Ava Walters is the founder of LifeZen Publications. Coming from a family with a history of mental health issues, her journey began as a personal quest to find balance, inner peace, and what we all desire—happiness. This pursuit has led her to explore traditional psychotherapeutic methods and a diverse range of holistic practices.
She has an MBA with a specialization in International Project Management (IPM). However, her trajectory took a significant turn after experiencing “a burnout and a breakdown.” She then returned to her first love—writing, complementing it with her deep passion for psychology. This transformation marked the beginning of her new journey. One focused on unraveling the intricate connections between human behavior and mental healing.
Today, as a dedicated author, Ava seamlessly integrates the benefits of psychotherapy and holistic practices, offering readers a comprehensive roadmap to improved mental health. Her empathetic writing style creates a safe and nurturing environment for readers to embark on their personal journeys of healing.
When she’s not writing, Ava can be found on her yoga mat, taking long nature walks with her husband, or in the kitchen, where she is constantly experimenting with new recipes to her husband’s delight.
