Laura Gisborne is an internationally recognized speaker and business expert who founded Limitless Women. She’s the author of “Stop the Spinning—Move from Surviving to Thriving,” and has appeared on CBS, ABC and, “The List Show.”
Do you consider yourself to be a grateful person?
As a child of trauma, Laura lived in a persistent state of fear and trepidation, which impacted her adult relationships, affected the way she parented her kids, and ultimately … served as an epicenter for her personal evolution.
Hear what Laura’s boss said to her at 21 that completely changed her trajectory from focusing on being good enough for others to recognizing her gifts and being good enough for herself. You’ll learn about other “spiritual mamas” who’ve shown up to guide Laura along her path, and discover how she learned to embody “granular gratitude.”
Laura shares why she decided to leave a kind, loving marriage with her first husband, and opens up about the way their divorce was a wake up call that gave her a deeper understanding of what she values, and catalyzed what is now 30 years of crafting the next season of her life around what matters most to her.
You’ll also hear about another huge GFR Moment when Laura drove head on into traffic after falling asleep at the wheel, and how that accident—and her journey to understand what caused it—facilitated a new level of growth and gratitude. Plus, Laura explains what it means to live a “led life,” and reveals how she learned to walk in faith.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
