In this episode, I sit down with long-time friend and Toronto-based independent artist ohlaur, otherwise known as Laura Guberney, to chat about her pursuits as a musician and how she has navigated her anxiety while writing music & releasing it to the world.  We chat about: - Navigating anxiety as an independent artist  - The emotions behind her songs, "Honestly" and "Romanticize" - Music & emotions  - Lessons learned & advice for other artists navigating anxiety ... And so much MORE!
