Your insider seat at the table to an elite conversation on property, leverage, wealth, power plays, negotiation psychology and elevated decision making.
Meet your host.
Wendy Russell is a property strategist, buyer’s advocate, and entrepreneur who has spent more than two decades helping people make smarter decisions around property, wealth and financial independence.
As the founder of Room818 and The WENDYRUSSELL Institute, she combines deep expertise in property acquisition and negotiation, with a passion for helping women build lives of choice.
Having bought, sold, developed and advised on millions of dollars’ worth of property exchanges, Wendy understands that wealth is rarely built through luck — it is built through confidence, capability and the ability to negotiate for what you want.
Her work sits at the intersection of money, property, personal authority and self-leadership. Through her writing, speaking, advisory work and education programs, she teaches ambitious professionals how to own their voice, strengthen their decision-making, build financial independence and create wealth on their own terms.
“This podcast exists because I want to create the kind of conversations ambitious people are rarely invited into.”
After decades working in high-stakes environments, I’ve learned that success is rarely about surface strategy alone. It’s about emotional regulation, decision-making, positioning, standards, leverage and the ability to move through the world with certainty.
Room818 is an extension of the conversations I’ve had behind closed doors with high performers, investors, business owners and ambitious men and women seeking more than motivation. It’s a space for strategic insight, sharper thinking and honest perspective — for people who want to build wealth, influence and a life designed on their own terms.
