Wendy Lund isn't just a powerhouse in healthcare marketing — she's also a longtime family friend, thanks to her working alongside my sister Lisa years ago -- also in healthcare marketing -- then becoming neighbors and "besties." As a result, I also know Wendy is a longtime advocate for women's health, and is as passionate about promoting good information as she is about, well, her dog, Yogi! Yogi And that is one cute dog: spoiler alert in case you miss the video. As Chief Client Officer of Health@WPP, former CEO of GCI Health, and former Chief Communications Officer at Organon, Wendy has been a force in transforming how we talk about — and invest in — women's healthcare. In May 2025 she's being honored with the Pinnacle Award by MM+M for her leadership and impact. The Imperative for Information and Innovation around Women's Health - Health@WPP at SXSW In yet another heartfelt, informative, and often funny conversation apropos Women's History Month, Wendy explains why Health@WPP believes wise innovation, factual and frequent information around women's healthcare is an imperative. Those are the pillars driving that progress — and why that's not just good for society, but great for business.
Wendy Lund, Chief Client Officer, Health@WPP. Wendy, a sufferer of endometriosis, a famously painful condition, was drawn to the healthcare industry early in her career when she went to work for the National League for Nursing, Planned Parenthood and then made the move to agency/corporate side. She's since dedicated her career to getting the word out to patients about health and wellness solutions. We wanted to get Wendy's take on how we shape and disperse better narratives about the female experience outside of the doctor's office, including that of pain.
With more than three decades of experience as a Health Studies Professor teaching physiology, pathophysiology & pharmacology, Wendy understands the biology of stress and resiliency. She extensively investigated the experience of trauma in first responders and has built a case for how and why compassionate-based mindfulness theory and practices can build proactive resiliency in vulnerable sectors for her MSc in Mindfulness Studies. She has helped to pioneer curricula for those who engage with trauma in their work so that they reduce their risk of psychological injury in the line of duty. She has shared her vision in conferences as a speaker/plenary, in many workshops, and in print. Wendy believes it's about being proactive, not reactive, with our mental health. Her vision is to help others redefine wealth in their workplace and lives. https://www.wellthmanagement.ca/team IG - @wellth_management.inc Twitter - @WLund100 @WorkWithHeartWM Sponsorship: @southwest_fire_academy Editing Credit: @bradshea Marketing: @premiummixmarketingco Logistics: @haileyfirefit

Wendy Lund is a women's health advocate, adviser, and activist with more than 30 years of experience in marketing and communications. After working at Planned Parenthood, the National League of Nursing, and some of the country's leading healthcare communications firms, Wendy joined Organon, the largest women's health company of its kind. As Chief Communications Officer, she's working to change how women's health is approached, treated, shaped, and especially talked about. In this conversation with Lippe Taylor CEO Paul Dyer, Wendy gets into her career history, how to merge your passion and purpose with your career, and how the movie Erin Brockovich inspired her approach to leadership. Here are some key takeaways from this conversation with Wendy. Listen. When they were launching, Organon initiated a comprehensive listening tour where they spoke to women everywhere about their unmet healthcare needs. This is rare for healthcare companies, who usually focus on doctors, but Organon's mission is to serve their female patient base as intently as possible, which is why they focused on listening from the day they launched in 140 markets and then made major decisions based on what they found out. Take it personally. Wendy cites the movie and true story of Erin Brockovitch as inspiring her approach to bridging her passion with her profession. There's a line where Erin is told she is taking things too personally, to which she replies: "Not personal? That is my time, my sweat, and my time away from my kids—If that's not personal, I don't know what Is." This stuck with Wendy and inspired her approach to her work. Wendy takes her work personally because she takes the mission of helping women across the world personally. Taking it personally has made the difference in pushing through difficulties and complications because, for Wendy, it's a matter of mission. It's cliche, but when your heart is in something, you will naturally work harder and move mountains to achieve it. Finding and, better yet, creating those causes and missions within your career will make all the difference towards your overall impact. Just go for it. Wendy cites a tendency for a lot of young professionals to wait for the perfect moment to take the leap, be more ambitious, take on bigger projects, etc. Wendy's advice: just go for it. Regardless of your perceived credentials or qualifications, taking big projects on head-first, regardless of feeling ready, can actually be the catalyst that gives you those very qualifications you want.

In this Expert Guest episode of the Teenage Kicks podcast Helen Wills talks to Wendy Lund about how mindfulness and gratitude can help to change a teen's mindset and their outcomes. Most importantly, Wendy gives parents easy tips on helping teenagers to develop a gratitude habit that doesn't involve meditating, journalling or spending time talking about their feelings! Helen says "This episode was like therapy to record. Honestly, even if you take none of the advice to recreate with your teen, it's worth a listen for your own wellbeing!" Teenagers don't have time to listen to adults insisting that they need to spend time on their mental health. But as parents we can encourage them into daily practices that help them see what's good about their lives. What are the benefits of gratitude? Wendy says "practicing any positive emotion... builds neuronal pathways in the brain... and if you're busy doing those you cannot be busy with thoughts of anxiety and depression... Thoughts produce our emotions, which drive our behaviour." So it's incremental. It improves your mental healthPromotes proactive and prosocial behaviourDecreases materialismDecreases narcissismDecreases depression and anxietyImproves academic scoresImproves life satisfaction scoresImproves compassion Mindfulness resources from Wendy: Make Stress Your Friend - a brilliant TED talk by Kelly McGonigalVideo: An Experiment in Gratitude: The Science of Happiness.

With over 3 decades of experience as a professor of health sciences, Wendy Lund understands the physiology and pathophysiology of ease and disease. She became concerned over the educational gap that existed in preparing first responders to engage with trauma and tragedy and the growing number of deaths by suicides in vulnerable populations. Motivated to fill this gap, Wendy went back to school in her early 50's. Her graduation in 2017 from the University of Aberdeen makes her one of very few globally with a MSc in mindfulness studies. Her research built a case for why proactive strategies matter in training and sustaining a resilient mind. Grateful for her career in academia, she retired early to provide others with an understanding of how to create and cause your mental health, not simply avoid disease. She founded Wellth Management to fill a gap and inspire individuals and organisations to redefine wealth using evidence-based theory and strategies to create wellness and build stress tolerance. In this episode Wendy talks about: Her definition of mindfulness. Her decision to return to education to pursue a MSc in mindfulness studies. Why mindfulness and being present is important for first responders. Steps to implement mindfulness in to daily practice. The creation of her company Wellth Management and her free resource: Reach for Resiliency.
