Laurie's life journey is a testament to unwavering faith, entrepreneurial spirit, and the transformative power of resilience. Rooted in a lifelong foundation of Christian values, instilled from her upbringing and a pivotal move from Texas to Middle Tennessee in 1986, Laurie embarked on a path marked by both professional achievement and personal devotion.
In 1993, driven by a profound desire to nurture her growing family, Laurie made a courageous decision to transition from a decade-long, successful career as an accountant at a Fortune 500 company. This pivotal moment, coinciding with her husband's aspiration to pursue his calling in law enforcement, became a catalyst for a life dedicated to purpose and service. Through prayerful consideration, they embraced both paths, demonstrating a commitment to faith-led action.
God has uniquely privileged Laurie to serve Him in numerous capacities over the past few decades. Her entrepreneurial journey began with the inception of her web & graphics, branding, marketing, and design company. Recognizing her talents as gifts to be shared, she pledged to utilize her skills for divine purpose. This commitment manifested in the creation of over a thousand websites, marketing materials, training platforms, and courses for pastors, churches, evangelists, missionaries, colleges, and a diverse range of business clients. Her expertise extended to comprehensive rebranding initiatives, empowering organizations to articulate their vision with clarity and impact.
Beyond her business acumen, Laurie is a prolific author, having penned the best-selling books "Keep Those Clients" and "We All Have Choices," and co-founded the transformative "Gratitude Girls - 100 Day Gratitude Journal Challenge." She has also contributed her insights to three additional publications. As a sought-after motivational speaker and corporate sales trainer, Laurie inspires audiences with her authentic voice and empowering message, often called upon for special speaking engagements around the world. Her dedication to education is further evidenced by her five years of teaching at her children's Christian school and her subsequent decision to homeschool them, allowing her to balance her growing speaking career with her commitment to family.
Her mission to empower women to embrace their God-given potential has taken her across the globe, where she shares her wisdom and encouragement with diverse audiences. Laurie's life, however, has not been without profound challenges. In 2013, she experienced the devastating loss of her children's father in a tragic accident, navigating the complexities of grief while raising her four children, then aged 25, 18, 16, and 12.
Believing in God's guidance for her life, Laurie remarried in April 2020 to Kevin Radecki, following their meeting in December 2019. Laurie prayed for exactly what she wanted in a husband and God showed Himself strong in giving her more than she asked in a God-fearing and God-loving husband.
Laurie's unique experiences over the past few decades provide special insight and encouragement for those who take her courses. Her story is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the transformative power of faith, and the profound impact of living a life dedicated to purpose and service. Her journey inspires others to embrace their own unique paths, to overcome adversity with grace, and to live with unwavering gratitude and purpose.

One of the biggest disappointments in business is losing a client, and even worse, losing the client to a competitor! In most cases, when we lose a client, it’s because we assumed that we had a great relationship with them.
“Assuming is the root of all disappointments.” – Rogienel Reyes
Assuming your client relationships are great can undoubtedly kill the very relationship you thought was great! Avoid assuming by asking your clients how you can do better, if they like working with you, and how you can help them grow their business.
The answers you get will give you a better idea of the areas in your business and client relations that you could improve on. Don’t assume! Use these tips to take the guesswork out and improve on your customer relationships:
How often do you serve, celebrate, and appreciate your clients? There is no time like the present! Now is a great time to stop assuming and start showing clients that you sincerely appreciate serving them and your relationship with them!
I appreciate you,
Laurie

REFLECTING
Today would have been my kids dad, my late husband and my 28th anniversary….the ‘dates’ get a little easier each year, but you still remember…..I know many widows don’t date or allow someone else in their life for happiness thinking they can’t still reflect….you can, and especially if you are lucky enough to attract a wonderful man like I did. 💖
It took me 7 years to date, and then when God told me I would marry again, for the longest time, I thought, how could I? My heart already had it’s love….I think that is where many widows get stuck also…..but God gently reminded me, when I was praying n talking to him, that same, I had my 1st daughter, I was SO in love, when I became pregnant w my 2nd, and same, I couldn’t imagine how I could love another so much, but God just opens your heart to love another, so in that same way, when God was ready for me to, He allowed my heart to open even more to where I love this man completely- and I am SO lucky to have him in my life. 💖
