart, she and Wendy explore what it means to be unapologetically whole, even when life feels messy.
They explore:
- The difference between “earning your worth” and “dimming your light” — and how to stop doing both
- Why your “best yes” sometimes looks like saying no, walking away, or closing a chapter
- How learning to ask for help (and receive it) can expand your capacity for connection, courage, and joy
Tune in for an energizing reminder that you don’t need to shrink to fit someone else’s version of enough — you already are.
