Heather Linchenko was raised in a Christian home in Idaho, the eighth of ten children. She served as a missionary in Belgium and France and was privileged to work for several years as the executive assistant to Stephen R. Covey, author of the best-selling book, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. She married a man who grew up as one of two siblings in an atheist home in communist Russia. As she and her husband raised their five children, their polar opposite backgrounds necessitated a break from convention and tradition, emboldening Heather to break ground on a garden of fresh ideas. Her greatest passion is helping others create a culture of laughter, learning, and openness in the home.

She mutinied against today’s broken approach to teaching math to young children by creating a truly new and compelling times tables product/program (for kids as young as 5 or 6) that creates in them a flexible, math-ready brain and a belief that they are smart [MathHacked.com]. She loves to see young kids thrive on the addictive feeling of success.

She has authored three books: Letters from Kazakhstan, which details her family’s 1998 adventures in post-Soviet Kazakhstan; Mom! You’re Working Too Hard, which teaches parents and teachers how to educate children in a way everyone loves (no resistance!); and [hot off the press] “I Meant Well' And Other Words That Kill Relationships, wherein she shares a wealth of knowledge on how to make bad relationships good and good relationships vibrant. As time permits, she enjoys mentoring others through their relationship conundrums.              

She has developed a one-day intensive training called “Expand Your Influence” wherein she trains busy executives how—through the development of specific mental and verbal relationship skills—to fast-track their way to greater personal and business success. One of her greatest compliments is to have been referred to as “the relationship scientist.”

Her central guiding quote is: “From the closed-mindedness that won’t accept new truth; from the laziness that will accept half-truth; From the arrogance that thinks it knows all truth; Good Lord, deliver me” (Kenyan Prayer).
