Silent Seasons the Audiobook is Here!

I am so happy and excited to share that Silent Seasons: Chasing Sustainability through the Law (narrated by me!) is now available as an audiobook on Audible/Amazon and iTunes! It’s taken a lot of time, work, and patience to get to this point. I am so proud of myself and the Silent Seasons Author Community for supporting me through this journey.

It was a fun and somewhat daunting challenge to narrate the book! I’ve had a lot of practice speaking with the podcast and my jobs, but narrating an audiobook was more of a “performance” where I had to include as much emotion as possible. I learned how our voice uses our entire body as an instrument. While recording, I stayed hydrated, did many voice exercises, and warmed up with a special meditation from Rainbow Spirit Healing before each session.

Here is an audiobook review from Ashley Lorinsky, Owner of Horse Chit Chat LLC, Horse Behaviorist, and Environmental Consultant:

Laura’s voice gives depth and heart as she tells her story of navigating the environmental realm through law. As she gently paces her story, she expertly brings to life complicated environmental law issues while breaking them up with personal stories. Her story perfectly shows how many of our sustainability practices and laws have not done what they were intended to do and she uses her voice to express ways in which we can do better and heal the earth and ourselves. Laura is not silent, but a powerful and courageous person to share her personal ups and downs in trying to help heal our earth.
