About Dana
Dana Priyanka Hammond is a bestselling author, speaker, and songwriter whose life and work are rooted in resilience, faith, and transformation.
Born in Pune, India, her journey began with childhood abandonment and adversity, but instead of allowing her story to define her limits, she chose to turn it into a message that now impacts lives around the world.
Dana has been mentioned in Forbes and has appeared across a range of news and media outlets.
Through her books, Dana shares powerful real-life experiences that guide readers through healing, identity, and purpose. As a songwriter, she extends that message beyond the page, writing music that reflects the emotional journey of overcoming pain, rediscovering self-worth, and walking in faith.
She is the founder of Dana Speaks, a self-paced, faith-based healing platform created to make emotional wellness accessible and practical through digital workbooks, courses, and community support.
Dana is also a mental health advocate, partnering with Caring with Compassion Community to support individuals through peer connection, outreach, and compassionate care. She also founded a publishing platform that helps purpose-driven individuals turn completed manuscripts into professionally published books.
