    Coffee with Phil

    CWP.5. Play the Long Game.

    In this episode of Coffee With Phil there’s a challenge that you may not like. Do you view your choices through the lens of a long-term or short-term gain?

    In this candid discussion, Phil shares five examples where he and Kathy have made significant decisions that were not motivated by the short-term, here and now. You’ll hear how they had to decide whether they would be affected by the views of others, what cost they were prepared to bear and, most importantly, what matters most.

    If you are motivated to reshape the way you see your world and how you make significant decisions that build into your family and your future, you may be interested to read Phil’s book, Building a Strong Family. It’s available as a paperback or ebook.

    If you’re the kind of person that only worries about feeling good today then you definitely won’t want to be challenged by Phil in this podcast. But, if you’re game, grab yourself some time and enjoy coffee with Phil.

    Coffee with Phil

    CWP.4. The Power of Team.

    In this episode of Coffee With Phil you will hear some of the key lessons Phil has learned through his book writing projects and how you can also achieve more with the power of team. 

    Back in 2014 when Phil launched Kids and Money he had people contributing from all over the world; his co-author Amanda was in Canada, he had proof-readers in NZ and Australia and he never met his editor who was living in Christchurch.  As Phil shares what he has learned you can see how you can harness the power of team when you engage people in what they are good at.. and it’s often best if you don’t do it all yourself!

    Coffee with Phil – an interview with Lana Carter

    CWP.3. Living Life With Depression.

    Welcome to Episode 3 of Coffee with Phil. In this episode Phil sits with long-time friend, Lana Carter, and asks her what it is like to live with depression. This conversation is raw, emotional and incredibly honest. This will help you to understand what may be going on inside of you, or perhaps help you to begin to understand what is happening inside someone close to you.

    The best advice I can give you is ‘be kind to yourself.’

    Lana Carter

    Being aware of and taking care of mental health is a huge topic, and by no means is this interview comprehensive help. This is one person sharing her journey – being completely vulnerable – with hope that you will gain insight from her story.

    CWP.2. Reading between the pages.

    Welcome to Episode 2 of Coffee with Phil. In this episode, (recorded under 2020 lockdown), Phil does what he does often – talks with himself! Phil pulls back the curtains and reveals some of what goes on behind the stories he writes.  If you’ve read his book, Building a Strong Family, you’ll know there has to be more than what is on the pages.  And that’s a bit of what Phil shares here… and there’s more! Phil challenges you to look deeper, to consider what is happening behind the story you see, to read between the pages, and to be blessed by what you find.

    Don’t miss the true gold in your journey, it’s often hidden under the mess.

    Phil Strong

    Even when you find yourself in a situation where it seems like worlds are colliding, like nothing makes sense, or you don’t have the answer to your “why” questions… when you read between the pages you find the best answer.

    Listen to this episode and discover that you are in charge of writing your own story!.
