About this listen

In this episode of Wine, Whiskey, and Life, I had the pleasure of speaking with Ryanne Siddiq, author of Speedy Phoebe. Ryanne's story is a powerful reminder of the resilience and creativity that can emerge in the face of adversity. From being a financial professional to navigating the challenges of COVID-19 as a stay-at-home mom, Ryanne’s journey is filled with personal triumphs and struggles. We dive deep into her experience during the pandemic, where the pressures of distance learning and health battles led to the creation of Speedy Phoebe, a children's book inspired by Ryanne’s own life and her beloved Porsche Cayman. Through this book, she encourages young readers to persevere and be kind to themselves, no matter the chaos they face. Ryanne shares how dealing with debilitating hand tremors and fatigue led her to celebrate the small victories of daily life, like simply getting out of bed. She emphasizes how life’s imperfections should be embraced, as they often lead to unexpected breakthroughs. In addition to writing, Ryanne's passion for keynote speaking shines through as she talks about empowering audiences to tackle life's challenges with the same spirit and resilience she applies to navigating a racetrack. Her message is clear: embrace your journey, honor your mess, and trust the process.
