  • Speaking Sample:

Laurie Hardie is a Seattle Radio personality, an author, speaker, coach and podcaster.  She loves to help women leave their legacy by telling their stories, whether privately or broadcasting to the world.

She was a single mom of three and is now Grandma LaLa to 6!

She’s passionate about helping people speak in a way that truly connects. During the Pandemic, she had a powerful realization—her background in broadcasting and her degree in social services came together as she noticed a troubling trend: podcasters and Zoom leaders thought they were being inclusive, but their communication style was unintentionally isolating for many listeners. Now, she helps voices become more inviting, intentional, and impactful.

She incorporates 35 plus years in broadcasting into her 7-Day Podcast Pro program which was recently launched.
