About Our Guest

Becky Pourchot is the author of the Hungry Ghost Series – a collection of paranormal-themed books for young adults. www.beckypourchot.com Although she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder when she was fourteen, Becky has been unwilling to be a victim of her diagnosis. Instead, she has dedicated her life to understanding how she ticks and how she can be a better person. Becky continues to be on medication, however, she believes the biggest factor in her overall health is her “practice”, which includes sitting and walking meditation, dancing and mindfulness. She believes this work significantly helps manage her mood swings. Although balance can be challenging for her at times, she has learned to accept the waves as they come. She defines her struggles not as an illness, but as a set of challenges that when channeled properly make her a stronger individual for those around her.

Becky lives in Flagler Beach, Florida, where she looks forward most to watching the waves and walking barefoot on the sand.

Becky is a strong advocate for Hoffy’s Heart by utilizing her incredible writing skills and sending press releases to various publications.
