Great Gobs of Girlfriend Love

Happy Podcast Friday, Friends!

Wynne’s opener to our podcasts refers to ‘talented creatives who inspire’.  Never would she think of herself as a gleaming example of a heroine and a source of inspiration for others…and yet…she is just that. 

I’m grateful to Wynne for her openness and giving soul.  In her mind?  She’s JUST Wynne – living her beautiful life as she captures the moments that matter.  So humble…and it’s one of her most endearing traits. 

One of things I adore about Wynne is her giving heart but if you ask her, she’d defer and demur and bring her brilliant father into focus.  In so many ways, her father and mine continue to be loving guides in our daily lives.  One of the interconnecting threads…love of family…that cements our friendship.

In this episode, Wynne answers questions and peels back the layers of how her beautiful family came to be and how the “Power of Choice” is a gift she gave herself.  And this podcast?  A gift for all of us.

Hi — I’m Vicki and I’m a big believer in the power of connection – taking time to share what matters most. I love pondering…thinking about work, family and home life and I enjoy blogging about all of it. Cheers!

        Turnabout is fair play… isn’t that the saying? 😊

    Vicki, you are such a marvel. I’m sure that in your humility, you don’t see all the amazingness that you engender by being you – encouraging, open, trusted, insightful, smart, and warm. Thank you so much for everything, my dear friend!

    Everyone is taking the words right out my thoughts, right out of my mouth so-to-speak. You guys are so creative and inspiring. I saw an interview today with comedian Leanne Morgan in Forbes that reminded me of you guys. She said that people are drawn to authenticity. I would add vulnerability to that. You guys show others that both are awesome things to share. I always leave your content/podcasts inspired!

    To know Wynne is to love her. And I do, and I do. And I do, and I do. (Was going for song lyrics there.) Love the title of this post!
