Linda Esposito, MPH
Health Educator & Coach • Author • Advocate • Person Living with Bronchiectasis
I founded BE CLEAR with Bronchiectasis® after being diagnosed with bronchiectasis in 2017. With a background in public health and firsthand experience living with this chronic lung condition, I set out to create the kind of bronchiectasis education and support I wish had existed when I was first diagnosed.
I hold a Master of Public Health from Yale University and have spent my career translating complex medical information into practical and easy-to-understand tools that support everyday well-being. I have worked across diverse healthcare settings, consistently focused on making health education accessible, compassionate, and grounded in real life.
Living with bronchiectasis has given me a deeper understanding of what people need. Not just clinical facts, but personalized guidance, encouragement, and connection. Through BE CLEAR with Bronchiectasis®, I bring together evidence-based education, patient-centered coaching, and a growing community of support for people living with bronchiectasis and related NTM lung disease.
My work is grounded in the belief that knowledge empowers, but lasting change happens when education is paired with empathy and action. Whether through one-on-one consultations, webinars, or written resources, my goal is to help people feel informed, confident, and hopeful as they navigate life with bronchiectasis.
If you’re ready to take a more active role in your care, I invite you to explore the educational and consultation services created for you and the broader BE community.
Together, we can build an approach that supports daily self-care, strengthens confidence, and helps you live well with bronchiectasis.
