Anna Hodges Oginsky
Anna is an award-winning author, as well as a workshop and retreat facilitator through her small business, Heart Connected. She received her BA in Interdisciplinary Humanities from Michigan State University and her Master of Social Work degree from the University of Michigan.
Anna published her first work, My New Friend Grief: Reflections on Life and Loss, in 2016 through Balboa Press, a division of Hay House. Balboa is a self-publishing company with a focus on self-help books with a positive message.
In 2020 Anna published her debut novel, a work of middle grade fiction—The Soluna’s Way. Through that process, All Heart Press was born. While The Soluna’s Way is currently the only publication of All Heart Press, we anticipate there are many more creations to come!
Anna serves as the Director at Brighton Light House and in that capacity her intention is to curate inspiring yet functional spaces and to offer enriching personal growth and professional development programs to the community.
Anna and her husband, Daniel, opened Brighton Light House in 2021. Brighton Light House was the third entity to come from Heartmonic Holdings, a good works enterprise started by Anna and Daniel.
