Number 1: Perfectionism: Why Your Brain Thinks It's Keeping You Safe | Martine Cohen
Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself! Check out the new website: www.wendy-harrop.com Martine Cohen didn't set out to rethink her relationship with rest. Instead, a serious car accident and concussion forced the issue, stopping her in her tracks until she had no choice but to listen to her body in a way she'd ignored for years. She's since built her work, including her book No More Layers, around exactly that: understanding why we override our own needs, and how to stop. In this episode, Martine and Wendy explore:Why perfectionism isn't a personality trait but a safety mechanism the brain built to avoid rejection, and why that mechanism can never actually be satisfiedThe small, consistent rituals Martine uses to reset her nervous system daily, and why tiny, repeated habits do more than one big gesture ever couldWhy so many women only give themselves permission to ask for help when something has gone wrong, and never when things are going wellMartine's approach isn't about overhauling your whole life overnight. It's about noticing the habits you already have, deciding which ones are actually serving you, and building new ones in their place, one small, repeatable choice at a time. Don't forget to DM Wendy @wendy.harrop and Martine @martinecohen_ on Instagram to share your new habit!

Number 3: Stop Forcing Productivity and Start Leading Your Creative Work | Christine Carron
Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself! Want to come inside La Menarderie? On Saturday, September 19, Wendy is opening the doors (virtually!) for a live tour of the château she and her friend Liz have been bringing to life in the French countryside. Come see the treasures she’s sourced, what they’ve been working on, and this beautiful old property while it’s still very much in progress. The tour is live on Zoom and will not be recorded. JOIN THE LIVE TOUR: wendy-harrop.myflodesk.com/lamenarderietour In this episode, Wendy sits down with Christine Carron of Good Jelly to challenge the idea that meaningful progress requires more pressure, discipline, or hours spent working. Christine helps highly capable creatives find patterns of progress that honor how they actually work, rather than forcing themselves into someone else’s system. Together, they explore what changes when you stop treating yourself like an assembly line, recognize the wins you usually dismiss, and begin leading your creative work with more spaciousness, self-trust, and delight. They explore:Why your creative process is allowed to look different from everyone else’s and change from one project, season, or day to the next How perfectionism and undefined finish lines keep you working without ever feeling the momentum of what you’ve completed Christine’s practice of creating “done boosts” by naming your endpoints and becoming flagrantly generous in acknowledging your progress This is a conversation about making room for creativity without running yourself into the ground. If you’re doing meaningful work but constantly focused on what remains unfinished, Christine offers a more sustaining way to recognize your progress and keep moving.

Number 4: A Vision of Mary Magdalene and the Wholeness Within | Aline Ghorayeb
Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself! Want to come inside La Menarderie? On Saturday, September 19, Wendy is opening the doors (virtually!) for a live tour of the château she and her friend Liz have been bringing to life in the French countryside. Come see the treasures she’s sourced, what they’ve been working on, and this beautiful old property while it’s still very much in progress. The tour is live on Zoom and will not be recorded. JOIN THE LIVE TOUR: wendy-harrop.myflodesk.com/lamenarderietour And if you’re dreaming of more time in a French château, Wendy is also inviting just six guests to join her for Stories, Sourcing & Styling at Château de Brives, November 15–23. EXPLORE STORIES, SOURCING & STYLING: wendy-harrop.com/experiences-cart/p/antique-experience-france In this episode, Wendy sits down with Aline Ghorayeb, author of A Change of Heart with Mary Magdalene, to talk about the spiritual vision that changed the direction of her life. Aline shares how the experience and the messages that followed led her to Mary Magdalene, called her to write despite never considering herself an author, and opened a new chapter in her spiritual journey. Her search to understand what she had received eventually led her to A Course in Miracles, the Gnostic Gospels, and a message that continues to guide her: we are not separate, incomplete, or alone. They explore: How Aline discerns between fear-based reactions and choices that reconnect her with love What it meant to trust a deeply personal spiritual experience and share its message with others Why wholeness is not something we must earn or find outside ourselves, but something we are invited to remember This is a conversation about trusting your inner knowing, remaining open to the ways guidance may arrive, and releasing the conditioning that tells you something essential is missing from who you already are.

Number 5: How Shame Keeps You Stuck in Relationship Patterns | Jessica Fern & David Cooley
Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself! Ready for your own pattern interrupt? Explore Wendy’s upcoming experiences in France and discover what becomes available when you step outside your routine, learn something new, and say yes to an adventure that feels good. wendy-harrop.com/journeys In this episode, Wendy sits down with therapist Jessica Fern and restorative relationship practitioner David Cooley to examine how shame shapes the way we relate to ourselves and the people closest to us. They introduce the “inner shame triangle”: an inner critic that attacks, a shame part that absorbs and believes the criticism, and escaper parts that try to outrun it through over-functioning, under-functioning, busyness, or numbing. The conversation becomes deeply personal as Wendy reflects on her divorce and Jessica and David share how they ended their marriage, continued co-parenting, and created a new relationship structure that better meets their family’s needs. They explore: How the inner critic, shame, and escaper parts reinforce one another and show up during relationship conflict Why willingness and capacity are both necessary for couples who want to grow together What it means to measure a relationship’s success by whether people’s needs are being met, not simply by how long it lasts This is a conversation about recognizing the internal patterns influencing your relationships, responding to yourself with greater compassion, and allowing relationships to evolve when the old configuration no longer works.
