I Failed but I’m not a Failure. Lessons from My Latest Face Plant.
In this raw and honest episode, Laura opens up about a big behind-the-scenes decision: cancelling her 2025 retreat. Instead of brushing it under the rug, she’s sharing it all — the real story of what happened, what it taught her, and why she doesn’t actually see it as a failure. If you've ever had to pivot, cancel a launch, or walk away from something you love, this one will hit home.
This is a must-listen for entrepreneurs navigating the messy middle, rethinking what success looks like, and learning to lead with integrity and self-trust.
