Through poetry, prose and non-fiction, Laurie is on a mission to help others discover and thrive in their unique human blueprint. A survivor, Life Coach, nature-lover and artist, Laurie writes from deep wells of experience, marking the trail on her path to deeper engagement, meaningful impact and less stress through simpler, more honest living. Laurie approaches life as she does a canvas, finding treasure in the little things, and celebrating beauty through writing, painting, baking and gardening.

Despite an insatiable curiosity and seemingly endless list of interests, her faith and her family are top priority. She and husband Grant enjoy collaborative play in woodcraft, Celtic music, and beekeeping, ever dreaming of more time with children Kelli, Katherine, Jackson and Graceann. They live in Nashville, Tennessee but dream of life in the Scottish Highlands.
