Peace doesn’t arrive when life finally slows down — it arrives when you decide to stop letting chaos audition for a leading role.

In this episode of Soulfully Unbothered, Laura unpacks the messy truth about boundaries, burnout, and why peace sometimes shows up in the only quiet place left: a locked bathroom with a candle or a stolen moment in your car with coffee you don’t have to share.

Whether you’re raising kids, juggling work, navigating relationships, or simply trying to survive your own calendar… this episode hands you permission to reclaim your calm without apology.

Includes a short meditation at the end — your new 60-second reset for the days that feel too loud.

Sometimes the people you think you’re helping are the ones holding you together.
In this deeply personal episode, Laura shares the story of how seven children, a Romanian orphanage, and a shy 10-year-old girl in foster care shaped her understanding of endurance, compassion, and calling.

From swinging on playground swings to navigating heartbreak in a system that doesn’t always protect its kids, this episode explores what it means to stay — even when the outcome isn’t what you dreamed.

If you’ve ever wondered whether small acts of love matter, this is the reminder your heart’s been waiting for.

Exhaustion isn’t a personality trait — and it’s definitely not a requirement for purpose.
In this episode, Laura opens up about her own burnout, what launching a nonprofit taught her about boundaries, and how to build a dream without losing your joy.
Warm, honest, and quietly funny, this conversation will remind you that rest is part of the calling — not a detour from it.
