The Story Within the Stillness

By Linda Lambert Pestana

What happens when life, as you know it, ends in an instant-and you're forced to begin again in a body that no longer moves, but a spirit that refuses to be still?

After a devastating accident left her a quadriplegic, Linda could have retreated. Instead, she became more luminous. What's always struck me is not just her resilience, but her radiant honesty. We've shared countless conversations-raw, tender, unfiltered-about pain, purpose, doubt, and what it really means to surrender.

Linda's story is not one of easy inspiration. It's a journey through deep faith, then fear, then faith again-stronger, wiser, and more expansive. She doesn't sugarcoat the hard parts. She invites you into them.

And in doing so, she offers something rare: the sacred permission to question, to rage, to cry, and to still believe in life itself. This book is a testament to her spirit-and to the fierce, unshakable light that lives inside us all.

I've known Linda for over 25 years-as a friend, a former nun, a spiritual seeker, and as a woman who lives her truth. What she shares is the kind of wisdom that only comes from having truly lived in the depths-and returned bearing light.
