In Episode 5 of the i am Laura Podcast - Juggling Chronic Illness, Kids, a Job and a Dream, we dive into the challenges of balancing a career while living with a chronic illness, especially when it’s invisible to others. We discuss the frustration and discrimination that can arise in the workplace due to a lack of understanding and compassion. It’s not something we choose, and yet we often face additional hurdles simply trying to do our jobs well.

How we can raise awareness, advocate for fair treatment, and continue to pursue our careers and dreams despite the obstacles.

Additionally, I’m excited to introduce my new podcast, "A Sprinkle of Sunshine - Your Daily Dose of Joy." This series offers tiny, quick episodes filled with little things you can do to bring joy to your day, complementing this podcast perfectly.

Juggling Chronic Illness, Kids, a Job and a Dream

Are you a busy mum? An entrepreneur? Or, do you have a job? I know you are trying to juggle so many things and then, just to add to the mix, you also have 1, maybe 2 or 3 chronic illnesses...

I am all of those things, but don't want to give up on wanting more and getting all the joy I can out of my life.

In this podcast, I share the raw realities of living with chronic illness while juggling motherhood, career, and still chasing my dreams. This is a journey of resilience & acceptance.

I offer insights, support, and encouragement drawn from my own experiences to help fellow female entrepreneurs find hope and inspiration. I also share the practical strategies I used to help me manage my mental health when times were particularly tough.

Whether you're living with chronic illness or supporting someone who is, I offer uplifting stories and a dose of positivity.

Join me to have someone that you can listen to for a few minutes, that understands life dealing with chronic illnesses as well as trying to keep up with everything else!

There will be a new episode every month, so subscribe to stay updated & join my email list to receive news and the free journaling prompts that helped me with my mental health during tough times.

Together we can tackle life with chronic illness with resilience, hope, bravery, and strength.

Keep sharing your magic!
