Living Out Loud with Laura
Living Out Loud with Laura
Being a strong woman means respecting yourself enough to stand up for yourself, the causes you believe in and the welfare of others.
Join Laura weekly as she navigates this crazy world of being being a loud proud ally of 2 adult LGBTQ+ children while being the wife of 29+ years to her high school sweetheart, only child to aging parents, and learning to live with chronic health issues. Laura will share her journey from stumbling through her reply to her youngest daughters news of being transgender to being not only a loud proud ally but also an advocate for the entire LGBTQ+ community. Many episode will feature different LGBTQ+ topics designed to share knowledge, understanding and compassion. Guests will be invited onto the show to discuss their experiences openly and honestly with respect.
Laura is a previvor for breast cancer and has recently completed a double prophylactic mastectomy with reconstruction. She will continue to require frequent monitoring due to a high family history and will openly be discussing and sharing this experience as well.
If you’re looking to be entertained and empowered by a sarcastic Gen X’er who is intent on living her life out loud so that others can too, come along for a colorful adventure.

In this personal monologue, I'm opening up about what it truly means to live as a "medical zebra." We are diving into the medical school maxim—"When you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras"—and breaking down how this rigid mindset leads to devastating diagnostic delays for the Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and Dysautonomia/POTS communities.
From corporate insurance denials to being told symptoms are "just anxiety," I’m sharing my raw journey starting back in 2011. This space is dedicated to healing, equal justice, and connection. 🤍
