Lynda Bayada was just a girl who decided to go for it. Giving up her corporate career and all the creature comforts that went with it, including the adoring approval of most she knew, she decided to take a leap into the unknown of running a business, not knowing if she’d fail or fly. Turns out, she’s done both.
With a background in corporate management and planning, personal development, training & education, and human behaviour, Lynda uses her extensive professional and personal experience to communicate the realness of life.
Having written psychology, business and management based articles for Flying Solo, Australian Broker, Mortgage Professionals Australia and Elephant Journal, Lynda has decided to make it all personal by penning her memoir. Adventures of a Corporate Hippie is her debut novel.

Hello Everyone!
It's so lovely to be back in your inbox with another update.
I spoke to Nick once again this morning. He is working damn hard on this book for us. Honestly. I couldn't have asked for a better editor and I don't think I realised that exactly until he was sharing his passion for creating the cover and I saw just how detail oriented he was over it. He wants this to have its best chance out in the world just as much as I do. He has made it personal and that I have huge respect for.
So, yes, we have a cover. And it's beautiful. With a few carefully selected images and his magical program, we've really got a look and feel that is worthy of the words.
Nick also created the format for the interior this last week. Once I handed it over to him, he really went to work on refining the interior look alongside the words.
As for the words themselves, it's actually done. Argh!
I had a BIG list of questions this morning for him such as, "have I written too much about this?" and "do I repeat myself on that?" You know, the usual questioning-yourself-crazy.
He then gave me this quote by Paul Valery, "A poem is never finished, only abandoned."
And then he said this to me, "Lynda, a book is an artifact of time, which you will always be moving past. It's natural to want to freeze. But you will outgrow it daily. There is no end to that so it's best to make a decision and draw a line in the sand. It's natural that you're feeling this way. Every author does. But I think the book is great right now, as it is. Nothing needs to change."
His reassuring words have allowed me to let go even more.
Next steps; the book gets handed over to a proof reader once I do small things like write my bio, acknowledgements section and back of book blurb. I plan on getting to that this weekend!
Thank you all again for you support.
With love
Lynda
