Born an introvert in a family of extroverts. I am the creator, writer and personal/relationship coach of BrendaKnowles.com. I coach and empower introverts and highly sensitive people (and their partners) as they process transitions and navigate relationships.

I created my blog, space2live, in Feb. of 2011.

My first book, "The Quiet Rise of Introverts: 8 Practices for Living and Loving in a Noisy World" will be released October 3, 2017.

I am fascinated by relationships, connection, curiosity, empathy, family dynamics and personal evolution. If you approached me with one of those topics at a party or event, I would talk to you for hours. You'd probably think I was an extrovert. ;)

I currently live outside of Minneapolis, MN with my three children and two guinea pigs.
