having a back ground in nursing and midwifery caring for her partner Sam (featured in episode 1) comes easy but throw a company and some young children things do get tricky and sometimes frustrating, Lauren highlights how even when things are hard she will always take the extra weight of the work load to make life easier for her husband.
