We cover:

- “Balance” , what lessons has Lauralie learned over the years, how have those affected jer priorities and values now, what if anything would she change about her journey?
- Feedback from this years Olympia and her experience this year compared to previous Olympia appearances: What adaptations have they made to her approach in readiness for the Arnold Ohio?
- Training considerations and how she has had to adapt over time, to refine her physique? 
- Their opinion of the development of the class over the years? What if anything has changed?
- Off season and her approach to ensuring she pours into her life beyond the stage.
- Challenges along the way; has she ever encountered self doubt? 
- Advice for athletes; the importance of remaining present, absorbing the process and embracing all that comes with it.
