Anna started her YouTube channel when she was 53 years old to share how she healed from complex PTSD and childhood trauma. Growing up in a neglectful commune and surviving a violent assault left her with severe PTSD that traditional talk therapy only made worse. Everything changed when she discovered simple writing and meditation techniques to fix her nervous system dysregulation. Instead of keeping these tools to herself, Anna became known as the Crappy Childhood Fairy to help others who feel broken and stuck find real relief.
