S2 | Episode 92: Agililty and Our Relationship with Ourselves with Laura DiBenedetto
About the Episode
Today we’re going to talk about agility in how we relate to ourselves. While we’ve all grown up with unique backgrounds, habits, and things we were taught as the true measures of success, as we go through life we can often find that those things, even if well-intentioned, are either incorrect, or don’t apply to us as they might have been intended. The challenge, then, is to find a way to continually improve ourselves in order to be better. I talk a lot about agile processes and how companies can use them to improve everything from customer and employee experience to branding and marketing, but today we’re going to talk about applying transformation to one’s self. To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome Laura DiBenedetto, Best Selling Author and CEO of Vision Advertising.
About Laura DiBenedetto
Laura DiBenedettoLongBiographyTEDx Speaker,#1 Bestselling author of The Six Habits and Life Mastery Coach, Laura DiBenedetto teaches how to create the life of our dreams without sacrificing what we love. Laura is the founder and CEO of the award-winning marketing company, Vision Advertising, located in the greater Boston area. Laura created, built and ran the growth-oriented enterprise for 19 years with tremendous success, before retiring from active involvement in 2018 at age 37, passing the reins to her successor. Over the years, Laura personally sold several million dollars in ongoing contracts, was featured on Fox News and other Bostonprogramming several times, was publicly recognized for business accomplishments, and was named a 40 Under Forty winner at only age 23.
Having started her first business at 19, Laura began to search for her next big project in 2012, finally finding it right on the cusp of retirement. While Laura’s career had been speckled with accomplishments and accolades, when she retired, she was simply burnt out and unhappy. After years of classes, workshops, books, and more, Laura was confused and wondering why the personal development world had let her down and sought to solve the problem. She went on a radical journey of self-discovery, research, and testing, determined to find energy and lasting, fulfilling happiness in all areas of life.
Laura found the answers to the question that plagued her (and so many of us)–six of them, in fact. She is devoted to sharing the universally applicable and deeply liberating truths she discovered, so that others may find their own path out of misery and into lasting, fulfilling happiness and limitless possibility.
Laura moved away from Boston in 2019 to the island of Maui, Hawaii, and lives in tropical bliss with her husband, cats and dog.
