Laura Joyce Davis, Creator and Host of the Podcast Shelter in Place

<p>Today, I’m joined by&nbsp;Laura Joyce Davis, the creator and host of the award-winning podcast <a href="https://shelterinplacepodcast.org/episodes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Shelter in Place</a>. What started as a creative outlet to cope with the stay-at-home order of March 2020 has now turned into almost 200 episodes of narrative nonfiction storytelling about reimagining life through creativity and community. Laura and her husband have since expanded into the podcast education space with the launch of Kasama Collective, an intensive podcast training program for female and non-binary audio storytellers, as well as a self-paced online course. We discuss navigating motherhood and creative ambitions, confronting the role of perfectionism in her life, and what inspires her to continue showing up authentically online. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Topics Covered:</strong></p><p>●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;How Laura started and scaled Shelter in Place and Kasama Collective</p><p>●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Balance your needs as a creative person with your parental duties </p><p>●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Why perfectionism isn’t always a bad thing </p><p>●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Creating community and fulfilling the desire for connection via podcasting </p><p>●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Being recognized at the International Women's Podcast Awards</p><br><p><strong>Guest Info:</strong></p><p>●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://shelterinplacepodcast.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Shelter in Place Website</a> </p><p>●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://shelterinplacepodcast.org/kasama-collective-podcast-training" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kasama Collective Podcast Training </a>&nbsp;</p><p>●&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://shelterinplacepodcast.org/kasama-labs-online-course" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kasama Labs Online Course</a> </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Featured Podcast:</strong></p><p>●&nbsp;&nbsp;
