Reason for Living
New Jersey born Wendy Ida is on a mission to change lives around the world. Although Wendy Ida may appear “over the top” in her dedication to fitness, health and self-empowerment, she has not forgotten her own journey from despair to triumph. She is a Domestic Violence Survivor who was in poor shape, bad health, and had low self-esteem. But she is grateful to have beaten the odds.
She didn’t begin her own health and exercise journey until age 43, but she has managed to improve her health, lose 80 pounds and hold onto it as a grandmother! – It’s no wonder why Wendy feels sharing her self taught approach to mental readiness, self worth and teaching, preaching and inspiring others to live their potential can not only change the world, but it is her reason for living.
Wendy has a degree in accounting and worked as a Corporate Accountant for 20 years before turning to health and wellness. Now after 30 years of changing lives and rocking the worlds of many, she continues to teach, preach, and inspire others to reinvent their lives and live their potential through mental readiness, self-worth and physical challenges. Wendy walks her talk and often says…
“ITS NEVER TOO LATE TO TAKE BACK YOUR LIFE”!
