Linda Bamber-Olson graduated from CSU with a BS in Nutrition and taught middle school for many years. But when her mother and sister were both diagnosed with breast cancer at the same time, she turned her attention to learn how to protect herself. She refocused her talents to natural health and received an ND certification and started BRAS, Breast Research Awareness & Support, a business to teach other women how to protect their breast health.

Interaction with clients during the last fifteen years taught her that a much simpler, easier way for protection from many health problems was needed. Frequencies were the answer! In 2019, she developed and launched the WAVwatch, the world’s first sound therapy wearable.

She teaches, writes, and speaks on many podcasts about healing with sound frequencies with a passion. Born with hearing in only one ear, she learned to adapt early. “They didn’t discover my dis-ability until I was in the third grade.” By then, “I had learned to stay still, orient towards the sound and absorb information.” Her ability to share sound ideas has changed the lives of thousands of people, providing them with a safe, affordable, drug-free, self-care tool.
