Lynda Sunshine West

Fear-Breakthrough Coach for the Aphantasia Community At age 61, Lynda Sunshine West discovered she has aphantasia. What at first seemed like a limitation has become one of her greatest strengths, shaping how she approaches both life and coaching. A decade earlier, she had already proven her commitment to growth by breaking through one fear a day for an entire year—365 fears in 365 days. That transformational journey taught her that fear isn’t something to avoid, but something that can be embraced and used as fuel for growth. Today, Lynda Sunshine specializes in helping people with aphantasia break through fear in ways that are practical, supportive, and action-oriented. She works with clients to reframe challenges, strengthen self-confidence, and move forward at a pace that feels right for them. Her coaching focuses on: Adjustment to Life Changes — navigating transitions with clarity and resilience. Life Coaching — setting meaningful goals and taking consistent action. Personal Development — discovering strengths and building habits that create growth. Self-Esteem & Confidence — replacing fear and doubt with courage and self-trust. Seniors / Older Adults — guiding later-in-life journeys of purpose and fulfillment. Lynda Sunshine’s guiding mantra is: Do It BECAUSE You’re Scared. She is passionate about helping others in the aphantasia community use their unique wiring as an advantage to create the life they want.

Lynda Sunshine West is passionate about helping people with aphantasia break through fear and embrace their strengths. Having lived most of her life unaware she had aphantasia, she understands the confusion and challenges that can come with discovering it later in life.
At age 61, she finally had a name for her experience, and that realization brought clarity to her own personal growth journey.
In 2015, Lynda had transformed her life by breaking through one fear a day for an entire year—365 fears in 365 days. That bold commitment gave her deep insight into how fear works and how to move past it. Today, she draws on those lessons to support others in the aphantasia community, guiding them to see their unique brain wiring as an advantage rather than a limitation.
Her practice is rooted in action-oriented, compassionate coaching. Lynda helps clients reframe fear, strengthen self-confidence, and create practical strategies for growth and resilience. Whether navigating life changes, building self-esteem, or stepping into new opportunities, she empowers individuals to move forward with courage.
Her philosophy is simple: Fear doesn’t have to hold you back. It can propel you forward. Do It BECAUSE You're Scared.
