I’m delighted to welcome Dr Anita Heiss to Sparta Chicks Radio this week

Anita is a proud member of the Wiradjuri Nation of central New South Wales and one of Australia’s most prolific and well-known authors. 

She has written 18 books including her latest novel, an epic tale called Bila Yarrudhanggalangdhuray (or River of Dreams).

It’s also the first time in Australia, a commercially published book has used a First Nations language for the title.

Anita enjoys eating chocolate, running and being a 'creative disruptor'.

Initially, I wanted to talk to Anita to explore her running career and how she uses running as a tool to support herself and her work. 

Yet the more research I did, the more I realised I wanted to speak to her about:

-  awareness, history and truth-telling, 

- the importance of getting comfortable with being uncomfortable and 

- the power of using your voice, sharing your story and telling your truth.
