Laura Yamin is the host a daily lifestyle podcast call Say Yes Podcast. In her spare time, you will find Laura trying something new outside of her comfort zone such as speed dating, learning to speak French and how to knit.

Laura's definition of success: "Success is a feeling. A place of being content. I was doing everything on paper that was suppose to be successful, but I felt empty. I felt like there was something more I need to have happen."

Things we talk about with Laura:

• Leaving her family in the Caribbean to go to college in Syracuse, NY.
• The high achieving lifestyle and having an identity crisis.
• Realizing entrepreneurship is not for her.
• Working in a job that most people think is glamorous, but really was just long hours and attention to detail.
• Running towards success vs. being on a hamster wheel.
• quitting is not a bad thing.
• not having a safety net and still jumping.
• conquering her fear of doing burlesque.
• Taking ownership of her job search.
• acknowledge that it is your journey/your decisions.
• NO. is a complete sentence.
• Books Laura mentions:
  • The Luckiest Girl Alive
  • Opening Belle
