What’s with all the dragonflies?
When life knocked me down, hundreds of red dragonflies lifted me up.
What I learned from them was so life-changing that I’ve been writing, painting and speaking about it ever since.
Dragonflies grow their magical wings while crawling in the muck at the bottom of the pond. And so do we.
Their story has helped me change mine. And now, I’m on a mission to help others transform their muck into magic.
A joyful, inspirational book grew in my muck.
I bet there’s something special growing in yours, too.

my story.
The muck. The magic. The mission.
In my past life, I was an award-winning copywriter and Creative Director at one of the largest advertising agencies in Los Angeles. But my soul longed for something more. Unexpectedly, I was forced to find it when I lost my big fat job at 50. Sobbing in my backyard, I asked The Universe, “Am I too old to reinvent myself? Please give me a sign.”
I went for a walk and came home to find my yard filled with hundreds of red dragonflies. I learned that dragonflies spend most of their lives crawling at the bottom of a pond. And in the muck, they grow their magical wings.
Their story helped transform mine. And inspired me to rise up and find the gifts in my struggles — from losing my job to almost losing my child to addiction.
From there, my mission took flight: to uplift and inspire others to transform their muck into magic.

THAT AGE-OLD QUESTION
When my husband Will and I moved out of Los Angeles to the magical town of Ojai, people kept asking me "Are you retiring?” This video is what I had to say about that. It’s one [...]
speaking.
More than a speech, it’s a magical connection.
These days, instead of presenting ad campaigns to boardrooms full of men, I’m uplifting and inspiring rooms full of women. With wit and wisdom, paintings and poetry, I speak to groups of 40 to 400, from corporate executives to stay-at-home moms. Any woman, going through any kind of transition, challenge or change can relate to my signature talk, “From Muck To Magic.”
I share my personal story to help them reframe theirs. “Dragonflying Lessons” encourage them to find the gifts in their struggles. And remind them that “it’s never too late to soar.” No matter what size the crowd, it feels like a heart-to-heart conversation.

Wanna get unstuck from your muck?
Let’s talk.
It’s my joy to offer Intuitive Muck-To-Magic Phone Sessions.
During our 50-minute call, we’ll transcend the mental muck of the Mind together and tap into the higher wisdom of the Heart and Spirit.
You’ll receive divine guidance and practical tools to help you rise up from self-doubt and limited thinking, enabling you to move forward with more clarity, joy and possibilities.
Here are some of the gratifying comments I’ve received after the sessions:
“My session was uplifting, creative, and magical! Wendi intuitively zeroed right in on what was blocking me and suggested personalized self-nurturing activities to realign with my heart and soul’s purpose.”
“I can’t wait for my next session. The ritual Wendi shared with me was very powerful and as a result, I feel so much lighter and brighter. I have gained more clarity on my next steps and as if by “magic,” pleasant, unexpected things are happening in my life.”
“Wendi Knox has amazing gifts of creativity, compassion, insight and intuition. She used all these to get to the heart of the matter and guide me toward my next steps. Time spent with Wendi is effective, helpful, joyful and uplifting.”
“I would highly recommend working with Wendi Knox for intuitive coaching. She’s authentic and incredibly easy to work with, but most importantly she helps to guide you forward with a little magic dust sprinkled in.”
“Wendi taps into that innate wisdom that resides within us all and gently pulls out any weeds that are in the way. She confirmed what I’ve been feeling lately, as I till my soil blooming. I am walking so much stronger now on my path towards manifestation.”
“Wendi is a clear and bright channel. She brought through so much clarity on a project I was working on. When I sat down to write the next day, the words came with fluidity and ease. Thank you Wendi for uplifting and empowering me.”
“The woman has talents! Our session felt like a warm, wise and insightful hug.”
“Talking to Wendi, whooshes out the demons of self-doubt and negative perspectives. Her insightful wisdom has enabled me to look at situations with an open and curious mind. Which is something that years of cognitive behavioral therapy have failed to do.”
“Wendi is a truly beautiful, intuitive and magical soul who shines a light on the energy swirling around each of us, helping to discern – or divine – ways of being that lift us up to support and realize our deepest desires.”
“Your intuitive reading was on point… with the softened edges of truth-telling by a woman who just “knows.” Thank you for taking such good care of my psyche. And Thank you for You !!!”
“Wendi has a gift for understanding how to put your uniqueness into words the world will understand. Becoming clear on what you have to offer and knowing how to express it provides clarity on next steps to live your dream.”

Bling some magic into the world.
I’m over the moon (and rainbow) that my publisher turned some of the paintings from my book into notecards.
And then, outdid herself by putting little rhinestones on each and everyone of them.
We purposely kept them blank inside so you can add your own magic. (Hint: you can also frame them as little pieces of art. And heart.)
So, go ahead. Spread some joy. Lift some spirits. And send some sparkle out into this world.
