Standout Quotes from Laurie:
- "I knew that my calling on my life was to help people heal in a different way— more one-on-one setting— and so I couldn't do that. I knew my calling wasn't specifically to children, that was seasonal for me. I knew that my calling and my gifts and talents were for women, due to my own personal story and my professional story, so I was limited when I was working for an agency..." (04:13)
- "Nothing is too big to invest in you. Because guess what? You have a legacy attached to your investment." (09:27)
- "The people that I was connecting with were the people that I needed to connect with for the finished product of who I was gonna become." (15:18)
