Wynonah Dove is an Appalachian-Australian singer, songwriter, coach, facilitator, and advocate whose work explores the intersection of creativity, wellbeing, personal growth, and human transformation.
Born and raised in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, near the Birthplace of Country Music in Bristol, Tennessee/Virginia, Wynonah grew up immersed in the storytelling traditions of Appalachia. Inspired by artists such as Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn, and the Carter Family, she has built an international career as a performer, tribute artist, songwriter, speaker, and entertainer, appearing on stages across Australia and the United States.
Alongside her music career, Wynonah has spent years supporting people through periods of change, challenge, and reinvention. Drawing from her own experiences navigating chronic illness, perimenopause, personal transformation, immigration, and spiritual exploration, she brings both lived experience and professional training to her work.
The Search for Self is a journey - avoid the Great Distraction.
Today, Wynonah works with individuals seeking greater clarity, resilience, wellbeing, and self-understanding. Her areas of interest include women’s health and midlife transition, consciousness exploration, holistic wellbeing, mindfulness, trauma-informed personal growth, and self-healing approaches that honour the connection between mind, body, and spirit.
Wynonah is currently completing a Diploma of Counselling with a Clinical Hypnotherapy Specialisation and a Certificate IV in Celebrancy. She is also a Usui Reiki Master Teacher, Women’s Circle Facilitator, and lifelong student of human potential, consciousness studies, and holistic health.
Whether performing on stage, facilitating a workshop, supporting a client, or sharing insights through writing and teaching, her mission remains the same: to help people navigate life’s transitions with greater courage, curiosity, compassion, and self-trust.
From the mountains of Appalachia to her home in Sydney, Australia, Wynonah continues to weave together music, storytelling, education, advocacy, and personal transformation in service of a more connected and meaningful life.
