Guest Biography:

Dana Sutton is a tutor, coach, and parent with decades of experience working with children and young adults. While raising her children, she spent evenings tutoring students from primary through to first and second year post-secondary, as well as coaching and instructing various athletics. Dana currently owns her own business providing consulting, payroll and accounting services for businesses in the Okanagan. A keen athlete while growing up, Dana enjoyed fastball, ringette, volleyball, hockey, martial arts and skiing (both in water and downhill). These days, when she isn’t busy with work or grandchildren, Dana can be found reading a book or riding her motorcycle (an Indian Scout) throughout the Okanagan, where she lives with her husband, Ray and their two Old English Sheepdogs, Guinness and Misty. Guinness, Misty and Bailey (Misty's predecessor) can be found as background characters in many of her stories.

"When I was raising my children I always focused on being open with them.  I don't believe there are any "off-limit subjects". If my children were asking about something, or had been exposed to something, then I worked hard to help them understand using age-appropriate language; even when the topic was uncomfortable for me.

When I started writing children's books, and especially with the topic in Maddie Finds Her Place, I really focused on that strategy.  My experience is that, if the language is framed well, then children at each age level receive exactly what they need and are capable of understanding the conversation."   ​-  Dana Sutton

Guest Occupation: Dave Weiss - a prominent proponent of the Flat Earth theory.
Guest Biography:

Flat Earth Dave is a prominent proponent of the Flat Earth theory and frequently appears on podcasts and interviews to discuss his views on the Flat Earth model, Gravity, and Antarctica. 

However, he was not always a believer.

Dave was born and raised on the East Coast of the United States where he began his Flat Earth journey after leaving his corporate job to start his own company.

Rumor has it, as a hobby Dave hosted a conspiracy comedy show for a few years in New York City and at the urging of his fans he looked into what he believed to be a ridiculous notion called, "Flat Earth".  Dave set out to disprove this conspiracy and discovered, to his surprise, the facts convinced him differently. Dave is now on a mission to wake up the world to the Flat Earth. 

Flat Earth Dave will be a fun, trippy, mind blowing guest that will at the very least leave yourself asking "Hmmm...is the earth really flat?!"

Guest Biography:

I am a survivor of civil war in the former Yugoslavia, have endured the trauma of being held captive, suffering torture and abuse.  But I’m one of the lucky ones having eventually escaped to the United Kingdom.
From not speaking a word of English, I went to college, supported myself through various jobs from working all hours in a dry-cleaning business, through to manning an internet café.  I saved to invest in myself, and qualified as personal trainer and nutritionist.
In tandem I began to work with charities and got involved with voluntary work to campaign against human trafficking and exploitation of women.  This led to joining the public speaking circuit, where I use my story of ‘survival to success’ to give others hope.
Additionally I qualified as a public speaking and presentation skills coach working on a global level with start-ups, through to multi-national firms across media, financial services and technology, including WPP, Dentsu, Verizon Media, Yahoo, The Telegraph, Goldman Sachs, Engie, Bloomberg, Clear View, Amobee, Google to name a few.
My latest initiative is focused on lifestyle planning and wellbeing, to optimize work performance, avoid burnout and ensure mental health is kept in check.  I provide bespoke plans based on individual needs around lifestyle goals, and work objectives including:

Exercise and activity (this doesn’t have to be about completing a marathon!)
Diet plans and nutrition, from low fat alternatives through to brainfood and supplements
Sleep, rest and downtime
The role of technology to optimize peak performance, and tracking recovery
Breathing techniques and meditation
Lifestyle planning and time management techniques

As a founder of a  fitness business and ultimately moving into the coaching circuit, I’ve successfully run my own personal training business from 2005 to 2013, focusing on delivering 5 star training, injury rehabilitation, nutritional advice and personal programs, I was lucky enough to be exposed to A-list clients from athletes and actors through to the top business people from around the world. I played a vital part in helping them achieve their dreams and helped them make gains in both their physical and mental conditioning.

I moved to Singapore in April 2014 to 2018 and I recognized the huge potential in Asia for taking a tried, tested and successful training program to market and tailoring specifically to local/regional companies and their workforce.

London has always  been home for me and it is an amazing feeling to be back.

I am finally working on my  book  and will be available on the book stores soon. I enjoy traveling all over the world speaking to audiences, both large and small about making their dreams come true and coming up and over trials and tribulations.  As well, I am uniting with women’s organizations to empower women all over the globe by bringing both practical solutions as well as inspiration.
