Episode Summary:
In this powerful episode of the School of Midlife Podcast, Laurie shares the behind-the-scenes story of how The Gap Year was born — and why it's exactly what high-achieving midlife women need right now. If you’re waking up at 2 a.m. wondering, “Is this all there is?” this episode is your wake-up call, your roadmap, and your permission slip to make a bold change without blowing up your life.

You’ll hear:

  • How Laurie went from partnership-track attorney to burning it down (in the best way) to build the School of Midlife
  • Why traditional “success” leaves so many women feeling empty — and how the Gap Year helps you redefine it
  • Why you can’t keep waiting for “someday” and why the time to start is right now
  • What makes The Gap Year unlike any other personal development program
  • Exactly what’s included in the Gap Year (including the 6-week Midlife Best Life Accelerator and monthly Masterclasses)

If you’ve ever thought, “I should be grateful for my life, so why do I feel so damn stuck?” — this one’s for you.
