ABOUT IVANČICA SMITH
Author. Publisher. Builder of Resilient Voices.After three decades of juggling careers, kids, and more life curveballs than I can count, I’ve added two titles I’m most proud of: published author and founder of Ivanelle Publications.Through my books - ranging from Japanese aesthetics (Shibui: Eighteen Japanese Words for Beauty and Reflection) to creative mindfulness (The Art of Mandalas)- I’m building something that lasts longer than deadlines and job titles. My upcoming book, How to Hold It Together When You’re Falling Apart, is a deeply personal and hopeful work-in-progress, born from resilience and survival.Ivanelle Publications is my way of shaping not just my own words, but creating a future platform for other independent voices who deserve to be heard.Alongside this, I steer SEL Stars, my social-emotional learning initiative dedicated to helping children, families, and companies build resilience, self-awareness, and confidence. Because I believe stories - whether in books or workshops - are tools for survival and growth.And yes, I still wear all the other hats: team assistant, strategist, organiser, and single mum of two opinionated young adults. I’ve been called endlessly resourceful, a creator of order out of chaos, and someone who can turn even a PowerPoint into a story worth listening to. What I bring to the table:– Published author with growing readership on Amazon KDP– Founder & publisher at Ivanelle Publications– Social-emotional learning advocate (SEL Stars)– Versatile professional with background in executive operations, education, and entrepreneurship– Storyteller who knows how to connect raw human experience with resilience and hopeLife hasn’t been simple, but that’s where the stories live. And stories are what keeps us standing.
