Debbie Russell is a lawyer turned writer. She spent twenty-five years as an Assistant County Attorney in Minneapolis, prosecuting numerous high-profile cases and fighting off several nervous breakdowns. At age fifty-five, Debbie took early retirement, giving up a full pension for the freedom of time. She now spends that precious time writing, restoring her property to native prairie and wetlands, and training her rambunctious retrievers.

Debbie’s first published article appeared in the Minneapolis Star Tribune in 2001. After that small triumph, her writing focused primarily on legal briefs and memoranda, which were consigned to district court files. Debbie resumed creative writing in 2014 when she began her storytelling blog, sharing personal stories and professional experiences that have touched her life in a significant way. 

In 2021, Debbie completed her first full-length story entitled Crossing Fifty-One: Not Quite a Memoir, which will be released in June of 2023. It is a compelling book, containing themes involving family dynamics, generational threads, recovery and redemption. It is available everywhere.

Amber's latest book, I Blew Up My Life, and I've Never Been Happier, is described as follows:

"To the public eye, Amber James is living the dream. She is engaged to be married, boasts a six-figure salary, and spent the last decade interviewing the hottest celebrities in New York City. Yet beneath this dazzling facade, Amber wrestles with crippling perfectionism, a toxic relationship, and an insatiable ambition that leaves her deeply unsatisfied.

As Amber teeters on the brink, a whirlwind of life-altering events - a global pandemic, a devastating loss, and a terrifying health scare - sweep her off her feet and force her to re-examine her life. Amber is presented with a life-altering question: Is she living to fulfill her happiness, or is she merely adhering to a checklist of success manufactured by societal expectations and settling?

In her emotionally raw and unflinchingly honest memoir, Amber takes readers on an inspiring journey of courage, self-discovery, and transformation as she musters the bravery required to forge a road toward genuine joy. It’s a poignant tale that reminds us that sometimes, it’s only by letting go that we find the true path to happiness."

Cybersecurity Awareness expert at Yale University by day, Wendy Battles pursues her passion for celebrating, illuminating and elevating midlife and older women, by night. As the host of the Reinvention Rebels podcast, Wendy interviews brave and unapologetic women, 50-90 years young, who have reinvented themselves later in life to see new possibilities. From traveling solo around the world with a carry-on bag at 60, to running in global marathons at 71, to launching a modeling career at 72, these women are boldly making their dreams a priority and reality. Wendy shines a light on the notion that we can reinvent ourselves at any age or any stage and is helping to disrupt limiting beliefs about the value of aging women in our society. At 58, Wendy is a Reinvention Rebel herself, having reinvented herself many times during her life, including as a management consultant, voice actor and health coach. Her most recent reinvention as a podcast host is by far her most rewarding. Along her journey of greater self-awareness, she has learned the art of living on purpose and embracing life with more joy, ease and trust.
