Trace Dann – Coach, Mentor, Helper and 'Outdoorsy' Type Guy

Home

Hi, nice of you to drop in to my new website. I’m giving away all the corporate pretence and the image management and returning to being myself, having a laugh and helping people.

I have had my share of ups and downs in life but still managed to drag myself out long enough to qualify for a seniors’ card. Now it’s time to stop trying to impress others and try to do some good for myself and for others.

There will still be a serious side to what I do but this site will be a lot more lighthearted and fun than in the past. If you are after the serious stuff on mental health support and how I managed to get through serious depression, PTSD and other stuff, go and check out www.captainkrankypants.com. Over there I will be a lot more serious and will really focus on the mental health stuff.

This site will integrate with Captain Krankypants to provide one location for information on what activities I will be having that will share my knowledge and experiences in an attempt to help you. Things like public talks, therapy sessions, bushwalks, etc.

News

Despite, technically, being semi-retired, there is still a lot going on in my life. I am still experiencing new things, still looking for ways to help people and I am still causing havoc on social media. In fact, most new stuff will be on my social media pages tracy.dann.18 or captainkrankypants so check them out routinely. I will try to work out how to do a direct Facebook feed onto this page, I used to be able to do it but now Facebook has changed things, its going to take me a while to work it out.

There will be considerable flippancy from now on (‘there always has been,’ I hear some of you yelling) but there will still be access to the serious stuff if you want to catch up, talk or maybe just need a little advice. It’s going to be exciting, fun and very interesting.

So anyway, let’s get on with our lives and you keep an eye on this page to see what is happening and laugh at, or with, me. Let’s not bother about things we can’t affect and just enjoy what time we have left on this world.

Contact

Sorry, no direct email address. It seems all sorts of untoward characters harvest them and use them to do things other than what they are intended for. Instead write what you want to tell me in the form and it will email me – without letting the nasty chaps know my email address. I will get back you – honestly.

And now it seems the scalliwags have a way to randomly leave unsolicited and annoying messages using the form that used to be here. Thanks to them, I have now deleted the form so the best way to contact me is to message me on Facebook.
