Hey there, Escape Artists! Welcome to the very first episode of Escape Artist Podcast. I'm your host, Laura Demetrious, and I am beyond thrilled to kick off this journey with you all. In this episode, I share a bit about my background as a digital marketer with over 15 years of experience, working for various entrepreneurs and businesses. I've always been a doer, starting with teaching dance at a young age to support my passion for dancing.
I open up about how my self-worth was deeply tied to my job, and how losing a job I loved due to a company restructure was a turning point for me. It made me realize that I didn't have to keep proving myself to others and that I had the courage and skills to launch my own business. This realization led me to start Escape Artist Podcast, a platform where I aim to inspire and motivate listeners to pursue their passions and break free from the traditional nine-to-five mindset.
Throughout the episode, I explore the importance of self-worth beyond work and shared my goals for the podcast. I want listeners to feel encouraged, inspired, and excited about the possibilities of creating a life they love.
Listeners can expect to hear from successful entrepreneurs, musicians, artists, and dreamers who have taken the leap to follow their passions. I hope that their stories will inspire others to do the same and realize that they, too, can achieve their dreams.

Thank you for your support, and I can't wait to share more inspiring stories and insights with you in the episodes to come. Stay tuned for next week's episode, and until then, keep dreaming, keep believing, and keep breaking free. Thank you, and see you next time on Escape Artist Podcast!
