Barbara Gianquitto is a poet, writer and author of the best-selling poetry collections '4:04am Thoughts' and 'Awakening of the Heart', with her new poetry collection "Mirrors of Time: poems about soulmate love across time and space" being released in July 2023.

Listed as one of the top 10 authors to look out for in 2023, Barbara writes about love and heartbreak, self-discovery and healing with a soft, open and unique voice that has gathered the interest of over 60 thousand readers on social media across the world and a feature at the BBC national radio.

As a graduate in Communication and Psychology and a Neuro-Linguistic practitioner and coach, Barbara's passion has always been in the power of words and communication, inspiring her readers to dive deeper into their own power and self-discovery.

Barbara also writes for children, her brand new children's book "Loretta and the Monday morning blues" focuses on validating children's feelings to better equip them for the future, gently teaching them how it's always okay to feel what we feel, and that happiness can be found in the smallest things.

Born and raised in Italy Barbara currently lives in the United Kingdom with her family and a cat who thinks she is a dog; she drinks far too much coffee, follows the Moon and all its phases and is a hopeless romantic.

"Words are all we have in this world. We should use them more often."
