Life Lessons with Layla

Through my adult life, I’ve learned a lot of important lessons—some of them the hard way! But the most important thing I’ve learned? If you’re looking for success, love, stability, and a career you’re crazy about, do not believe anyone that says it can happen overnight!

Today, I’m going to tell you a little about myself and the journey that got me here. I’m a former public school teacher, homeschool mom, military veteran, real estate investor, runner, and travel junkie. I’m a jack of all trades and also a professional juggler of everything in our household.

School isn’t in a brick building anymore, but we can learn lessons from everywhere and from everyone. 

Tune in and listen to the first episode of Life Lessons with Layla. You’ll hear about my story, my life philosophies, and maybe even learn a little something along the way. Going forward, I hope to bring different lessons and different guests each week, whether they be national speakers or average people with amazing stories to tell—because I know we all have wisdom to share.

• Some of my goals for the show (01:11)
