Donna Cameron spent her career as a business owner working with nonprofit organizations and causes. She served them as an executive, consultant, trainer, and volunteer. It was there where she saw kindness in action on a daily basis and was awed by its power to transform. While she considered herself a reasonably nice person (with occasional lapses into bitchiness), she knew that true kindness was a step above. When she committed to a yearlong deep-dive into kindness, she learned that it takes practice, patience, and understanding… and a sense of humor helps, too. Her book, A Year of Living Kindly, has earned more than a dozen awards and is now in its fourth printing, with foreign language versions in production. Donna lives with her husband in the Pacific Northwest.
