Her Story
About Belle
Belle Gayer is a book author specializing in relationships, self-help, and motivational topics. For the last 7 years, she has been answering questions and sharing advice, insights, and practical wisdom on Quora.com, reaching over 35 million views along with thousands of upvotes and thanks. She decided 7 years ago to write her book after observing unnecessary heartbreak, loneliness, and people struggling with relationships due to lack of self-esteem. Her book has won two global book awards: first place in South Motivational and third place in self-help happiness. It has received five glowing 5-star reviews from readers and professional reviewers, including Readers' Favorites and Kirkus Reviews, and was informed she will be featured in the November issue of Kirkus Reviews Magazine. Proceeds from the book are dedicated to several different charities as part of Tikkun Olam, the Jewish imperative to repair the world and make it a better place. Prior to writing, she worked as a legal secretary, was a stage mom to her two now-adult children, and was involved in charity work. She has been married for 54 years and draws from that experience to provide a roadmap for successful relationships through communication and daily effort.
