Children of immigrants can be caught between cultures, or they can embrace both and build a business that is inspired by their heritage.

Wendy Jensen was a corporate executive who became an author, artist, and the founder of Scandinavian Hearts.

What started as a passion for sharing her family’s Scandinavian traditions has grown into a business built on meaningful stories, handmade gifts, and cultural connection. I’ve written four Amazon best-selling children’s books and created a line of home décor that celebrate Nordic heritage.

In this episode of Rest and Recreation, the work life balance podcast from Abeceder Wendy describes host Michael Millward how she built Scandinavian Hearts.

They explore Scandinavian culture and the values that underpin it, and the elements that have influenced the world.
