She Who Dares, Wins
. ALANA STOTT MBE
 
Today I had the pleasure of interviewing Alana Stott, author, philanthropist, producer, entrepreneur, publisher, and member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire. Oh and did I mention Mrs Aberdeen/Mrs Scotland Winner? 

What stood out the most for me was her humility, pragmatism and ability to provide and show action steps for success.

 During our conversation, Alana shared her experiences working with vulnerable women and raising awareness about mental health, particularly in the context of human trafficking. She stressed the importance of collaboration among charities and shared her insights as a charity contributor and how to ask for money.  
In fact, this is the title of her latest book- dropping 23 April  https://linktr.ee/alanastott I asked Alana crowd sourced questions like 

“What’s the biggest lesson learned from a failure?” 
“How do you prioritise your tasks/actions each day”- AWESOME answer btw. “To what do you contribute your success to being awarded your title?”

 Alana also talked about her training as a protection officer or bodyguard and how it influenced her parenting style. We discussed the media attention towards Prince Harry and Meghan Markle and Alana's inspiration for writing books. It's a fascinating conversation, and I'm sure you'll enjoy listening to it.

 Additionally, Alana's husband, Dean Stott, is a former British Special Forces soldier and a record-breaking adventurer.  He is known for his charity work and his dedication to supporting military veterans. Dean has completed numerous endurance challenges, including cycling the length of the Americas in a record-breaking 99 days.  Alana and Dean share a passion for philanthropy and have worked together on various charitable projects. They are also proud parents to their 3 kids and prioritize family time despite their busy schedules. Alana spoke about how Dean's experiences have influenced her own work and how they support each other's endeavors. 

 Alana Stott is a philanthropist and true multi-hyphenate with a unique list of professional achievements that include sales professional, bodyguard, Mrs. Scotland, CEO, writer, and producer.   She founded Wolfraven Inc. as a vehicle to help tell amazing and inspirational stories, including her own, while fiercely advocating for causes aimed at making the world a better place.  Alana has written her inspirational memoir, “She Who Dares;” the game changing book “How to Ask For Money” and a series of empowering children’s books. She is producing multiple television series and film projects, including a high-profile collaborative streaming series that turns “reality TV” on its head, a feature-length documentary about the triumph of the human spirit, and an international suspense thriller with a theme of female empowerment.  Alana was awarded The Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (MBE) for her service to vulnerable women and mental health awareness on the Kings New Years Honors list 2023.  
Overall, Alana and Dean are a dynamic duo who are making a positive impact in their respective fields. You can find Alana at www.alanastott.com
