When everything changed, it happened in a pediatrician’s office.

One sentence — “He needs to program the suicide prevention hotline into his phone” — flipped everything this mom thought she knew about mental health, parenting, and prevention.

In this powerful WHEN Stories™ talk, Linda Eskay shares how that moment led her to uncover why traditional “prevention” often fails — and how understanding biology, human design, and the identity gap can truly protect our children.

This isn’t another talk about teen anxiety or suicide awareness… it’s about real prevention, real solutions, and freeing our kids — before they reach the edge.

✨ Learn how aligning parenting with neuroscience and natural design can shift your family from survival mode to connection, calm, and joy.

Freeing Ourselves, Freeing Our Children

Linda Eskay is a paradigm disruptor, transformational coach, and international speaker who helps parents, teens, and twentysomethings create clarity out of chaos in today’s anxiety-filled world.

With a gift for seeing beyond surface struggles to the deeper patterns shaping behavior, Linda helps young people and their families break free from limiting conditioning. Her work equips the next generation with tools to build resilience, restore harmony at home, and thrive in uncertain times. We’re living in unprecedented times — and Linda shows why we need unprecedented solutions.

Everything About Tenacity Is Wrong

When everything changed, Linda wasn’t in crisis—she was having a conversation with an AI chatbot. That single sentence it gave her became a mirror, revealing how quietly she’d learned to live small.

Her talk, The Art of Tenacity, is a powerful reflection on reinvention, resilience, and giving yourself permission to begin again. Linda reminds us that starting over isn’t failure—it’s forward motion.
