Wake the F Up: Finding Fun, Freedom, and Fulfillment with Laurie Hawkins
What if fun, freedom, and fulfillment were the missing pieces in your success story?
In this week’s episode of WTF: Where’s the Fun?, we sit down with Laurie Hawkins, leadership and business strategist, catalyst for transformation, and creator of the Wake the F Up festival, for a vibrant conversation about shaking off outdated definitions of success and stepping into a more aligned way of leading and living.
Laurie’s journey from the traditional corporate grind to a life filled with harmony, joy, and actual freedom is a masterclass in following the nudge—even when it doesn’t make sense. With her genuine energy and unapologetic passion, Laurie helps ambitious leaders bridge the gap between ambition and alignment, proving that you can achieve big goals and have a freaking blast along the way!
In this episode, we dive into:
✨ Why hustling harder isn’t the answer—and what is.
✨ How to balance soul-driven strategy with real results.
✨ The power of following the nudge (even when it doesn’t make sense).
✨ Why “Pop the Cork Fridays” became Laurie’s secret weapon for joy and gratitude.
✨ Simple ways to create more fun, play, and harmony in your everyday life.
This episode is your permission slip to redefine success, ditch the grind, and create a life you’re obsessed with.
