Welcome. I'm Bronnie Ware.
I am delighted you have arrived here and appreciate the opportunity to support your life.
I am best known publicly as the author of the international bestselling memoir, The Top Five Regrets of the Dying.
In my heart, I am more focused on being a creative soul, one who dares to be courageous and let life lead as much as possible.
Blending words and nature photos was how my creative journey began. I first consciously opened my heart to my creative expression in 1997.
It was a slow start, but eventually led to me taking the leap and leaving my banking career behind forever.
It is an honour to have been bestowed the regrets of the dying to share, and for living the experiences that led me through that time and since.
My book has been read by over a million people in 32 languages. There’s even a movie in the pipeline. My other books have also helped an enormous amount of people.
It’s been a wide-ranging life so far. Now I find the full circle coming around again, with a call to vlogging. Once more, I mix words and images.
This time it’s while also writing a novel, continuing to honour the global message of the five regrets, managing physical challenges, being a solo mum, and still living at a gentle pace.
Yes, it’s possible.
I’ve become fabulous with boundaries and leaving space between it all. I’ve also learnt to receive support. (None of us are meant to do it all on our own, not even the flowers.)
These days I live free of regrets. Truly free.
It’s from a blend of compassion for my old self and the mistakes she made, and not caring a hoot how I am perceived in the world.
The dying people I cared for helped me understand how irrelevant the opinions of others are in the end, and my courage has set me free of such cares before my deathbed days arrive. I’ll always be grateful for that.
Being regret-free really is freedom.
I am going to die one day.
So are you. Yes - you’re going to die.
It’s easy to assume it will be when you're ninety-five and in your sleep, wearing your favourite nightdress.
But just in case you’re one of the 98% of other people who die earlier, it’s worth considering your time now as the incredible blessing it is.
I repeatedly witnessed the pain and anguish of regrets in dying people.
I wouldn’t wish it on anyone, including you.
I offer this website as a place for you to find inspiration: to support you to find courage, to set yourself free of regrets, and to allow all that your heart wishes for to flow through.
I share my world with you from New South Wales, Australia.
I also send my love.
I'm grateful you're here.
Welcome.
