“Linda Bachrach came into my life through the Society of Professional Journalist. After twenty years in the United States, I’m Italian born and raised, I was tired of moving from one “promising job” to the next, in pursuit of professional opportunity and increased earning potential. At this point, I was simply done with the whole idea. I wanted more than a career path — who invented it anyway — I wanted fulfillment.
“Now working as a freelance journalist covering the Bronx for a monthly magazine owned by News Corp, I was biding my time. Yearning for my creative voice to flow out of me, finally finding its place in the world and giving life to the media projects that, for so long, I had imagined I would release one day.
“Are dreams just dreams, or are they the language of our soul? Messages from the heart lodged deep within ourselves, whose role is to remind us of the unique gifts and talents we carry? As part of my seeker’s journey I was keeping a toy-size cardboard truck that I had serendipitously found at a Starbucks, a couple of years earlier. It had an inscription on the side: “Find your own road, and success will follow.”
“Still hesitating to embrace my future, afraid of making the wrong choices, I was making none. Writing my monthly articles, waiting for a signal. Then, I met Linda.
“Since the day of my birthday back in May of this year when, after filling out a questionnaire sent by the SPJ to its members, she e-mailed me an introductory note, Linda has been an invaluable teacher and advisor, gently and effectively encouraging me to align my thoughts and actions with my vision and intentions. I’m now preparing to release an online media project directed at an audience of expatriates and newcomers in the States, about the process of re-establishing life and personal meaning in a different country.
“Connecting with Linda’s positive force and uplifting abilities, always delivered in a nurturing and non judgmental way, reconnected me with my purpose. She has the rare capacity to listen, like all great teachers do, and guide you to discover your soul’s desires, step-by-step taking you to your final destination.
“Linda strengthened my awareness and confidence at a crucial time in my life. Through gentle support, laughter and companionship, the added bonuses of the road we covered, she has seamlessly resurfaced one piece of truth I kept missing, but I’m now convinced of…I can do it!”
