Martina is an illustrator, designer and storyteller living in Linz, Austria. Before making her childhood dream of a career in illustration come true, she studied Journalism and Languages in Mozart's Hometown Salzburg and worked as an editor for radio, a designer and a screenwriter. Martina mainly works digitally but she loves adding a special touch by using hand drawn textures and elements.

Jess Sanders is a social worker, podcast host and best-selling, award-winning author. Jess has a passion for creating resources that nurture positive mental health and promote gender equality. Every project she pursues is born from the question, ‘Why does it have to be this way?’.

Jess’s first book, Love Your Body is the perfect example of this. The book, which was originally crowd-funded through Kickstarter, was born from Jess’s refusal to accept that every girl is destined to grow up disliking her body. Jess has since published Me Time: a self-care guide to being your own best friend and the follow up to Love Your Body for boys, Be Your Own Man which supports boys to redefine what it means to be a boy, and a man.
