A SERIES OF SIX SNAPSHOT CONVERSATIONS WITH MELANIE PLEDGER

01: A JOURNEY HOME

So this is what happened when a professional film-maker, conversationalist and connector of people (Andrew Lopez) met with Melanie Pledger and asked six very simple questions. This first video is in response to the question “What is DNA Light Up?”

“We’ve been trained to be ‘human-thinkings’ or ‘human-doings’. This is about being human-BEINGS so that the rest is in much clearer, better alignment.”

What’s your take on being able to tap into our place of knowing – our SQ, intuition, gut instinct? What’s your name for it, and how easy or difficult do you find it is to access?

Welcome to this series of twenty light-hearted videos:

“Pledger & Bott – What Do They Know?”

Each short film shares a simple, practical tool that can help us to stay
centred and grounded, regardless of whatever’s going on around us.

We created these videos shortly before the first lockdown,
in response to an inner nudge to contribute something useful
as the world begins adjusting to a 'new normal’.
Our intention: to share nuggets of light that could support us all in
feeling comfortable in a climate of uncertainty.

These useful, simple, fun tools and techniques form part of the DNA Light Up toolbox. Expect laughter, cheekiness, bonkersness …
all wrapped around some interesting and useful ideas.
We hope you enjoy them.

A collection of real-life stories

that shine a light on what it means to break free from struggles that many of us will experience at one time or another. This is a book written by ordinary people. Each unique voice bravely shares his or her experience, with a rawness and vulnerability that cuts to the core of the challenges that many of us face.

These stories of pain and struggle, resilience and triumph, will inspire and bring hope. It will also give an insight into how Light Up was born and the difference that it makes.

What would you do if your world fell apart
not just once but many times over?

Mel's autobiography is an engrossing and inspiring account of extraordinary resilience in the face of relentless battles and adversity. Abuse, bereavement, betrayal, manipulation, rejection ... and a dogged determination to keep going.

It would be easy to imagine this as a tale of doom and gloom, yet Mel’s story is no misery memoir. Far from it.

First published in 2012, the book achieved a host of five-star Amazon reviews.

This second edition has an uplifting update - it tells the story of how DNA Light Up was born. The Light Up journey has now helped thousands to find the inner strength and resilience to beat depression, anxiety, confidence issues, addictive behaviours and much more, and has been experienced and endorsed by health professionals and heads of education (among others).
