Ten Recommandments for Personal Empowerment is a loose autobiography based on Dana's dysfunctional up-bringing and how she empowered herself and came out the other side. Showcasing this how-to meets autobiographical approach to her writing style, Dana uses anecdotes from her personal experiences, shares what she's gleaned from these experiences, and offers insights on how to work through personal trauma in a step-by-step manner. It's actually pretty amazing! Just ask her.

“Dana’s words flow like a conversation between trusted friends in this engaging and interactive psychological masterpiece. Her raw and painfully honest relatability provides a clear and methodical explanation of what makes each and every one of us tick and provides us with the tools we need to shed the ties that bind.” ~Ann Marie Skordy

What Dana has learned through the process of self-exploration is that our personal empowerment is directly linked to our ability to look within and ultimately recognize that we are all interconnected, and we are all essentially in this together. She’s learned that she didn’t just suffer; we’ve all suffered. Our humanness is based in suffering and this suffering binds us and hopefully teaches us compassion for ourselves and others along the way. What she’s also learned is, at the end of the day, you and you alone are responsible for your own suffering, and when you begin taking the steps toward releasing that suffering, then you will truly feel empowered.

Ten Recommandments for Personal Empowerment is intended to reveal how Dana has learned to navigate life’s opportunities to learn, grow, and to overcome the more challenging obstacles with more grace and less discomfort than before and eventually even embrace these opportunities and to offer some insight into how you could do the same.

Dana’s hope is to educate both adults and children through all of her writing so that they can empower themselves and work together to create a new self-empowered, unity conscious generation.

Upon completion of Ten Recommandments in 2021, Dana painted cover girl “Chloe”—a masterpiece that beautifully expresses a girl who has become fully empowered. To visit "Chloe" and other works by Dana, go to UbuntuFishGallery.com.
