Laura Smyth

Про цей епізод

<p>We are starting a new era of the podcast as we mean to go on, with a brilliant guest who epitomises all the things we celebrate on this show. </p><br><p><a href="https://laurasmyth.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Laura Smyth</a> decided to radically change her life at the midpoint, leaving her dependable job as a teacher for the uncertain world of stand up comedy. But just as she was getting into her stride, Laura was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. She talks to Gabby about all she has learned from that experience, including how she dragged herself out of a pit of despair and resentment by learning to love herself fully and throwing herself unabashedly down what she describes as a wellness rabbithole. Laura also speaks about learning that stress is a sign to rest, and why she doesn’t feel bad about saying no to things anymore. </p><br><p>Laura’s story proves that it’s never too late to build the life you want, but also that things don’t always go to plan, so don’t wait until you’re facing death to really start living. </p><br><p>You can catch her on tour in 2024 - grab your tickets <a href="https://laurasmyth.com/pages/tour-dates" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>. </p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
