We all do it, but we can learn to be kinder to ourselves with the help of this month's guest speaker, Wendi Fredregill, who will be hosting her workshop: Overcoming Negative Self-Talk: Empowering Strategies for Personal and Professional Growth.

Join us as Wendi shares insights on recognizing and understanding the patterns of negative self-talk that often hinder our progress and undermine our confidence. Wendi will explore practical strategies to challenge and transform these negative thoughts into empowering actions. By identifying and addressing these internal barriers, you will gain the tools to become your own best advocate, enabling you to move forward with greater self-assurance to achieve your personal and professional goals. Discover how to become friends with your inner critic and unlock your true potential.

On her journey as a mindset coach, leader, and curator of joy, Wendi is passionately dedicated to assisting female entrepreneurs in overcoming perfectionism, procrastination, and fear. Her robust faith, coupled with an abundance of idea-generating energy, empowers those in her sphere to cultivate more joy in their lives.

Serving as the Business Manager at Apexx Creative and CEO of Sasstastic Life, LLC, Wendi functions as a mindset coach and co-hosts the YouTube show and podcast, "Your Sasstastic Life," alongside Tricia Rivas. With a profound love for strong coffee, the ocean, and all things related to personal growth, Wendi finds joy in spending time with her family and friends, engaging in activities like kayaking and tennis, and immersing herself in music.
