Louis, Brenda St: - Brenda St. Louis's work and interests have always been related to creativity, healing, and connectivity. These themes are also reflected in her writing. She has eclectic interests, including economics, investing, somatic work, personal development, cold plunging, longevity practices for the mind and body, meditation, spending time with friends, and bargain shopping. After earning a degree in creative writing, Brenda worked for many years as a massage therapist before becoming a financial therapist and money coach. In this unique role, Brenda works holistically with her clients so they can better integrate their finances with their lives and communities.

Brenda often uses storytelling in her healing work. She is the co-author of The Thought That Changed My Life Forever, but The Lost Synapse is her first young adult novel. It is also the first installment of a three-part series.

She lives in Victoria, B.C., with her wife and three plants, which she has affectionately named: Alfred, Fernando, and Pricilla.
