Show Notes

Laura shares how the isolation of Covid forced her to confront her unhappiness and ultimately led her to completely rebuild her life in her 50s and 60s. After separating from her husband and moving home to care for her parents with Alzheimer’s, she unexpectedly found herself rediscovering the passions she had abandoned decades earlier — music, piano, dance, and creativity. Now, Laura is thriving as a musician, producer, dancer, and studio manager, proving that it’s never too late to start over, chase your dreams, or become the person you were always meant to be. Her story is a powerful reminder of resilience, reinvention, and the magic of following your inner calling.
