    Facial Fitness: The Natural Alternative to Botox & Filler with Carelle Rose

    Episode 7, Season 3: Facial Fitness, A Botox Alternative & Home Ed Life with Carelle Rose This week, I'm joined by the captivating Carelle Rose - facial fitness instructor, conscious parent, and founder of Firefly Formula. Carelle promotes a holistic, empowering alternative to botox and filler, helping women strengthen and care for their faces from the inside out. But this conversation goes so much deeper than skincare. Carelle has recently taken the leap into home educating, and she shares her experience of finding her feet with home ed whilst running a small business - the juggly, beautiful reality of it all. With wellness, empowerment and connection at the heart of everything she does, Carelle has a real passion for raising the next generation of women who don't automatically succumb to the pressures of "looking a certain way." Together, we explore: 👉🏻 What facial fitness actually is - and why it's such a brilliant, holistic alternative to botox and filler  👉🏻 The importance of touching our faces and an intro to face taping 👉🏻 Self-esteem, the fear of ageing, and rewriting the narrative around how women "should" look 👉🏻 Alter-egos - how to embody the version of yourself you aspire to be 👉🏻 The interesting link between facial fitness and posture 👉🏻 Home education - the misconceptions, the reality, and why Carelle made the leap 👉🏻 How children are expected to be good at everything - and what we can unlearn around that Carelle is a fellow conscious parent and I genuinely could have spoken to her all day long! It's one of those episodes that leaves you thinking differently about your face, how you hold yourself, and the way you're raising your children.

    Hypnosis for Releasing Intrusive Thoughts: For Anxious Mums

    Episode 6, Season 3: Releasing Intrusive Thoughts – Hypnosis for Anxious & Overwhelmed Mums If intrusive or unpleasant thoughts have been hijacking your mood, your energy, or your peace of mind - this is for you. This guided hypnosis was originally created for a real-life client who no longer struggles with intrusive thoughts. It’s designed to help you change your relationship with difficult inner dialogue, so you no longer feel the need to fight, suppress, or engage with it. In this session, I gently guide your subconscious into a deeply calming state where you’ll learn how to: Detach from intrusive thoughts without fear or resistanceStop giving anxious thoughts power or meaningRegulate your nervous system and return to the present momentBuild emotional safety, calm and self-trustMany of the mums I work with experience recurring thoughts linked to anxiety, trauma, criticism, or past experiences. When these thoughts come from within, they can feel more intense and disruptive - but they don’t have to control your day. This hypnosis uses a metaphor to help your subconscious learn a new response to intrusive thinking - one rooted in acceptance and ease. 🎧 For best results, listen in a quiet, comfortable space where you won’t be disturbed. Listen daily for 21-30 days.  ✨ Work With Me This session was created for a private client. If you’d like your own tailored hypnotherapy or coaching support, you’re invited to get in touch...

    The Best Smartphone Alternative for Kids: Screen-Free Tech with KARRI Founder Pete Clifford

    Episode 5, Season 3: Screen-Free Tech for Kids - Rethinking Smartphones with KARRI Founder Pete Clifford What if parents could stay connected to their kids, give them the independence they crave and know they're safe - without a smartphone? In this episode, I’m joined by Pete Clifford, British dad, Berlin-based founder, and the mind behind KARRI - a screen-free voice messaging device designed specifically for children. What began as a personal parenting dilemma grew into a mission-led tech startup. Founded in 2023, KARRI is reimagining how families introduce technology, prioritising connection, safety and childhood over distraction and dopamine. The idea has already gained serious momentum, raising €2.1 million in pre-seed funding and sparking important conversations about kids, tech and digital wellbeing. Together, we explore Pete’s journey from frustrated parent to founder - and what conscious, child-centred technology can look like in a world that often moves far too fast for developing brains. In this episode, we discuss: 👉🏻 How Pete came up with the idea for KARRI and the real parenting problem he was trying to solve 👉🏻 Using KARRI as a “starter step” before a smartphone - supporting independence without overwhelm 👉🏻 Why KARRI works so well for separated co-parents, sleepovers, family members from afar and everyday logistics 👉🏻 How parents are learning in real time - navigating a digital world that wasn’t designed with children’s wellbeing in mind 👉🏻 Pete’s honest experience of introducing WhatsApp, and what one difficult incident taught him about online exposure This is an insightful conversation for any parent questioning when - or if - a smartphone is right for their child, and what healthier alternatives might look like.

    Episode 4, Season 3: No Crap Parties - Gifting Culture and Plastic Consumption with Charlotte Mason-Curl Kids’ parties are meant to be fun… so why do so many of us feel guilty, awkward, out of pocket and drowning in plastic afterwards? In this episode, I’m joined by Charlotte Mason-Curl, founder of No Crap Parties and the Kids Party Pact - a movement helping parents ditch the waste, pressure and consumerism that has quietly crept into children’s parties and gifting culture. Charlotte shares how she realised most parents hate plastic-filled party bags and gift pressure, and how she’s now using her marketing skills for the greater good - helping families make parties more affordable, more sustainable and far less stressful. Together, we explore: 🎈 What’s gone wrong with kids’ gifting culture From post-Christmas overwhelm to financial strain, clutter, social anxiety and the subtle ways consumerism shapes our children’s values. 🎁 How to do kids’ parties differently Charlotte walks us through the Kids Party Pact, including: Clear gift guidanceAlternatives to party bagsNormalising second-hand and conscious gifting Plus lots of practical, doable ideas that won’t make you “that parent”.🧠 How to get others on board Behavioural-science-backed tips for navigating resistance without offending (especially grandparents 🙈), plus smart ways to set boundaries and share wish lists that actually work. This conversation is empowering, realistic and deeply relieving if you’ve ever thought “surely it doesn’t have to be like this?” If you’re raising children and want to reduce waste, pressure and over-spending - without sucking the joy out of celebrations - this episode is a must-listen.

    The 3 Most Powerful Unlearnings for Mothers (Lessons from the Pod in 2025)

    Episode 3, Season 3: The 3 Most Powerful Unlearnings for Mothers (Lessons from the Pod in 2025) Welcome to a very special episode of Unlearning with Laura. As the podcast turns one, I wanted to pause and reflect. Over the past year, I’ve had the privilege of holding space for so many powerful conversations with expert guests, and certain themes have come up again and again. In this solo episode, I’m sharing three of the most powerful “unlearnings” for mothers that have emerged from the podcast in 2025 - lessons that invite awareness, compassion and a deeper understanding of how much our subconscious, nervous system and conditioning shape our parenting and our lives. In this episode, we explore: ✨ Why school avoidance is not “bad behaviour” What I learned from my conversation with Jodie Jones about school anxiety, nervous system dysregulation, and why neurodivergent children struggle in rigid, outdated education systems. ✨ How self-sabotage runs beneath the surface Insights from my episode with Becky Stanton on procrastination, perfectionism, self-worth and why your subconscious and energetics are always running the show - whether you’re parenting, building a business, or both. ✨ Raising children in a tech-heavy world Reflections from my conversation with Jade Gooding on values-led living and why the conversation around tweens, teens and smartphones has never been more urgent - including current UK discussions around social media bans for under-16s. 🎁 Podcast Birthday Giveaway At the end of this episode, I’m announcing a very special giveaway to celebrate one year of Unlearning with Laura - including a Power Hour HypnoCoaching session, my Bedtime Bliss bundle, and my Morning Mastery Toolkit. Make sure you listen right to the end to find out how to enter. FYI - these science backed bundles were created with so much love and have helped numerous mums in getting their kids to settle with ease and to enjoy their mornings again! 🤍 New Brand Partnership This episode also marks the beginning of a new brand partnership with KARRI - a screen-free voice messaging device for children. If you’re navigating the smartphone conversation with your child, keep an ear out for more details (and a listener discount coming soon).

    Understanding & Releasing Resentment: for Under-Appreciated Mums

    Episode 2, Season 3: The Epidemic that is Motherhood Resentment Resentment in motherhood doesn’t appear overnight - it builds quietly, day after day, as the mental load piles up and your needs slip further down the list. In this solo episode, I’m exploring the very real, very common resentment so many mums feel toward their partners, co-parents, workplaces, or even the systems around them - and why it can feel like a slow erosion of feeling seen, valued and supported. If you’ve ever thought “my life has changed, but theirs hasn’t”, or felt like you’re carrying everything while silently seething… this one is for you. In this episode, we explore how to: 🌿 Understand where resentment really comes from 🧠 Make sense of the invisible mental load and subconscious roles mums carry 💬 Shift out of silent frustration and passive-aggressive patterns 🧘‍♀️ Reconnect with yourself when exhaustion, overwhelm and burnout are creeping in 💛 Begin releasing resentment without guilt - and without blowing everything up (check my previous hypnosis episode for this - my most popular episode of this podcast so far!) This episode is an invitation to stop minimising your experience, stop carrying it all alone, and start honouring your needs again - because resentment isn’t a personal failure, it’s a signal.
