How do you find yourself again after years of taking care of everyone else?
In this inspiring episode of the WHEN Stories Radio Network, Wendy Babcock sits down with women's empowerment speaker, entrepreneur, and confidence mentor Rhonda Deaver to explore the life experiences that inspired her keynote, The Power of One Yes.
For years, Rhonda poured herself into caring for her family, running a successful floral business, supporting her husband through a life-threatening heart emergency during the COVID pandemic, grieving the loss of her best friend, and putting everyone else's needs before her own.
Somewhere along the way...
She disappeared.
In this heartfelt conversation, Rhonda shares how one simple decision to say "yes" to a new community changed everything. What began as joining Mary Kay became something much deeper: a journey back to confidence, authentic friendships, self-worth, and rediscovering the woman she had quietly forgotten.
This isn't a conversation about makeup.
It's about the daily choices that remind women they matter.
Whether you're navigating caregiving, burnout, motherhood, entrepreneurship, empty nesting, grief, or simply wondering who you are outside of serving everyone else, this episode offers practical encouragement and hope that it's never too late to reclaim your voice.
In this episode you'll discover:
• Why so many women lose their identity while caring for everyone else
• The connection between confidence, self-care, and emotional well-being
• How caregiving and major life transitions quietly reshape who we become
• Why healthy female friendships can completely change your life
• The surprising power of saying "yes" to new opportunities
• Why your children learn more from watching you than listening to you
• How simple daily habits can rebuild confidence from the inside out
• Why investing in yourself isn't selfish—it's one of the greatest gifts you can give your family
Memorable Moments
"It's never about makeup. It's always about believing in yourself."
"Sometimes one 'yes' is all it takes to begin becoming yourself again."
"Our children may not always listen—but they're always watching."
