Author Laurie Collister on Her Memoir "A Different Kind of Vow"

from Big Blend Radio

On this inspiring episode of Big Blend Radio’s "Quality of Life" Show, we’re joined by counselor, journalist, and debut memoirist Laurie Collister to discuss her powerful new book, "A Different Kind of Vow: Rewriting My Happily Ever After."Through humor, honesty, and deep reflection, Laurie shares how surviving a house fire that spared her lifelong journals led her to reexamine her path—and ultimately redefine success, purpose, and identity. From choosing not to follow traditional expectations of marriage and motherhood to embracing spiritual exploration and self-discovery, her journey offers a fresh perspective on what it means to live authentically.In this conversation, we explore the healing power of journaling, memoir writing as a tool for growth, and how to uncover your own “sacred vow”—a personal sense of purpose that guides your life.🔗 Learn more: https://lauriecollister.com/  Hosted on Acast.
