Join Wendy for the Word of the Year Workshop on Saturday, January 3rd — a 90-minute guided experience designed to help you uncover the word that will anchor your year ahead. We’ll use meditation, journaling, and a beautiful mind-mapping practice to move beyond resolutions and choose a word that speaks to who you’re becoming.
Welcome to the Say YES to Yourself! Podcast—the show for midlife women, empty nesters, and anyone navigating life after divorce, burnout, or big transitions. If you're ready to shed cultural expectations, reconnect with your true self, and put your joy first—you’re in the right place.
In this episode, Wendy is joined by money coach Hanna Bier for a conversation that goes way beyond mindset work. If you’ve ever felt like you “should” be further along financially—or if affirmations, budgeting, or manifestation haven’t worked for you—this episode offers an entirely different lens. Hanna shares how unresolved energy patterns, generational pain, and unconscious entanglements can block our ability to feel safe with money, and how real healing begins when we stop bypassing the deeper work.
They explore:
- Why mindset, strategy, and affirmations can only go so far when you're still entangled in inherited pain
- What it actually means to "heal your money"—and why you don’t have to relive your trauma to do it
- The difference between money healing and money management (and why we need both)
This is a conversation about energetic healing, generational patterns, and creating a relationship with money that feels safe, supportive, and aligned. Press play and discover what becomes possible when you stop forcing change and start creating safety in your nervous system and beyond.
