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.

This week, Wendy is joined by Nejat Abdurahman- keynote speaker, business strategist, and author of The Art of Managing Up- for a powerful conversation about career fulfillment, leadership, and becoming the CEO of your own career. 

They explore:

• Why working hard isn't enough, and how to shift into value-aligned work at every stage of your career
• The mindset shift from employee to empowered leader: how to own your performance and your impact
• The rising trend of people leaving corporate roles for entrepreneurship and what it means to design your own path.

Whether you're navigating burnout at work, craving career clarity, or ready to build your own brilliance, this episode is your reminder that you don't have to wait for permission to build the life and career your want.
