Lynda Bergh Herring | Licensed Private Investigator, speaker, and children’s advocate.

I started as a local nail tech in Kentucky and quickly realized that I was doing more than just nails, I was impacting girls’ lives, helping them go through daily challenges, and having someone to talk to.

I transitioned to social media coaching in 2023, where I would help girls build a personal brand and monetize from their Instagram to have time, location, and financial freedom. Read more>>
