Editor Biography

Linda Hourihan, HHCP is an international holistic health counselor/practitioner and former owner of The Massage Clinic with four offices in Connecticut with over 8,000 appointments helping humanity transform what no longer serves their highest good into healthier versions of themselves. Linda is an international interfaith minister since 2004 and has earned her Master’s in Chaplaincy, and Doctorate in Spiritual Awareness and Universal Order. She is a former feature writer for The Milford Daily News, founding feature-writer for the Laconia Daily Sun, and contributing author of More Weddings, Funerals, and Rites of Passage. Linda is the winner of the 2024 International Impact Book Awards for her trilogy IN THEIR IMAGE AND LIKENESS, subtitled UNIVERSAL WISDOM; MY RED BAG OF COURAGE, subtitled SURVIVAL WISDOM; and NATURE SPIRIT WISDOM, subtitled LIGHT WITHIN THE ANGEL, MINERAL, PLANT, AND ANIMAL KINGDOMS. She is a finalist in the 2025 International Impact Author of the Year competition for her book, TRANSITIONING INTO THE AGE OF AQUARIUS, subtitled AN ENLIGHTENING JOURNEY. Instead of choosing to walk across the red carpet in Hollywood, Linda instead is choosing to celebrate her hard work in the neighborhood restaurant on Lake Nipmuc, across the street from her childhood home, with her friends and family, all of which bring life to MY RED BAG OF COURAGE on the same day and time of the award ceremony on October 4, 2025 in California. Her last four books mentioned above address how to get out of political, religious, and social cults, all of which often attempt to use various forces to restrict or prohibit the advancement of women in their paradigms. She has also been published in: The Connecticut Post, The Door Opener Magazine, Wisdom Magazine, and Spirit of Change Magazine. Linda continues her life’s mission through her books, her website: https://lindahourihanhhcp.com, and her blog, www.lindahourihan.wordpress.com in her worldwide outreach to make the world a better place to live for every person in it regardless of political, religious and/or social affiliation.
