How does a personal loss propel someone into the world of public service and social activism? Join us as we uncover Linda Newell's extraordinary journey from her formative years in California, under the guidance of a psychologist father and teacher mother, to becoming a key figure in Colorado politics. Linda's story is a rich tapestry of personal growth, driven by the inspirational paths of her daughters and her own relentless pursuit of self-awareness. Listen as Linda recounts how early exposure to personal development workshops laid the foundation for her activism, eventually leading her to take on the role of junior facilitator. This episode illuminates how Linda's dedication to social justice and spirituality inspired her to run for public office after a profound family loss, showcasing a life committed to both personal and societal transformation.

In a candid conversation, Linda opens up about her personal transformation, detailing pivotal moments such as overcoming her fear of singing in public and recognizing the damaging codependency within her marriage. These revelations set her on a path of therapy, spiritual restoration, and mindfulness. Her story is a testament to the power of self-awareness and the courage to embrace change, inspired by the work of Barbara Marks Hubbard. Tune in to hear about Linda's journey through challenging yet empowering experiences, her perspective on regression and digression, and how she emerged stronger, more mindful, and deeply committed to making a difference.
