Lauren is a wife to a wonderful husband and her perfect soulmate, mother to two energetic and wild little boys, but most of all, she's an imperfect Christian who tries to be the best version of herself, loved and created by God. She has her Bachelor's degree in business from the University of Florida and her doctorate in physical therapy, obtained from the University of St. Augustine in 2015. After a rewarding career as a physical therapist, she’s stepped out of her comfort zone to also become an author, motivator, and public speaker with a passion for spreading hope to help others recover from their own tragedies and difficult times.
