Crypto Stories: YouTuber CryptoWendyO shares how her healthcare skills helped with crypto trading

Published at: May 13, 2022

CryptoWendyO heard about Bitcoin (BTC) on the radio and decided to take a risk. Little did she know, the risk she would take would change her life in ways she never thought possible. The influencer shared her Bitcoin journey in this episode of Crypto Stories.

In her younger days, life wasn’t too kind to Wendy. According to the crypto influencer, she survived many challenges, including mental health issues, the death of her father when she was 11 years old, and growing up in poverty. For a long while, she thought that she would never be able to change her life.

However, things changed when Wendy realized that the world around her didn't care about her and the only way forward was to change her life herself. Then, she met Bitcoin. She explained that:

“I kept hearing about Bitcoin on radio. So, I decided to go ahead and take a plunge and invest, be a little bit risky. And that was kind of a really cool thing to do because I never thought in a million years that I was smart enough to teach myself to do anything.”

She also shared that her experience working in healthcare contributed to her success in crypto trading. According to Wendy, her healthcare job forced her to learn to calculate doses and communicate with many different people. She was able to apply these skills to crypto trading.

Wendy believes that these experiences helped her become a “decent trader” and online content creator. With these, she was able to create a community of like-minded individuals who were interested in going through the same life-changing journey that she went through
