Inca Warrior

Ally Kelly is a unique blend of Irish and Peruvian descent. Depression has affected the women in her family for many generations. Her personal experience with mental health struggles and family experience with suicidal behaviour has fuelled her passion for mental health awareness.

"My first memory of mental health in the family was from the age of six when I became a carer for my mother who has been suicidal several times in her life. Statistics show that because of my history, I am at higher risk of suicide and ongoing mental health issues. I refuse to accept this. I am living proof that as individuals, we can change this reality." 

At twenty-two, Ally channelled her energy into creating Mind Blank, a health promotion charity which aims to reduce the risk of suicide through interactive theatre. For the past eight years, her unique charity and its award-winning programs have directly impacted over 30,000 young Australians.

 In her book, "Inca Warrior a Journey to Awaking the Inner Voice", Ally will lead you on a spiritual undertaking. She shares intimate moments in her life story that turned her into the leader she is today. It will inspire community action and active self-reflection.

This autobiography is a three-part series regarding Ally Kelly's experiences living with mental health issues in the family. It is a heartfelt, tenacious journey. You will laugh, you will cry, and you will empathise for all the characters in her quirky diary pages. Her life purpose supports personal growth and encourages all who read this book to invest in personal development to help become the best versions of themselves.

A must read for anyone who needs a reminder of hope and tenacity to continue to move forward with life's adventures.
