In this solo episode, Laura reflects on turning 50 - the milestone that wobbled her but has become clarifying, and in some ways, quite energising.
She opens up about what this past year has stirred up: identity, comparison, starting again, shadow work, creative resets, and reconnecting to the free-spirited side she put on pause while raising a family and running a household.
From tearing down her social media and rebuilding from scratch, to rediscovering the hobbies she loves, to recognising how much she’s still learning (and loving that about herself) — this episode is an honest, nourishing reminder that you’re allowed to start over at any age.
If you’ve ever hit a milestone birthday and thought, “Wait… is this where I’m supposed to be?”, this one’s for you.
Key take-aways:
Milestones don’t define you - they remind you. Turning 50 brought clarity, not crisis.
Starting over is always available. You’re never too old to rebuild, refresh, or redirect.
Your “big kid energy” matters. Fun and joy aren’t luxuries - they’re anchors.
Learning is a lifelong identity, not a flaw. Curiosity is your superpower, not something to justify.
Shadow work can reveal what’s been silently holding you back. Awareness creates freedom.
You don’t need to fit the mould. Your path doesn’t need to look like anyone else’s.
Community and real connection matter more than algorithms.
Following the breadcrumbs leads to the next right step — always!
