In this powerful and deeply inspiring episode of the Ladies Who Leap podcast, host Lisa Andria sits down with Laura Aiello, founder of LAYLO Wellness, to explore what it truly means to leap—boldly, bravely, and with purpose. With over 30 years in the wellness industry, Laura is a trailblazer in fitness, corporate wellness, and transformational retreats for high-achieving women. But before she built her thriving wellness empire, Laura had to walk away from everything she knew—her religion, her marriage, and her community.
Laura opens up about her harrowing yet empowering journey of leaving a controlling relationship and an insular religious upbringing to create a new life on her own terms. With no college degree and limited career prospects, she leaned on her passion for fitness and a deep drive for reinvention to chart an entirely new path. Her story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, and her leap at 40 proves it’s never too late to rewrite your story.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone feeling trapped by expectations, navigating major life transitions, or seeking the courage to start over. Laura’s wisdom on integrating physical, mental, and social wellness into our demanding lives is both practical and powerful—and her message of hope will resonate deeply with women at every stage of their journey. Tune in to hear how one woman turned pain into purpose, and how you can too.
