WELCOME...

The first thing most people notice about me is my head. At the age of 11, I lost all of my hair to a 'disease' called Alopecia Areata. Besides having no hair, I am perfectly healthy. This is a condition that affects about 5 million people in America and 1.7 percent of the total population. It's not been an easy journey, though it's one that I am eternally grateful for.

My mission is to generate the conversation of love around the world. I knew from a very young age that I was meant to travel the world, meet my brothers and sisters and share the message of love. Who knew, that the access to fulfilling on this destiny would be through losing my hair? It first taught me incredible lessons of understanding and compassion for humanity, and then after 19 long years of wearing wigs I'm finally learning the biggest lesson-the ability to love myself. After all that's what we're here for, right? To love and be loved. That's the message of my first book, I Love You More. It captures the power and magic of unconditional love shared between a mother and child. Under my company, I Shine Inc., self-published we sold 179,000 copies. As of November 2007 with our fantastic new publisher Sourcebooks/Jabberwocky we are now soaring to over 225,000 copies sold! There is nothing I love more than sharing my story, so that others might see, that no matter what challenges they are facing, that anything is possible with love.

Laura is a sought after speaker and has been featured in many national and local publications including USA Today, The Miami Herald, The Sun-Sentinel and Writer Magazine.

"Love is the conversation that erases fear. Since 9/11 the world has become filled with a conversation of hatred, terror, war... fear. It's time for us to be responsible for filling the world up with a conversation that will empower us, one of compassion, understanding, wisdom, joy... love."
