About Linda Reid,
Happiness Coach

Linda owned her first newspaper in her mid-20s - at the same time as she was having her two sons. Since selling both papers she has held senior management positions with largest newspaper organisations in New Zealand.

Her first newspaper was sold to APN Media, and Linda went back to work with APN twice more at their request and in senior management positions. The second paper was sold to Fairfax Media. Linda also spent four years in a senior role with Fairfax, and represented them on the Community Newspapers Association Executive Committee and also the Advertising Standards Authority.

Linda has trained extensively in NLP, Hypnotherapy and Results Coaching. She particularly values the work she has done learning Strategic Intervention Techniques from Tont Robbins and Cloe Madanes. Linda has also had professional presentation skills training and is happy to coach clients who have a need for stepping up on stage.

The part about managing both at work and at home that Linda loved the best was the coaching of her team , colleagues and family so that they could achieve the very best for themselves.

This is why she chose a career in Happiness Coaching. Because whatever you think is missing from your life - you believe having it will make you happy.

Linda's philosophy is; why not be happy right now? And still go for what you want!

Linda recently received this email from a 'stop-smoking' client.

"Thank you so much for everything, I still have not had a cigarette at all. "Its quite miraculous, I don't even think it has been too much of a struggle, I am amazed and ever so grateful. Just like magic you are!"

Debbie B, Pukekohe

Debbie has referred several of her firends to Linda.

"Once upon a time I could not say I was happy. In fact, for most of my life I've wasted the opportunities I had to really enjoy my life, and all the incredible richness it held.

"Now, I love my work, my marriage is happy and my extended family are all happy, healthy and successful. I have wonderful friends and incredible clients.

"I'm still working towards new goals. I've found that, just like most other people, I am happiest when I am making progress towards my goals.

"The unhappiest people are those who have given up, are disappointed, who feel rudderless or overwhelmed by some part of their life.

"There is absolutely nothing I love more than helping people who can't see the way forward to create a bright and compelling future. And then live it from the 'now'.

"So if you are feeling a little lost in some area or your life - call me. 

"If all you do is take that first step, I promise you will get a result from even that one meeting.

"Call me today."

-Linda Reid
