About the Author

Amanda Smith, LCSW, started out her career in mental health by serving as the executive director of the Pinellas County, Florida, affiliate of the National Alliance for Mental Illness (NAMI). In 2007, she founded Florida Borderline Personality Disorder Association-a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing advocacy, education, and support for people diagnosed with BPD and their families. As a licensed clinical social worker, she provides comprehensive dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) through her office in Waco, Texas. She is also interested in evidence-based treatments like mentalization-based treatment and logotherapy. While she primarily works with individuals diagnosed with personality disorders, she is happy to meet with anyone who is open to finding more meaning and purpose in their life.

Julienne Irons loves all things true crime but has a knack for creating fun voices, which makes her a great choice for children's books and adult novels. It's always fun for her to figure out where characters fit into the stories she gets to tell. She loves getting lost on adventures in inspiring riveting literary fiction, especially when the protagonist is either a woman or the story seeks to bring a voice to the voiceless. She's worked with the amazing Viola Davis on How to Get Away with Murder, Rob Lowe on Lone Star 911, and Nathan Fillion on The Rookie, and a number of other TV shows. With training from Tisch School of the Arts and various prestigious acting studios, she can bring any story to life with love and passion and truly enjoys the work she's so honored to create.
