Listen "Becoming content"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Laura gets real about what it’s like to be an older dog learning new tricks. Training for Ironman while working full time left her wondering how anyone manages to also create polished social media content. She talks about the reality behind those “day in the life” reels, and why sometimes it’s okay if the only record of your training is simply… showing up for yourself.From there, Laura dives into the bigger picture: how goal-setting and vision boards helped her imagine a different kind of future, and how imposter syndrome crept in once she stepped away from 26 years in corporate finance to explore a possible new career in sport and wellness.But there’s joy, too — in the freedom to experiment, to try things just for the sake of it, and to see what sticks. Even if not everything works out, the act of exploring is valuable in itself.✨ In this episode:The hidden challenge of “content pressure” in the age of social mediaHow tools like goal-setting and vision boards can bring clarityThe imposter syndrome of starting over in midlifeFinding joy and freedom in trying new paths, even without guaranteesLaura also calls out to other women who have switched industries — whether by choice or necessity — and invites you to share your stories on the podcast. Because change can feel less daunting when we know we’re not the only ones doing it.📩 If you’ve made a big career switch (into sport, wellness, or beyond), Laura would love to hear from you.
