WildHER Wisdom | An Essdee & Co. Production
Hosted by Shelley and Mary Gajda, WildHER Wisdom is the podcast for women who crave honest conversation, bold perspective, and a little laughter along the way. Each episode explores the realities of modern womanhood, from career and confidence to relationships, reinvention, and well-being.
This is real talk for real women. We celebrate ambition and authenticity, unpack the messy middle, and share stories that inspire growth and remind you that you are not alone.
Expect smart insights, soulful reflections, practical takeaways, and conversations that feel like time with your smartest girlfriends over coffee or cocktails.
WildHER Wisdom is more than a podcast. It is a space for courage, clarity, and becoming who you are meant to be.
Finding Your People Without Making It Weird…Okay, Maybe a Little Weird
“I hope women leave with the courage to be the first one to reach out. Making friends can feel awkward because you’re thinking, ‘I don’t want to text her and ask her to dinner. That’s weird.’ No—do it. She’s probably thinking the same thing. Everybody is trying to make friends and trying not to be awkward, so somebody has to be awkward first so we can be friends.”
— Ciya Hawkins
Money Talks: Building Financial Confidence for Women

Travel Isn't a Luxury—It's a Love Letter to Yourself

The Season of the Glow Up
We’re sometimes sitting around, waiting for people to give us permission to become who we are. And then once we actually say… no one’s coming to save me. That’s when the magic happens.
The One Where We Stopped Pretending and Started Becoming
“It’s really interesting how we expect other people to know, value, understand, and love us… when we don’t know, value, understand, and love ourselves.”
