Through sobriety, Laura has found infinite happiness and gratitude, embracing the importance of living in the moment. Her story is a testament to the strength and resilience required to overcome addiction and rebuild one's life. Tune in to hear Laura's candid and inspiring journey on The Drunkalogues.
