“The pen and the written word hold a great deal of power” –Andy Biersack
Laura describes journaling–the craft of putting pen to paper–as the singular spiritual practice that has spanned from early childhood to the present, allowing her to process, reflect, celebrate, grow, change, and challenge herself. As a teen, Laura knew that she wanted to write books and articles and often found herself writing think-pieces on various social and cultural issues as a way of understanding the world around her, even if those pieces would only be seen by her.
Today, Laura has moved her passion and spiritual practice of writing into the public sphere through social media, a blog, newsletter, and yes, a book!
“Should Free” Living
What happens when you realize how much of your life is driven by “should”? For those healing from religious trauma, learning to distinguish obligation from genuine desire can be a powerful step toward greater freedom, healthier boundaries, and more authentic relationships. Explore the journey of moving from a life shaped by “should” to one guided by choice, connection, and joy, including the simple but transformative practice of learning to say no.
Dating after Purity and Courtship Culture
Dating after Purity Culture can feel overwhelming, especially when you were never taught how to navigate healthy relationships, boundaries, sex, or trust your own instincts. Stay present, trust yourself, set boundaries, and approach dating with curiosity rather than pressure to find “the one.” Most importantly, you are not behind. You are learning skills you were never given the opportunity to learn.
