Our final guest of Season 1 of our podcast is Anne Cholawo, author of Island on the Edge, the book which has been chosen to launch our AudaciousNess Book Club on 1 December. Anne took the bold decision to swap her hectic urban lifestyle in 1980s England for one of rural isolation and self-sufficiency on a tiny Scottish island, without mains electricity, medical services, shops or any other modern amenities. There were 17 people living on the island when she moved there; today Anne and her husband Robert are the only ones remaining. In this fascinating interview, Anne talks about:
- what it was that drew her to the home and the lifestyle of her dreams
- how she dealt with adversity and challenges in the beginning
- the need to have a single-minded determination to achieve your goals
- the importance of building the option of failure into bold decisions
- the spiritual awakening she experienced while living on the island
- what compelled her to publish her life story
Anne’s book Island on the Edge is published by Birlinn.
