Wendy Super Accounting

A few days ago, I had the opportunity to recognise something in myself that I don’t normally pay much attention to: my beauty.

I was invited to be a model for a makeup class with a very well-known and talented professional. As I watched her work and saw the final result, I started reflecting on the stories we tell ourselves throughout our lives.

Growing up, my parents always told me I was very intelligent. That message was repeated so often that I grew up knowing intelligence was one of my strengths. Beauty, on the other hand, was never something I paid much attention to, and for a long time I simply assumed I wasn’t particularly beautiful.

It made me think: How often do we create a story about ourselves and eventually start believing that story is the truth?

The same thing can happen with money.

There are so many women who have spent years telling themselves, “I’m not good with numbers,” “finance isn’t for me,” or “I just don’t understand these things.” And after hearing that story in their own minds for long enough, they can start to believe they simply don’t have the ability.

But what if that story isn’t true?

Just as a makeup professional can help bring out something that was already there but that you didn’t normally pay much attention to, the right support can help you understand your finances, build your knowledge and develop confidence.

You don’t need to know everything from the beginning. Sometimes you simply need someone who can explain things in a way that makes sense to you and support you through the process.

I would love to help more women change the story from “finance isn’t for me” to:

“I can understand this. I can be involved. I can take control of my finances.” ❤️

What story have you been telling yourself about money?

Networking, learning and connecting with our local business community 🌱

A great morning with the Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce, creating a space for local businesses to connect, share ideas and keep learning.

Today, I especially enjoyed learning from Strategic 360 and its Director, Kerrily Rogers. There’s always something valuable about stepping away from the day-to-day, hearing fresh perspectives and connecting with other local business owners and professionals.

Thank you to the Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce for continuing to bring our business community together. And thank you, Kerrily, for sharing your knowledge and insights today.

At Wendy Super Accounting, we believe that strong businesses and strong communities grow through connection, collaboration and continuous learning. 💙

Building the future, together. 🤍

What a wonderful day spent with some of our newest clients and their families!

Our event was about more than learning about SMSFs. It was about creating connections, sharing experiences, asking questions, enjoying great food and meeting others who are also beginning their SMSF journey.

We loved seeing families come together, giving the kids their own space to enjoy, while the adults had the opportunity to learn and connect.

At Wendy Super Accounting, we believe that a strong journey starts with the right support and the right people around you.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the day so special. We look forward to continuing this journey together.

What a day of learning, leadership and connection with BNI! ❤️❤️

Yesterday started with our weekly BNI meeting, where I had the pleasure of announcing our new Chapter President. Then it was off to the 2026 BNI Directors & Ambassadors Summit, and I came home with plenty to think about… but, more importantly, plenty to put into action.

One message from Jay Verrico, speaking about tackling burnout and navigating mindset, really stayed with me.

It made me reflect on something we sometimes forget:

If everyone knew how hard it is to start and build a business, I think we would all be a little more intentional about supporting local and small businesses.

Behind every small business is a person taking risks, solving problems, learning, adapting and showing up again the next day.

Then Lynne Kurelek spoke about creating high-performing teams through leadership, using a children's book about basketball to deliver the message. Such a clever and memorable way to teach! 🏀

My biggest takeaway? Attitude and character matter just as much as capability.

You can teach someone a process. You can develop skills. You can provide training.

But qualities such as integrity, kindness, willingness to learn and being a good human being are much harder to teach.

We finished the day with Carly Woods and “Accelerate with AI”, another reminder that technology is moving quickly and there are so many opportunities for us to keep learning and improving the way we work.

I loved the learning. I loved the conversations. I loved the takeaways.

But the most important part comes next:

What action am I going to take with what I learned?

Because knowledge is valuable, but applying it is where change happens. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who shared their knowledge and energy yesterday.

And a little challenge for all of us this weekend: support a local or small business. A purchase, referral, recommendation, review or even sharing their post can mean more than you realise.

Most businesses aren’t built in isolation. They grow through relationships, collaboration, and the support of a strong community.

A few days ago, I had the opportunity to connect with local business owners through the Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce, strengthening connections within our local community.

We also had a bit of fun checking out the aviation simulator at the University of Southern Queensland! It was a great reminder that networking isn’t just about exchanging business cards. It’s about sharing experiences, getting to know people and building genuine relationships.

For me, being part of the local business community is about more than growing Wendy Super Accounting. It’s also about building trusted connections that can benefit the people we work with.

When you become a client of Wendy Super Accounting, you’re not just working with us. You’re connecting with a wider community of business owners and professionals who are ready to support, collaborate and help when needed.

Because business, just like flying, is better when you have the right people around you.

I'm getting back into Zumba and Pilates… and there's a reason behind this decision. 💛

Through my work supporting individuals and families with their Self-Managed Super Funds and retirement planning, I've had the opportunity to see many different ways people arrive at this stage of life.

And something has really made me reflect: we can prepare financially for retirement, but we also need to prepare physically to enjoy it.

I've seen people reach retirement with the resources they've worked so hard to build, but whose health no longer allows them to enjoy this new chapter as they had hoped.

And it reminds me that retirement isn't built with money alone.

It's also built through the habits we create today; moving our bodies, looking after what we eat, taking care of our health, and making time for the people we love. ❤️

That's why I'm getting back into Zumba and Pilates. Not because I'm perfect or have all my habits sorted, but because I want to keep taking small steps.

Just as every contribution can add to our financial future, every small healthy habit today can add to the quality of life we enjoy tomorrow.

My invitation is simple: while we're building the wealth we want for retirement, let's also build the health and the life we want to enjoy when we get there.

A great retirement needs balance.

What small step are you taking today for your future self?
