Can laughter be a life’s calling? For Laura Robinson, it just might be.

This week on Resonate, we welcome Laura Robinson—actor, author, game inventor, musician, and all-around creative force. From co-creating the iconic board game Balderdash to appearing in fan favorites like Frasier and Cheers, Laura shares how she’s followed her curiosity (and her heart) across multiple industries.

She opens up about the origin of her bestselling Chicken Soup book, Count Your Blessings, the gift of growing up in a musical home, and her late-in-life return to her deepest love: songwriting. Plus, we get to hear her perform her heart-stirring original song, “30 Summers,” live.

Whether you're a multi-passionate creator or someone who just needs permission to begin, this episode is a joyful nudge forward.
