During her 15 year career as a missionary and respected business professional, she experienced a mental health crisis that led her to ask the question, “What are the truly vital ingredients to human flourishing?” This launched her into a passionate study of cultural ecosystems and the necessary conditions for human thriving. Angela believes that as a woman pursues wholeness in the different arenas of her life she will become a pillar on which others can lean upon to become whole.

A devoted student of January & Ryan Donovan for nine years she is passionate to share the same hope she has been given through their model and example, with others, through The Woman School. She has since become a Strategist, thought-leader and highly sought after speaker for her vulnerable, heartfelt message on sustainable living in the heart of the Father and the new mindsets & skillsets we must develop in order to thrive in our ever changing world.

Angela and her husband Bill have left city life and have settled in an orchard garden in Montana on Flathead Lake near Glacier National Park. They are the Co-Founders of New Eden Strategies and have one daughter.
