WENDY DEACON

Wendy started DestinationU in 2019 and through her community and platform, she is a champion for aging adventurously. She is on a mission to resource and empower women over 40 to reimagine what’s possible and live with way more adventure, fun & fulfillment.  

Wendy had a successful career, but after a series of personal life changes, she decided it was time for a seismic shift to create something much more personally fulfilling. She authored several books, started building the DestinationU community and started setting up and leading more customized group adventure trips.  

She previously spent 20 years in preventive health as a national non-profit leader, international speaker and world class athlete but she still wanted more. Wendy was increasingly focused on intentional and experiential living with healthy aging and she met many women like her on the same journey. A whole new world opened up.  

Today, Wendy makes her home in Colorado, exploring new places and trying it all. She is a trusted personal guide & advisor, sharing how-to recommendations, key brands and iconic trips and meetup events customized for women over 40. She leads a bold community of amazing women connecting & sharing their stories, reimagining what is possible and prioritizing quality connections and making memories with soul-filling experiences.

Wendy encourages you to adventure out into the “wild,” both literally & figuratively, and invites you to connect with Wendy and her community at www.destinationu.net, on her Life Reimagined with Wendy Podcast, DestinationU Wendy YouTube Channel or Instagram account.
