Our guest today is Wendy Marquenie
Wendy spent her childhood years enjoying life within a small family unit, mum, dad, her sister and herself. Wendy’s childhood years were filled with laughter and the smell of cakes and biscuits baking in the oven.
As Wendy grew and expanded her experiences, she reflected on memories and of what- if’s. The what-ifs began showing her opportunities and she discovered she had the power to change the direction of her life at any moment in time.
Life’s journey as a mother, wife, career person, author, and business owner encouraged a deep desire to leave a legacy, something to be valued by generations to come.
Due to illness, in 2016, Wendy read a book that would change the direction of her life. The book ‘You Were Born Rich’ was written by Bob Proctor. Why did it change her life? Wendy was confronted by questions and asked herself, “What is life really?” And “Who Am I?” and others along those lines.
The next few years were filled with studying, learning, attending seminars, trying to understand this material that she found so fascinating and exhilarating. Wendy was learning about herself and what makes her tick. After attending one of the seminars, Wendy wrote her first book “How to Change Your Life in Six Days” followed by “Big Girl’s Pants”. Both books reflect on the information Wendy was learning and focusing on bringing out your inner genius to achieve and succeed in life.
What if our young children had this information that empowered them on their journey of self-discovery? For this reason, Wendy wrote The Genius Books. They empower children to understand thoughts and nurture enthusiasm to create a happy life.
The Genius Books also introduce these lovely characters to inspire children (including the ‘adult children) with enquiring minds to imagine, dream, achieve and succeed. Learning a way to think, develop self-belief and confidence delivers a world of possibilities to create bright and happy futures. This is my legacy for future generations. Understanding Mindset is essential for everything we do in life and we are never too young (or too old) to tap into our inner genius.
Life is an incredible journey. Just one decision in your life can change your destiny, just like it did for Wendy.
Make your best decision and you can:
Experience it - Believe it - Do it - Love it
