Real Stories. Genuine Impact. Global Inspiration.
Discover how A Journey of Riches has touched lives, empowered voices, and helped aspiring authors become bestselling storytellers.



Being part of A Journey of Riches was a deeply meaningful experience. Writing has always been part of my healing process, but this opportunity brought something much deeper. It invited me to revisit my own story with new eyes and to reconnect with parts of myself and my ancestry that had long been silent.
It felt like more than a writing project it was a soul invitation. A moment of remembrance, healing, and reconnection.
I’m deeply grateful for the chance to share my voice and, through it, support others who may need to hear that transformation is possible. That healing can be gentle, brave, and real.
Thank you for honoring so many voices, and for the kindness, guidance, and support shared by all throughout this meaningful experience.

John Spender was instrumental in helping me publish The Courage Book. Through his patient and insightful writing workshops, he not only guided me but also supported other authors in overcoming creative blocks and developing the skills needed to write compelling chapters. His workshops were filled with kindness and compassion, offering constructive feedback that truly elevated our work.
John's dedication to editing ensured that every chapter received personal attention, resulting in a polished and cohesive book. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to share our stories proudly with our communities and combine our efforts to create something impactful. The final result is a book we are incredibly proud of, now available on Amazon and our websites. John's guidance made the entire process an enriching and empowering experience."

Being a contributing author in A Journey of Riches: Living the Paradigm of Kindness was a deeply meaningful experience. It was my first time being published in a book, and the entire process—from writing my chapter to collaborating with the editor and publisher—was incredibly supportive and encouraging. I also had the chance to connect with fellow authors from around the world, each bringing their own unique voice and story. This experience not only expanded my understanding of the writing and publishing process, but also affirmed my dream of writing my own book one day. I’m so grateful to have been part of such a heart-centered project.

It was such a pleasure to have collaborated with John Spender and the other authors while writing my Chapter Story for the Journey of Riches, Messages From The Heart book. Also thank you to Ivan and all team involved in this project. There was no real pressure (except in meeting the deadline) because there was freedom in writing from your heart. Being a co-author with 14 other wonderful authors made my experience deeply satisfying. I am so elated and grateful for this experience. There is no doubt that I will want to do this again in the future.

I chose to John and his team to support myself and a group of seven other writers in the process of creating our first anthology/education series. John had already supported hundreds of other writers and had over twenty-five books published, so I knew I would be in good hands.
What I enjoyed in the process was having a person that I could ask questions to and be guided with every single step. There are so many little steps that I would never of thought about, it's not just writing, there are all these other background steps like coding that they just took care of. He has great team of people who are all highly experienced that would step in and take over with whatever was needed such as editing, the cover and admin stuff.
John has a huge heart for empowering authors to trust their own message and then creating that into a book. He was able to use his direct experience to guide me on important decisions that I really wouldn't have known what was needed. I felt supported, guided and had somebody they're for me every step of the way.
And we even made it as international best-sellers in seven countries through his marketing and promoting. Thank you so much John, Ivan and the rest of your team for being a part of this legacy book "A NEW PARADIGM OF EDUCATION."

So, if you just met him and are thinking of working with him, then go ahead, because I can assure you that you won’t regret it.

I had the pleasure of collaborating with John on the book, “An Attitude Of Gratitude”. At first I was a little unsure and unfamiliar with his books. On researching and finding out a little more, I was delighted and quite surprised at the amount of books and the heart felt messages of each one.
Each one having messages wanting to serve and pay if forward. I was honoured to share in the experience, so much so am I am collaborating in a second book!
John is incredibly supportive and through all my crazy questions has been nothing but kind and generous nothing being too hard or to silly. I never considered myself an author or with a story that’s worth sharing, although with John’s support and knowledge I have come to the understanding everyone has a story worth sharing. I’m glad I followed my heart and intuition and gave it go

Working with John and his team was easy, he is straight forward, offering different insights and perspectives to my way of thinking and view of the world. This is really helpful to assist with the way I think and write. I do a lot of thinking and writing at work. So I wasn’t sure if I had the time and energy to come home and change into a different mode of writing, but with John’s easy-going nature, support and insights made the experience fun and enjoyable.

I found working with John to be an empowering process and thank you for taking the time to help me tell my story in a way that I felt proud of and that readers could connect with my message. The deadlines caused me anxiety because I had so many other things going on. I didn’t want to be the only author holding up the process and I didn’t want to let you down. I am so glad you held me to our deadlines! I am grateful that you asked me to share my story In Search of Happiness. This was the perfect book for me to share the experiences in my life that lead me to become aware that happiness is a choice. I am also so grateful to call you my friend because of our experience working together on this book.
