About Laura

My Story

For years, I’ve carried a heart for encouraging and supporting women. This calling grew from my own journey through struggle, loss, and feeling weighed down by life’s challenges. Through reflection, faith, and resilience, I’ve stepped into a place of joy, freedom, and hope.

Renewal Collective is the result. It’s my way of sharing what I’ve learned and creating a space where women can heal, grow, and discover their inner strength. My retreats offer creativity, reflection, connection, and rest - gentle ways to reclaim joy and confidence in community.

I’ve learned that each chapter of life carries the potential for renewal. My mission is to help women take courageous steps into the next chapter, full of possibility, healing, and joy.

What is Renewal

Renewal is the gentle process of reconnecting with yourself, finding peace, and stepping into your next chapter with courage and hope. At Renewal Collective, it happens in intentional ways:

Reflection

Taking time to be present with yourself through guided reflection on where you are and where life could lead.

Creativity

Using art, journaling, and other creative practices to express yourself and explore your inner world.

Rest

Giving yourself permission to slow down, breathe, and restore your mind, body, and spirit.

Connection

Sharing moments with women who understand, support, and uplift each other.

Growth

Moving forward with renewed confidence, clarity, and joy.

The Creative Process

Creativity is the way I connect with my emotions. Making something has a way of healing us, helping us to remember to love ourselves. These photographs and pieces reflect the quiet moments that inspire me.
