About this episode
One moment I was pulling dried beef out of my sports bra in a gym parking lot. The next? A 70,000+ view viral moment on LinkedIn.In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of a post I never thought would land on a “professional” platform—and what happened when I hit publish anyway. This isn’t just a funny story about pot roast in a sports bra (though yes, that happened). It’s about the power of showing up as your full self, especially in spaces that want to polish and package you.You’ll hear what happened, how the internet responded, and why this unexpected post turned into one of the best reminders I’ve had in a long time: People want to connect with you, not your filtered version.In this episode:The real (and ridiculous) story that sparked a viral postWhy I almost didn’t post it on LinkedIn—and what changed my mindWhat “professionalism” really means (hint: not self-abandonment)The powerful ripple effect of being yourself in rooms full of titlesHow your most human moments can create the deepest connectionResources from this episodeConnect with LauraAura on LinkedInReady to show up more boldly—in your brand, your voice, or your next move?Book a free 30-minute Clarity Session and we’ll figure out what’s keeping you stuck, where you’re holding back, and how to move through it with more ease and alignment.👉🏻 lauraaura.com/clarity ✨ The Gutsy CollectiveYou know you’re meant for more—but you’re craving community, real-time support, and tools that actually work.
