I'm your host, Lauren Manuel. As a woman, mother, single parent and globally published travel journalist who has transitioned through different life stages, careers, divorce, trauma and navigating the addiction of a loved one- I've had to embark on a journey. A very wild, beautiful journey that's led me to discover different habits, practices and daily tools that helped me return to myself, helped me ground and build resilience. More importantly, I've come to realise the full impact my own mental health has on my ability to raise children who thrive. And in order to do that, I need to learn how to fill my own cup first. 

So Wild&Grounded is really an invitation to journey with me as I join experts and experienced women to discover fresh habits and daily tools to add to your kit which will help us all do life a bit better. And ultimately thrive. Progress, not perfection. I'll hope you'll join me.
