Reinvention, Family Business & the Courage to Pivot in Midlife | Jennifer Wilson
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 Jennifer Wilson, a certified leadership coach, former CEO, and author of The Heart of Homestay. Together they discuss what it means to design your life on purpose, whether you're stepping away from a long-held role, embracing a new identity, or finally allowing yourself to pursue what’s been calling you.
They explore:
• What it really looks like to walk away from a role you’ve outgrown, especially when it’s “successful”
• How to navigate midlife reinvention with clarity, self-trust, and purpose
• Why discomfort is often a sign you’re growing—and how to move through it with confidence
This is a heartfelt conversation about letting go, leaning in, and living in alignment—on your terms.
