Holly Bot
Author/Blogger
Holly Aho, now remarried as Holly Bot, began her blogging career earning the "Best MILBlog of the Year - US Civilian" (military blog) award in 2005, as well as being a finalist for "World's Best New Blog 2005" in the Bloggies. Initially inspired by a passion to help wounded US military soldiers and support their families, her writing career was interrupted in 2010 with an 8-year prison sentence. Released in 2018 she is motivated today by a desire to instill hope and provide help for those affected by incarceration. It is her hope that in transparently sharing her story listeners will find their own being re-written in a personal relationship with Christ.
Holly writes like a columnist/diarist, and her writing can range from wrenching (suicide watch in prison) to laugh out loud funny. Seeking to develop meaningful time spent with readers, her work does more than tell, it asks, it provokes, it engages. Her blog and podcast, From Surviving to Living, is dedicated to helping readers and listeners find help in difficult circumstances, with resources for learning more about Jesus. It covers a wide range of topics such as mental health, human connection, personal growth, family dynamics, parenting, social isolation, institutional challenges, and prison life.
Holly lives in Minnesota and has five children. Remarried last year, her new husband is serving 20 years out of a 30-year prison sentence. They met in a very unusual way during their incarceration, but didn’t begin a friendship until after Holly’s release from prison. This May will be their 1st wedding anniversary. Both families have found the unexpected and unusual relationship to be a blessing.
Holly volunteers with prison reform organizations as well as with her local church. She is an IT solutions consultant at her firm Bot Consulting LLC.
