Autorenporträt
Julie Brown is a children's book author currently residing in Northern California. She is also a nurse who specializes in pediatrics (children), and mother. Julie's calling, both professionally and personally has long been to encourage self-love in others, but specifically children as she works daily with kids who are battling various medical challenges. The inspiration for this book came from those patients, as well as her daughter, Allianna, who lives with cystic fibrosis; a rare and progressive lung disease that currently has no cure. Altho her hope is to inspire self love in others, it has been a lifelong struggle of hers to overcome her own personal challenges with depression and anxiety. Julie believes that in being authentic and vulnerable, she creates a much needed space for others to do the same. Bearing witness to several friends, family members and colleagues struggle with mental health, it is Julie's dream to create a world with less bias where people of all kinds are able to speak their truth without fear of rejection and stigma that so often comes with mental illness.
