Mukesh Bajaj is a visionary and purpose-driven founder of NexZen Accounting and a Lead Fulfilment Coach with over 20 years of experience across various industries. In 2011, Mukesh started his own accounting company to address three significant issues in the industry: The high failure rate of standalone small and medium businesses. The lack of wealth or cash flow for business owners at retirement age. The focus of accountants on compliance and reporting instead of proactively guiding business owners to create sustainable and profitable businesses. Mukesh has successfully solved these problems for his clients and is now taking his quest a step further. Inspired by the vision of having a computer on every desk and in every home, Mukesh's vision is for every human to achieve financial freedom and live a fulfilled life. His mission is to guide 15,100 people towards achieving this goal. Even if he were to leave this world before completing his mission, he would find fulfillment in knowing that he lived every moment dedicated to this path. Mukesh Bajaj is the author of the book "7 Steps to a Fulfilled Life," which is launching on November 6 this year. What sets Mukesh apart is his creation of the 7 Steps Fulfilment System, a universal process that can be followed by anyone in any situation. This system is designed to help you define what you want and overcome the obstacles holding you back so you can achieve your goals while feeling a sense of fulfillment. In his book, Mukesh shares his journey and the step-by-step process of how he transformed from a "headless chicken" to a fulfilled human being, ultimately finding his life’s purpose in helping people achieve financial freedom and live fulfilled lives. His unique blend of wisdom, storytelling, and practical advice makes "7 Steps to a Fulfilled Life" a must-read for anyone ready to transform their life.

USA Today Best-selling author MaryAnn Clarke is a Chatelaine Grand Prize winner and Next Generation Indie Book Award finalist for The Art of Enchantment, first in the Life is a Journey series about young women on journeys abroad who discover themselves and fall in love while getting embroiled in someone else’s problems. Her Having it All series is about professional women struggling to balance the challenge and fulfillment of their careers with their search for identity, love, family and home. The first book in her newest small town steamy romance series, The Reporter’s UNLIKELY Reunion, won runner up in the 2024 Indie Writer’s Project Contest.

Always eager to fill blank pages and empty canvases with ideas swirling in her head, MaryAnn set out to write emotionally engaging stories that walk a tight rope between intelligent Women’s Fiction and heart-warming Romance.

A polymath who studied Fine Arts, Urbanism, Architecture and Gerontology at university on both coasts of Canada, she turned to her first love, writing stories, when she realized she could have more fun with fewer rules as an author, than working in an office as an architect, or in a university as a researcher. When not writing, she meditates while hiking wooded mountain trails, does yoga and Pilates to fend off decrepitude, reads eclectically, contemplates wormholes, experiments with painting abstract expressionism, kills plants and tries not to burn dinner while solving her next plot problem. Now that her chick has flown the coop, Clarke lives on beautiful Vancouver Island, Canada with her husband and cats. Although she knows she lives in Paradise, she still loves traveling the world in search of romance, art, good food and new story inspiration.
