She has been married for 37 years, has two daughters, is a grandma of 5, and is also a crafter, designer, artist, former actress, herbal medicine maker, avid knitter, loves sewing, has traveled the world, and has colorful stories of being raised on a houseboat!  You’ll also hear about Laura’s lessons in business, the consequences of lacking clear and effective communication, what she has experienced as being a nurse herself, and the importance of diabetic foot care.  Then, you’ll also hear how she landed a role in a movie from 1980 that is banned in the UK, what Laura would change if she could go back in time, and  ways she is optimizing her health.    Get in touch with Laura:    Laura’s Also Answered in this episode: What was Laura’s impetus for getting laser-focused on something like diabetic foot care?  How did she pioneer in her field?  How did Laura’s upbringing influence her out-of-the-box thinking?
