Kylie DunnIt took Kylie Dunn 40 years, 54 TED talks and a 12-month DIY self-development program to find her way home - to herself. Born in Wollongong, NSW, the middle child of a working class family, Kylie chalked up two failed marriages and three careers befoe making the tree change to Tasmania with her wonderful partner Derek. It should have been the best of times and, in many ways, it was. And yet... that nagging little voice inside her still insisted something wasn't right; but she had no idea what was missing or how to find it. In her 40th year, Kylie decided to turn angst into action. In November 2011, inspired by literally hundreds of TED talks sharing a wide range of ideas, Kylie launched herself onto the often rocky ride she dubbed My Year of TED. The ground-breaking program Kylie designed fused the universal wisdom of TED's ideas into a pathway that led her to rediscover her authentic self, change her life and, finally, take ownership of what she wanted. These days Kylie deliberately lives so far outside her comfort zone that she feels it no longer exists - like it disappeared completely when the project ended.
