TEDx Speaker, #1 Bestselling author of The Six Habits and Life Mastery Coach, Laura DiBenedetto teaches how to create the life of our dreams without sacrificing what we love. Laura is the founder and CEO of the award-winning marketing company, Vision Advertising, located in the greater Boston area. Laura created, built and ran the growth-oriented enterprise for 19 years with tremendous success, before retiring from active involvement in 2018 at age 37, passing the reins to her successor. Over the years, Laura personally sold several million dollars in ongoing contracts, was featured on Fox News and other Boston programming several times, was publicly recognized for business accomplishments, and was named a 40 Under Forty winner at only age 23. 

Having started her first business at 19, Laura began to search for her next big project in 2012, finally finding it right on the cusp of retirement. While Laura’s career had been speckled with accomplishments and accolades, when she retired, she was simply burnt out and unhappy. After years of classes, workshops, books, and more, Laura was confused and wondering why the personal development world had let her down and sought to solve the problem. She went on a radical journey of self-discovery, research, and testing, determined to find energy and lasting, fulfilling happiness in all areas of life. 

Laura found the answers to the question that plagued her (and so many of us) – six of them, in fact. She is devoted to sharing the universally applicable and deeply liberating truths she discovered, so that others may find their own path out of misery and into lasting, fulfilling happiness and limitless possibility. 

Laura moved away from Boston in 2019 to the island of Maui, Hawaii and lives in tropical bliss with her husband, cats and dog.

This episode is an interview I did with my good friend Nat! She shares her story about being married to a narcissist for 2 years. She had no idea her ex husband was a narc until they were in the process of divorcing. The signs were there, which she talks about, but when you are in the bubble of the relationshit the signs can be very easily missed. She also offers hope to anyone who is currently struggling with a breakup or divorce (or upcoming breakup or divorce) from a narcissist that it is absolutely possible to find love with a normal person who is not a narcissist once you take some time to yourself and do some healing. You are not doomed to repeat the pattern forever! 

I had a great podcast interview with Beatrice Kamau! We discussed healing from narcissistic abuse, self love, and embodying what it means to heal. 

Beatrice Kamau is what she likes to call a Registered Dietitian by trade and an inner child healing coach by vocation- she chose one, and the other chose her. She spent most of her life living passively, letting life happen to her as opposed to letting life happen through and for her.

Beatrice lived at the mercy of what other people thought about her, she was codependent on nearly everyone that walked into my life, she had no self esteem, and she was terrified of making mistakes. It was only during a very low point she experienced during grad school where she asked herself, “Where does your need for perfectionism come from?”. You see, this was a critical moment for her. For the first time in her life, she asked herself about the origins of my behaviour instead of  blaming herself for them.

That was the beginning of her self awareness, her transformation, her healing from inner child wounds & codependency, and her deep and unconditional love for herself. From that moment on, Beatrice realized the woman she was always searching for, the woman she had always wished to become was always within. She just had to dig in and find her- and free her. Now, she wants to help you do the same. Beatrice's deepest hope for you is that you find the truth of who you are and that you find restoration and deep healing from your inner child wounds.

I had a great interview with Vera Wilhelmsen about her healing journey from chronic fatigue syndrome. 

Vera Wilhelmsen is a Norwegian girlwoman (her words) with an incredible story. In her 20's she became bed bound for 3 years with chronic fatigue syndrome and was too sick to even sit in a wheelchair or leave the house. After giving up on the healthcare system she fought her way out of it completely on her own and is today fully recovered, works, exercises and shakes her butt at every opportunity. After her physical recovery she quickly realized that the cause of her illness and suffering was narcissistic abuse. Her healing journey from childhood abuse and medical neglect is still ongoing but she is now sharing her story and her joy on YouTube. In one year she has gone from (her words) a grey, people-pleasing, moldable blob to a color explosion!
