Linda Pestana
Linda's Story
It has become her calling to inspire others to live their truth.
Her deepest wish for you is to remember who you are. She allowed herself that gift several years ago, and it has made all the difference in the world.
This Planet needs the real you. We need what you have to offer, Express your gifts, and live your precious life.
What might life be like if you let go of your fears and followed the voice of your heart?
"Don't wait to live your life, live it now…" Is a model that she shares in her book.
"Voices of the Heart," and her new book "It's All About You and Me," which she wrote since her accident, which left her a quadriplegic.
Her life experiences have paved the path for her own healing and growth, leading to a universal appeal.
Working for many years with end-of-life issues, she learned not to dance around life experiences, but rather to offer answers to issues in the confrontation of truth.
Born on October 29, 1948 in Dover, NH. Linda spent her childhood and most of her adult life in Maine. As a member of The Sisters of Saint Joseph for 25 years, she received a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Southern Maine and a Master's degree in Creation Spirituality from Holy Name College in Oakland, California, and furthered her studies in Clinical Pastoral Education at the Interfaith Health Care Ministry in Providence, Rhode Island.
