thanks for giving me space | something I need to tell you… 

Thank you for sharing your story. Growing up in an Asian Family, the feeling of self worth and confidence wasn’t something that was encouraged. Now that I have kids of my own, I find the generational trauma coming out of me and onto my kids. Fortunately I will see when it happens and I talk to my kids about it but I need to do better. Your story motivates me to do more to help myself and my kids so that I can break the generational trauma. Thank you for this video.

I lived in Asia almost my entire life and I can honestly say things still have not changed. Adults still think they know better. And I don't think it will ever change, it's rooted so deeply that unless you've spent some time or grown up in Western world then you'll never think any differently neither

This was oh so inspiring! A woman who grows up and realizes her insecurities were projected upon them by her parents and that says that without judgements or criticism but just by observing smartly and then choosing to work toward building a fulfilling life and career for herself and especially for her children shows so much emotional maturity, emotional intelligence and responsibility and love towards her children that I cannot but admire you deeply, Linda!

I cried so much watching this video. I have followed you long time, but this was the most honest, authentic one ever. I have similar childhood experience. And being obsessed with being good enough at school/work to prove my value ... was me. I was so stressed out after pushing myself at work, without meeting my own way too high expectation. And then this video poped and i cried so much out of feeling understood. Thank you so much to share your story. Please keep this journey !!!

Hello Linda. A few years ago, we worked 1:1. With your help, I landed an exciting job. I have changed jobs twice since then and I attribute that to the tools you provided me. I'm so happy you're back on RU-vid and I am looking forward to your new content!

We missed you and thank you for being real. Authenticity is my saviour. It has made my family dislike me a lot but it made me like me for me. My career options now is a mirror of who I really am, I truly enjoy my new path, and it is not because of what my parents wanted for me but because it is what I wanted for me. I relate completely with your story. Your self-expression is contagious and thank you for your sharing your story, authentically. Welcome back 😎.

Your testimonial about your upbringing within a family that held outdated beliefs that played a huge part in influencing your self-esteem resonated with me. Thanks for having the courage to be vulnerable with us by sharing your personal life and the struggles that come with being a racialized person as well as how you used your skills to navigate it over the years in the business sector. The fact that you started out teaching others and you've gotten so much out of it speaks volumes about the power of serving others while promoting/positioning yourself the right way. Wishing you nothing but happiness and success with your new family in the many years to come.

I was one of those you helped to land their new job. I was laid off back in 2021(tech jobs norms nowadays😔) and after that, I decided to take a career break for more than a year. In January of this year, I started job hunting but before that, I binged watch your videos on how to tailor my resume, how to ace the interviews, and even how to boost my confidence as I felt that I already forgot all of those after taking a year of a career break. I submitted my application to 6 different companies and I was surprised that the next day, 4 of those contacted me for an interview, one of it which I liked was the work-from-home setup and a day shift job(which I manifested as someone who worked graveyard my whole life). I got the job and will start this coming January 30.🤗 Thank you so much for your videos and will pray for you on what you went through right now.

Hi Linda, I found your videos about 4 years ago after I became a mother myself and felt completely trapped in a job that was destroying my mental health and my confidence. Your videos helped me to understand how I could prepare better for interviews and I found your "how to answer" tips particularly helpful; prior to that, I was definitely barking up the wrong tree a few times. I am so grateful that your content, which is incredibly high quality, was available for free on RU-vid. I appreciate your vulnerability and just felt like this was an opportune moment for me to thank you for helping me when I was vulnerable

I want to applaud you Linda for stepping out in front of the world and baring yourself openly. As a content creator, we can often feel almost naked when we put ourselves out there, just open to criticism and nastiness. We do it so that the beautiful can shine through as well. We do it because we love people and know we couldn't sleep at night if we didn't. Well, it's freaking scary Linda and I know making this video took a huge effort, mostly mentally. I applaud you!!

I’ve always seen a positive energy around you that is why I was drawn to you about career advice. You’ve helped millions of us and you’ll continue to be successful. That energy in the house has helped you become successful in your business.

Linda has ascended to her next level and I’m here for it! 🔥 I am excited to embrass your transparency and to become empowered by your inspiring words 🙌🏼

Many thanks Linda, I was a poor kid trying to earn money to go to university in a big city in Vietnam. I chose accounting because I saw I will earn money from my hard work. 6 years ago I started learning English. Then I watched your videos and decided to go for an interview and succeed, after that every time I change jobs higher, I watch your videos before the last interview rounds . Really grateful to you!

❤ Thanks for inviting us & joining this new journey together ❤ I like your channel and even tried to take notes when going for interviews. Glad to send you my feedbacks as this is the first time inspiring me to start interactions with you, dear Linda. Love & looking forward to having more connection in this new inner us journey ❤ Lots lots love from - A mom of 2 wonderful kids, a wife with a sweet husband, a career woman with a manager title, a Taiwanese lives in Hong Kong who thought I was super smart, and sometimes lost in this plant, a lot of times, still feel deeply blessed❤

Linda, as a job search advisor I frequently use your videos in our meetings with job seekers. Your videos are very helpful, and the information you share is always so on point! As a fellow RU-vid creator, I have to say how much I noticed a change in your delivery on this video. Your older videos are very succinct, fast-paced and information-packed. I noticed immediately that your voice was more mellow... you seem more centered. Good for you! I'm glad that you've had some time with your babies to find your "why" and bring your whole self back to what you do professionally. Don't get me wrong... both the "old" Linda and the "new" Linda are wonderful to watch. You just have a way of connecting and sharing advice that is so valuable. Thanks for sharing your story. I'm sure understanding more about your journey will be helpful to many! All the best to you, Dara

Thank you for sharing your story. I know you're an intellectual person the moment I watched your videos from 7 years ago to this time. I understand that motherhood is the most fulfilling emotion, especially taking care with your lovely children, what else could give us joy! ❤ I support you in your shift about what you would share in your channel. God bless you and your family.

I feel so seen and validated hearing your story. It is so similar to mine. I was an over achiever and perfectionist because I grew up believing that was how I was good enough and worthy. Having been raised by 2 immigrant parents who didn't have an opportunity for an education, subconsciously and in some ways consciously, they didn't feel worthy and good enough. That became my inner voice, until I had children and didn't want to repeat those patterns with my kids. I finally was able to heal and break generational parenting patterns. It is quite a journey but grateful to be on it. Thanks again for having the courage to vulnerably and authentically share your storey. I have no doubt it resonates with many, including me.

Awesome great news … your awesome! Look forward to the journey!

I believe you’re an empathetic person. I am also. This video was a light to say the least. Becoming who you truly are and standing in that person is powerful. I’m also a mother and know exactly how you’re feel. Happy I’ve found your RU-vid channel and look forward to more videos. TY❤

You are a ROCKING lady. Your interview videos have helped me so much over the years, especially because of your unique insights and clear way of explaining things. I think it's awesome that you are sharing more of your authentic self on RU-vid and I am 110% here for it! Any way you want to go, you go! Also, I relate very strongly to your story of growing up in a poor family with super-high expectations. I always did perfectly in school, but as a result of not knowing myself or what I wanted, I ended up completely floundering in the work force. I have spent the past several years trying to work my way into an industry where I can support myself, but it is not my true passion. I look forward to any and all future insights from you on this topic! Also, you lived in a haunted house!? That is wild! I totally understand if you don't want to talk any more on that topic for fear of being seen as 'woo-woo,' but I would eat up a more detailed video about that story! You are the most grounded and down-to-earth person I can even think of, so if you say there were ghosts, there were ghosts.

Congratulations on your beautiful bundles of joy! Thank you, I appreciate you sharing more about your life and journey through motherhood. Your realization and embarking on new ways to impact others and yourself. I am so happy for you. You have impacted me for sure, especially in interviews by watching your videos and workshops. Welcome back!

Love this! Your authenticity has always shined brightly, it’s why I’ve enjoyed you’re videos so much. Now you’re going deeper, how exciting!

I have been watching you for a long time, I mean years, and I am excited to see what’s in store for your channel

Good morning Linda ! Happy to see you again !!! I think whatever you are going through is a great experience that you can share with your subscribers , because you are not the only one that has these challenging situations . I hope your followers can feel inspired . My encouragement is : Throw your badain to God and He will sustain You . God loves You very much . God bless you and your children .

Awe, I’m wishing you the best in this new journey and can’t wait to also join you!!! In the past 2-3 mos that I have been job hunting, I found that in order to be my authentic self and feel more confident, definitely required me to do a lot of internal self reflecting, understanding where I’m lacking, and I can relate so much with what you are working towards!!! Looking forward to joining you in this journey!!! 🎉

Hey Linda, I have lots to say about this lol. Fellow recruiter here. I actually noticed/sensed this gift in you when I found your videos a few months ago and decided to enroll in both of your courses. Sounds odd since I’m a recruiter but I was also in the midst of a job and life transition and needed some external support at the time. I completely understand what you mean about sensing things both in recruiting work and in your personal life, as I experience the same thing. I believe it is what makes me really successful at recruiting so it’s nice to see you echo what I have also experienced. One of the reasons I love recruiting is that it’s about both head and heart work. Looking forward to following along on your journey!

This video was so important to make, so thank you Linda. I really resonated with it because my parents are also Vietnamese immigrants and I share a lot of the feelings you discussed. I’m currently no contact with my parents and it’s been the best thing for me.

What a powerful message you shared with your audience, Linda! Thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing your story, I look forward to seeing more of a new content, it will definitely resonate with many of you followers. 🕊🙌

Yes!! I love that you’re tapping into your sensitivities and incorporating that into your videos. So many of us need it. So excited for the new content!!!

I love this side of Linda! So excited to see what's to come!

Thank you for your genuine sharing. I want to give the younger 7 years old a big thumbs up and a warm hug. You are a smart, kind, gifted young lady.❤❤❤

Linda I’m so happy for you and we miss you and you have inspired and helped me so much. God bless!😊🙏🏽

Thank you so much, Linda. I can't tell you how much it means to have you share all of this. It's amazing to get these other dimensions of who you are. Everything you put out from here on out will be so much richer for this. Peace and best to you and yours.

Hi Linda, I congratulate you for the courage in making this video to the World, and you being authentically you.

Great news about you family and enjoyed hearing your story. It's nice to be part of this community and it will be interesting to see where it goes.

Wow I wasn't expecting this but I'm excited for the future of this channel! So proud of you for showing up and having the courage to put this out!

I've always sensed and knew that you had those abilities. I am so inspired by your courage to finally share this part of your gift with the world. I would love to be able to connect with you directly one day as i feel we have so much in common. I wish you the very best and look forward to seeing your new journey unfold ❤

Hi Linda. I just wanted to say I resonate with everything you have mentioned. About 2 years ago, I watched your video and found my first proper job in Toronto as an immigrant. (Thank you!) And also around the same time I watched your video, I was on a self awakening, trauma releasing, journey. And in the process of that, I also started to be more connected to the ether and different "energies". Now I am still in that journey. I know I still have unresolved trauma but at the same time I am very interested or intrigued by the ether world (or magic). After watching this video I felt I have to leave a comment. Please continue with those topics and I will keep watching. Btw, after your camera went off, I think I see more glow from you. I feel like I can sense more of your aura and there are two human shaped glow that I see on both of your sides from time to time. I am still very unsure about my interpretation of the ether and energies. But I just wanted to share with you. Hope you all the best and please keep uploading the new videos.

So great to see this side of you Linda. I recently became a mother as well and it certainly shifts your perspective. If you ever want to chat, it would be great to reconnect. Also, as humans we are the only animals who actively ignore our instincts and intuition. Isn’t that ridiculous when you think about it? So glad that you’re following yours!

Hi. Your videos have helped me so much when I was looking for work after the pandemic. Out of all the job searching advice out there I really connected to not only your great career advice but your advice on living a more authentic, self-aware, and conscious life. How you feel about yourself and the vibration you give out to the world is such a huge part of not only how you present yourself in interviews but your overall well-being. As a working mom like yourself, I understand how much your children can change you as a person. It's like suddenly you unapologetically become a more authentic version of the person you used to be. It can also be quite triggering if you have unresolved issues as a child, but your children can teach you so much. Anyway, good luck on this new path. Can't wait to see what this new channel will become and you can be as woo-woo as you want. I love it!

Thank you so much for this Linda. This is exactly what I needed to hear.

Ok this is beyond uncanny. I grew up in a Canadian South Asian household, became a corporate lawyer for the money and status (I went into accounting first but me and numbers don't get along lol), I also nailed match week and accepted a job at one of Canada's top tier National firms. I also questioned what the heck I was doing all of this for while frequently working past midnight, feeling burnout and depression. I quit and became a legal headhunter/recruiter. About 4 years in I started feeling unfulfilled and created online courses for job seekers to get better at resume writing and interviewing (is this freaking you out yet???). Then I realized I wasn't utilizing all of my gifts so I started coaching others on how to connect with their calling and build authentic, freedom based online businesses. I've been doing that for the last 5 years. I'm also attuned to subtle energies and am a Reiki healer, which gives me a channel to direct my abilities/gifts. Tell me our journeys aren't aligned!! We should connect. If there's one thing I've learned from leaving Canada and moving to Bali where it seems like every 2nd person you meet has a similar story, there's power in community! ♥️ We stand more firmly in our power and feel safety in being who we are when we surround ourselves with others that are doing the same. Thank you for sharing your beautiful journey!

You helped me get my first job a few years ago, thank you for your authenticity ❤ the world needs more of it

Thank you for sharing your story. I never regretted following you since then. I've been sharing your vids to my relatives/friends to ace their interview. Keep inspiring! I hope I will have the same guts as yours stepping up.

Linda, your “sensitivity” is becuase you’re spiritually gifted. But you know this deep down ❤️ Thank you so much for trusting us and showing us a more authentic version of you. So ready for this next chapter watching your videos!

I am so glad you spoke up. I have been in this rut and like you come from an Asian family with that condescending mentality towards children and as adults we carry it with us. I am having more clearly in my thoughts when you speak up. Thank you for sharing and please be open, I need you and hopefully we can help each other through this journey.❤

Hi Linda, thanks for sharing your journey. We are in a time of great evolution and, you're right, the answers are within us - our inner wisdom. You are a beautiful and unique blend of practical and spiritual gifts. Thank you for your honesty and vulnerability. Blessings to you and your family ❣

Thank you Linda. I was a "workforce development professional" for 20 years. My job was eliminated due to CV19. I ended up retiring from "9 to 5". I used to refer participants to your video s all the time. I am ready to create an online course and this video was helpful as a nudge to move forward. Thank you, again. Peace....

Thank you sooo much for sharing this! I got tears in my eyes when you talked about your kids and shared about your childhood. I am a working mom too and totally resonate with a lot you shared. Very inspiring, Linda! Cant wait to hear more from you. HUGS!!

That was such a great video! Thank you for sharing your story, I was already a fan of your videos and you've helped me so much in my career. Learning about your childhood and your new talents make you more endearing! I can relate to your abilities of being sensitive to the other world, all my life I've always felt things in other peoples house or my own.

Hi Linda, thank you so much for your sharing. As a first generation immigrant and accounting professions, I benefited a lot from your videos and landed my current job and my previous job. All the interview strategies from you are so helpful. I wish you all the best and thank you!

It is so true about Asian culture. I hope things have progressed and gotten better now. I just recall growing up in a critical environment, teachers/parents, there is always a demand to be better. It felt like me as a person is never good enough. I am always wrong and the adults are always right. Now as an adult, I find myself always in the mindset of criticizing myself or others. Also if something goes wrong, I always feel like I’m the one who caused it.

Thank you for sharing. So glad you are back! I am so excited to see what is to come with your channel! :)

Hi Linda. Welcome back!!! Your platform has helped me switch careers after being a stay at home mom for 4 years. I’m so happy your back and I’m looking forward to connecting and learning what you have to offer in the future!!

I recently starting seeing your videos because i am looking for a job. The videos offer truly worthy advice and are so valuable to me. But in the same time, i was also feeling really grounded and safe when i was watching your videos, and i was wondering why. Sometimes i was watching your videos even the days-off my job search, just because. And now i saw this video and it explains it all:you're spiritual. You are a healer. And i was positively surpised!😀😀 I want also to thank you for your help!

Thanks for sharing with us!! I have parents like that, too, which created my childhood trauma and cptsd. I am gradually became more open as I received validation from people like you! Let’s find our authentic self together.

Great video! Love this shift for you and looking forward to all you have the share. For a minute there I had goosebumps when you mentioned the light going off on your camera 😅.

You’re a wise soul. Also mom of 2 where being a working mom shifted so much in my mind and confidence. Thanks for sharing ❤

Thank you for sharing, Linda. I completely understand what you experienced as a little girl. You are doing great now!

You as a person starting to really show up for your audience! Congratulations for your new life situation and for the courage it provided you to open up.

Hi Linda! You video and coaching offer always come to me at the right time! Thanks for guiding me, encouraging me through your touching and practical content. Please keep sharing. I'll go with you! Love from Vietnam

Congratulations on being a mom, im loving you.

I just wanna say thank you so much for your service. I can’t wait to see more of you in the future :)

Wow just know I admire you very much. Your more then brave. I know from a person that is strong like you and strong headed is sometimes hard to tell or say when you don’t feel 100 percent so that’s very brave. I have learn to build my confidence with all your videos and be by authentic self. You are very authentic and the fact that you can teach people awareness of how to find there true authentic self that’s a blessing. Parenting definitely changes every life’s view when you are responsible for another being and you want that person to be full and complete in themselves in who they are authentically. Life is a journey never predictable. Inner self awareness is key. 💞✝️😊

This video is so important! Thank you for showing how deep ou work as coaches can be, how spiritual it can be, how career is actually a life mission. I'm in for the woo-woo for practical things in life

Fantastic! I believe everything is deeply connected. Totally with you. Thank you for sharing and I am sure this will lead to even more success as you become your authentic self. I am often afraid of what people will think about if I bring up spiritual beliefs, but there are people who are ready and there are people who are not. Those who are ready to talk about it will understand each other and will connect. Those who are not ready, will join at a later stage in their journey, but they eventually will 😊

Wow Linda you are such an amazing and smart person! But I gotta tell you this was abundantly clear before you published this new video. So therefore you were always worthy and valuable the whole time. As you explained you were a high achiever in your high school days too. There is something more to be said about the parenting style that could fill several pages. Anyways I think your ability of being introspective is what enabled you to find your calling which is you like to help people feel their worth. The career coaching advice that you published online I can say it truly helped me. So that is why I am so obliged to contribute to your channel in my own small way by responding here. You helped me learn how to present my skills and exhibit who I am. But this was like 4 years ago lol I have grown so much since then. Imagine how many other countless people you have helped that you did not even know about! How amazing is that?! So yeah anyone out there who needs help with their career - you can count on Linda Raynier! She is ahead of her time :) She deserves all of her fans to applaud and cheer her on too! I think it's a totally natural transition for Linda to help people in other ways...maybe psychotherapy or parenting assistance something like that. Ohhh I think I just incited a new video haha "How to change career fields and completely transform yourself by Linda Raynier!"

You’re amazing!! I just started watching your videos about how to prepare for job interviews, ways to stop being shy, and so on. Your videos shaped my mindset and attitudes. I want to thank you for being awesome & strong! This video is genuine and I hope the best in your journey!!! 💖💖💖💖

This timing of this was perfect for me. Thank you!

Congratulations! 🎉 Goals!

As I suspected: you are a wonderful human being! Congratulations on starting your family. So very much joy! (and worry, and chores, and cute pictures and experiences in the years ahead.)

Thanks for sharing your story with us. Here's my story: I've worked endless dead-end jobs from age 18 - 40 which is my current age. I have been to trade schools many times and graduated from school, only to remain working a dead-end job and struggling to pay back the school loan. I got free online education as a QA software tester back in 2017, and I never found a job. When you said something is holding you back, yeah, it is. The hiring managers I interview with are holding me back. They make the decision if I get the job or not. I was laid off from my dead-end job a few months ago, and I am looking for a new job. If I get another dead-end job, that's fine. I know I tried to do better but failed many times. I still believe some people have better blessings than others. Meaning people who don't try to do much with their life to succeed, they actually do! Vs. me, trying to live a better life, I frequently run into obstacles, blockages, and delays. Thanks for sharing.

Love this! Your tips throughout the years have been amazing and got every single offer using them. I’m also a science prof and tarot reader. Things don’t have to be black and white ! Best of luck with this new path - it’s going to be great!

I can identify with your story. I came from Mexico. My many older siblings came later. I too put a lot of effort into my school. It was my place of refuge. I still love school. I wish you the very best. I look forward to seeing what you will do with your channel.

Thank you Linda for sharing your story!

Sending you a lot of love from Toronto, I think you nailed it, be authentic! be yourself! you will make a great mom!

2 months ago I became a mom for the 2nd time. I am blessed with two little boys as well just like you. This week I am going to completely rebrand this channel and will see how it goes. After watching this very video, I am going to record something authentic to my small community saying good bye to them. It just feels like I started something 2 years ago and now I want a change. I've been thinking about it for several months and it was so difficult to come up with this decision. Can't imagine if I would do it with a huge channel like yours, almost 1 mln subscribers. Respect to you girl and good luck. It's still warm, eh? Love from Montreal.

Linda! So nice to see you back on YT. I see your interview tip videos on LinkedIn from time to time and have always wondered how you're doing today. What an honest video! I'm so excited to see the new content you'll be sharing with us -- I personally LOVE when well-educated, professional ladies share their interest in the "woo woo" stuff. It's so real! Congratulations on the new place & the babies and WELCOME BACK!

Thank you for sharing your story. You are a great success. Congratulations on the new changes and evolution in your life, and thanks again for providing your gifts to the community. Your contributions are not unnoticed.

Omg Linda thank you so much for sharing this video! Thank you for choosing to really be you, and come into yourself and sharing it with us. It’s great to get work info that’s Really helpful, but it’s also nice to get to hear you as a person 💖🙏🏽

Thank you very much for sharing. I feel like I'm in the right place and direction...

20:22 that interference is spooky. I would like to thank you for sharing your life experience. I'm one of many who have received a lot of help from you. Appreciate it. I understand and second the Asian family upbringing and the challenges you have overcome. It's very impressive and those challenges were your chisel, I feel. You are a modern great in what you do and a person who is unfazed by your incompleteness. I wish you the very best for your family and future. Looking forward to your future shares as those topics are of great interest to most positive people.

SO proud of you!! I can't wait to see where God will lead you. You definitely have a mission that will be far reaching. Just maintain an attitude of gratitude and let God lead the way!!

Your wisdom and expertise has helped me in ways you wouldn't imagine. I really appreciate all of the quality content you have shared with us throughout the years.

Absolutely, love hearing your Truth❤

I skipped so many videos before because I landed a corporate job then I quit and never wanted to get back to 9-5 again. I never unfollowed you in particular, however I did it with other channels that really annoyed me so much. ...they repeated the same and the same information and I had a feeling that their videos are the same. But, I watched 2 of your latest videos and just saying: Huge respect for coming out and saying all that. Moving forward will be interesting to watch your channel evolve in a different direction.

Thank you for this Linda, so proud of you! Really needed to hear this right now, knowing that I am not alone with this kind of feeling. I hope I can reach the point where I will not hold back to become my authentic self.

Omg I watched your video for a while but now I feel connected with you even more because of the similar background & your career path

Linda this video resonates with me so much. Thank you for sharing this with us. I can really relate to your childhood story and I've always been fascinated by spiritual things. This is a part of me I never really share with people. So, I am happy to go on this journey with you to find my most authentic self.

Very relatable video. Cant wait for the new stuff!

Oh Linda, This is exactly how I felt right now. Thank you for this wonderful video. I've been feeling lost recently and don't know where to start.

Thank you for sharing this video and being your authentic self. I came for interview tips and this is the second video that I chose based on its recency. I feel like you touched on exactly how I’ve been feeling and your words of encouragement which gave hope for better days. Sending love 🤍

Thank you Linda for this video that helped me. Keep up and continue being an excellent mother to your children 💖

OMG! I began writing the long comment below early on in your video. Now I am at the part where you're talking 'spirits and paranormal activity'. This is so incredible to me because 'God may be my only witness' but I am very sensitive in this manner as well - to people's spirits (we are spirts who live in a body) and supernatural spirits. As a child, after my mother died, I had a Good supernatural guidance that spoke and led me (from within). As a teen, I was consumed with fear of evil spirits because of my early spiritual encounters. I know what you're saying is real.

Omg Linda! We've missed you! I did not expect this bombshell from you, but thank you for being open and honest about your personal life. Have you thought of starting another channel for vlogging or topics such as your paranormal experiences (huge audience out there on these topics)? You draw people to you and whatever you decide to do, you will always have a following of support. Congratulations on motherhood. ❤

Welcome back ❤ thank you for this video and for being so candid 😊 I look forward to hearing from you about emotional blockages. I’ve been feeling, for some time now, that I need to be honest to myself and do what I think it’is my call. Please do share videos on that 😊❤️

Thanks for sharing, Linda! I see the person behind the career strategist now, and that makes me like you even more! ❤

Good morning Linda! I'm happy to see you are back and being so upfront and authentic! This is certainly different, and from my perspective highly welcomed! A long time ago when we spoke I felt you were a highly sensitive person with strong intuition, but the context was highly practical. I'm happy to hear you are starting to share the fuller depth of who you are. I'm looking forward to hearing more. Noticed your audio seemed to be more on the right side (painting side) and when you moved your head a bit it would come in both sides... others can comment if it's just me or not :) A warm welcome back from California!

AWWWHhhh! I hope you have a great journey as a loving mom and good health to take more care of your kids Linda!, xoxo

Wow - I so applaud you Linda. What an extraordinary women and mother you are. I received the email but was reluctant to review the video. It's so amazing how we're truly not alone in our experiences in this world because I also had the same type of upbringing where the children were not really talked to or nurtured in a loving way; children were more like servants to the adults in the home. In my case, my mother died when I was nine and being the youngest of 11 with most siblings married with children of their own before I was born. So, my father, all siblings and their spouses were authority figures over me; not to even mention how the neighbor could actually discipline or accuse you without dispute because they were an adult. I am Black - Colored Negro - in those days and at 66 I am still battling the residue of those very insecure feelings you described. I still deal with society anxiety and not knowing how to connect with others, and it's tormenting because I am that person who will give the shirt off my back literally if needed (though I would need some other covering being a women). Watching you share your heart is so giving and freeing (even for me). Thank you so much for sharing. I will not give up in my search for freedom to live in and of my authentic truth and self, and just relax. God Bless You! Bj
