Be inspired by this next episode of The Midlife Reinvention, where we learn about Wendy Thomas, and her courageous story of surviving an early stage breast cancer diagnosis, and the power of a positive mindset.  Her authentic and eloquent words and advice should make us all pause and reflect on what is really important in our lives. 

 Wendy is the Founder of Wendy Thomas Coaching which helps individuals and teams excel in work and life by learning to harness the power of mindset. An early stage breast cancer  diagnosis gave Wendy the courage and perspective to follow her long-time entrepreneurial  dream of establishing her own coaching company.
