Wendy Jones is a mother of four, lifelong athlete, writer, podcaster and wellness coach guiding parents and young athletes to view sports as self-discovery journeys, not just pursuits of scholarships, recruitment and medals.

She recently pivoted from a 3rd generation family farming business to launch her own company Be Better Media. Wendy has authored the book 365 Days of Optimism – Mantras for Finding Confidence, Courage, and Self Love and publishes a weekly blog called The Optimists Journal, sharing stories and insights about her journey through parenthood and the game of life.
