ABOUT ME

MY STORY

Same Linda Different Identities

This site is about me and three of my identities: Actor, Creator, and Career Coach. My various identities all have at their core my love of storytelling and it’s from there that I work.

Whether it’s performing as an actor or comic, my primary interest is in serving an uplifting story. Since I’m at home here, I’ll be frank. Some stories aren’t worth telling. To me, at least. If you’re not better off for having experienced it, I have no interest in telling it. Can’t help it. I’m picky.

As a creator, I’ve written a solo show (Linda Means to Wait), a short film (Elevator Lesson), written a book (The Charm of Confrontation), and now I’m working on some web-classes for Career Changers, Job Seekers, and Stage Actors who want to make residual income by turning their expertise into digital products.

As a Career Coach, I use my storytelling skills to help job-seeking or career-changing clients over craft the wording in their cover letters to highlight their organic strengths.

MY TRANSITION

I’ve been a professional actor for decades. I’ve worked stages, taught workshops, and helped thousands of people grow through career services and storytelling. But after the untimely death of my husband, I felt like my own story had ended.

Comedy was always in my bones, but I never fully gave myself permission to chase it. Until now.

At 60, I’m stepping back on stage with fresh material drawn from real life — grief and healing, parenting, career changes, aging, and the quirks of starting over.

And I want to help you do the same
