Divorce, Starting Over and Finding Fulfillment
Laurie Wright, also known as Not Your Average Grandma, is a certified Master NeuroCoach whose mission is to help passionless empty nesters who feel unfulfilled now that their kids are gone, discover who they really are, and in so doing, find out what brings them joy and drives them with deeper purpose so they can live out the rest of their life doing what they are meant to do.
Laurie has a corporate background in the software tech industry, with her longest stint at AOL where she spent 13 years climbing the corporate ladder. Although most would consider her rise from technical writer to Vice President in just 7 years to be the pinnacle of success, it left her empty and unfulfilled. After experiencing a couple of on-the-job panic attacks, she knew something was wrong and that she needed to change her life.
Now, after lots of research and training on this topic, she understands that her rise to the top took her further away from her soul’s purpose - the work that lights her up, brings her great joy, and that she now believes she was sent here to do. And because she believes everyone deserves to live from this lit up place, she’s dedicated her life to teaching people how to find that spark.
With her signature program, The Second Half S.P.A.R.K. School, Laurie teaches women how to discover their lost spark and build a “purpose plan” so that they will never get to the end of their life thinking “What if?” She also has a podcast called “Not Your Average Lives” where she highlights inspirational stories of midlife transformation.
