CATEGORY: NON-FICTION
Dopamining is part cultural diagnosis, part personal reckoning—exploring distraction, self-sabotage, overstimulation, and the modern addiction to immediate gratification.
Written for anyone who has ever felt the gap between the life they are living and the one they keep meaning to start, it asks what constant stimulation is costing us creatively, emotionally, and psychologically.
Her writing spans memoir, non-fiction, essays, children’s literature, and forthcoming fiction.
Across each, there is a consistent thread. An interest in self-trust, creative life, and the realities of building something of your own.

“Samantha Wills, who grew up in Port Macquarie (Australia) and now lives in New York, is a tycoon of her time.”
“Breakout star.”
“Wills is not afraid to talk about the challenges she faced throughout her career. ‘It took me no less than twelve years to become an overnight success,’ she says, which is one of the reasons she also launched the Samantha Wills Foundation (Institute) to help empower women in business, by sharing her experiences — the good and bad — throughout her career.”
