About Wendy
Wendy is a social entrepreneur and futurist who is passionate about unlocking the potential in people and projects.

What does fulfil us and produce sustainable states of wellbeing? How do we protect both children and adults from systems that undermine our inherent creativity and potential? How do we ensure that we can all feel valued and connected? Wendy's diverse projects explore our connection to the natural world, indigenous perspectives, human cognition, quantum science, integral thinking, deep ecology, relational intelligence and our shared need for meaningful community, contribution and growth.
