  From Stuck in a Chair at 60 to Thriving at 87 | Susanne Eden

  Aug 21, 202643 min

  Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself! DM Wendy on Instagram: instagram.com/wendy.harrop or email her at hello@phineaswrighthouse.com Susanne Eden turned 60 and thought her life was over. She could barely get out of a chair, was on 200 units of insulin a day, and had spent years on prednisone that had quietly wrecked her endocrine system. Now 87, she's the author of Healing from the Inside, Living Fully As You Age . Susanne and Wendy explore: What actually changed when she stopped waiting for a doctor to hand her the answer and started experimenting with holistic and energy-based healing instead Why she believes health, aging, and self-worth are impossible to separate, and how trying to treat them individually is where so many people get stuck The recent loss of a close friend, and the recorded conversation they shared in her friend's final months that became part of a new project called Conversations with Susanne Susanne's story isn't about reversing a diagnosis or finding a miracle fix. It's about what happens when someone finally stops outsourcing the answer and starts paying attention to what her own body and mind were trying to tell her all along.

  Why She Keeps Finding Dimes From Her Late Wife | Kathryn Henry

  Aug 19, 202650 min

  Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself! Cognac Jewellery School Foundation Week: Dates in May, July, August and September 2027 phineaswrighthouse.com/the-shop/p/cognac-jewellery-school-summer-foundations-2027 Cognac Jewellery School Intermediate Week: May, July, and September 2027 phineaswrighthouse.com/the-shop/p/cognac-jewellery-school-intermediate-2027 Kathryn Henry spent a decade beside her wife through a grueling cancer battle, walking away from her corporate career to be fully present for it. After her wife passed, small, inexplicable things like dimes, turning up in impossible places, became something she couldn't write off as coincidence. That became the title of her memoir, A Dime to Say I Love You . They explore: What happened on a rain-soaked mountain trail in Japan that turned a moment of "what did I get myself into" into the clarity to finish writing the book The difference between knowing something intellectually and knowing it in every cell of your body, and why only one of those actually changes how you live How childhood trauma decades earlier shaped the spiritual practice she now leans on to process both grief and reinvention Kathryn's story isn't about grief resolving into peace on a tidy timeline. It's about learning to recognize the signs that were there all along, and letting them pull you forward instead of trying to explain them away.

  The 72-Hour Practice to Manifest a New Life | Riana Malia

  Aug 14, 202655 min

  Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself! Cognac Jewellery School Foundation Week: Dates in May, July, August and September 2027 phineaswrighthouse.com/the-shop/p/cognac-jewellery-school-summer-foundations-2027 Cognac Jewellery School Intermediate Week: May, July, and September 2027 phineaswrighthouse.com/the-shop/p/cognac-jewellery-school-intermediate-2027 Riana Malia works as what she calls an identity architect for high-achieving women, helping them clear the old subconscious patterns running the show long before anyone notices, so they can actually build the life they're reaching for instead of quietly recreating the one they already have. She and Wendy walk through the exact tool she hands her private clients to do it: two lists, a rubber band, and 72 hours. They explore: Why old patterns keep sabotaging results years after the moment that created them, and how that "residue" gets stored in the body at a cellular level, not just the mind The real-time example from Riana's own life (a business relationship blowing up the morning of this interview) and the difference between treating it as something happening to her versus something happening for her How the 72-hour rubber band practice works step by step, and why three days is enough to start building a new neural pathway instead of reinforcing the old one Riana's work isn't about excavating the old story to explain why someone feels stuck. It's about clearing the pattern out of the body first, then giving the mind something new and specific to build toward in love, in money, in work, in whatever's next.

  How to Date From Abundance, Not Scarcity | Kathryn Morea

  Aug 12, 202659 min

  Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself! Kathryn Morea spent 29 years married before a divorce in her early 50s left her rebuilding an identity she hadn't touched in decades. She'd only ever known herself as half of a marriage, so figuring out who she was on her own, in her 50s, meant starting from a blank page most people don't expect to face at that age. Now in her 60s, she coaches midlife women through what she calls the glow-up: reclaiming body confidence, dating, and desirability instead of assuming that season of life is over. They explore: Why she believes so many women unknowingly operate from scarcity around dating and love, and what changed when she started seeing real abundance instead The specific mindset shift that made her stop apologizing for her body on dates, and why she thinks the apology itself sends the wrong message What it took to separate her worth from a story she'd been telling herself for years about what was still available to her at this age Kathryn's story isn't about pretending midlife is easy. It's about refusing to accept the version of it she'd been handed by default. She spent years rebuilding from the ground up, and what she's built instead isn't a consolation prize for what she lost. It's a life she actively likes better.

  What Nobody's Telling Gen Z About Work | Giselle Sandy-Phillips

  Aug 7, 202647 min

  Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself! This conversation opens on calling, guidance, and what it looks like to trust a path before you can see where it leads, and that path is exactly how Giselle Sandy-Phillips ended up writing a career guide for Gen Z. (Book talk starts around 24:00, if you want to jump ahead.) She built it as a family project: her own kids gave feedback on every chapter, and her daughter's photo is on the cover. In this conversation, Wendy and Giselle explore: The gap she kept seeing between how young employees actually think and communicate, vs. the myth that they are lazy, entitled, and unprepared How financial literacy, mental health, and career planning all ended up in the same book How the project shifted the moment she stopped keeping it private and let her own kids shape what made it into the final book Giselle's book started as one woman noticing a hole on the shelf and deciding to fill it. What's followed — award recognition, international book fairs, a growing list of press — has as much to do with the people she brought along for the process as it does with her own drive to see it through.
