Life Lessons with Linda

Life Lessons with Linda

Ever feel like you’re doing all the things but still wondering… why does it still feel off? Welcome to Life Lessons with Linda — the podcast for high-achieving women who are outwardly successful but secretly stuck in patterns of Overing™: overthinking, overdoing, overgiving, overcommitting, overindulging, and overriding your own needs. I’m your host, Linda Sherony — former college professor turned Human Design guide, life and business coach, and certified tapping practitioner. I spent 15 years teaching leadership and strategy in the classroom, and now I help women like you apply it to real life — in a way that is supportive and feels good in your body. Inside each episode, you’ll find real talk, no-BS life lessons, human design insights (in plain English), and grounded tools like breathwork and tapping — all designed to help you reconnect with who you really are underneath all the Overing™. This isn’t just self-help. It’s self-remembrance. It’s your permission slip to stop performing and start becoming. Because looking successful isn’t the same as feeling it — and you deserve both. 🎙️ New episodes dropping soon — including our bingeable two-part series: “Escaping Overing Land™.” Let’s walk the Road to Better™ together.

Podcast episodes contain a conversation about something that has me or my guest stuck, and then we’ll tap on it to move through our emotions and get our energy flowing again. My guests and I will share our experiences and our hearts and then tap our way through to feelin...
