Anne De Nada
How did she get started? During her first 20 years, she experienced trauma and because there was no support system, the only place she found to go was inward and pray for help. This is how she began to keep a diary after her parents passed away when she was a teenager. Her inner world was too chaotic to deal with until she finally discovered professional health. In the meantime, she wrote in her diary crying a lot while pouring her heart out. Being brought up in emotional and financial poverty, she was desperate to get out and the only way in those days was via an education. Even though only 10% of high school children went on to university, she did everything she could to eventually make that happen. She was born in Sydney Australia and as soon as she could, she needed to leave her scene of trauma and travel which became her way of running away from her inner chaos. She travelled to New Zealand and went to Otago University where she met her fiancé who travelled to Ottawa, Canada to obtain his Ph.D. There, she also completed her degree. Her hobbies had since developed from that point. She became a world traveller, a hiker—she hiked the AT trail for 6 months in 1997—, downhill skier, a swimmer, an artist a poet and writer—mother of three and a grandmother of four. She has also dabbled in real estate and purchased her first piece of land at 16—a businesswoman creating 5 to 6 small businesses while being a single woman raising three small children.
