I’m Vienda. Some people find me through my writing. Some through a course they took three years ago and still think about. Some through a friend who said you need to know about this woman.

I’m a writer, a mentor, a maker of things, and — depending on the day — a person with a strong sense that life should and can feel mesmerising.

I’m fascinated by how our beliefs and habits shape our lives. I studied psychology for a reason: I’m particularly interested in the fascinating tension between destiny and free will, investigating how much of our life and future we can consciously design.

My work focuses on understanding human agency and the hidden patterns that influence our life trajectories.

I regularly run live courses over at Her Way Club and offer private mentoring to individuals and creative consulting for brands.
