Laura Howe is your favourite international jet-setting divorcée!
Originally from the US, Laura moved to Lausanne, Switzerland, as soon as the ink on her dissolution of marriage decree was finalized. From there, she spent the next few years moving around the world–from Switzerland to Tokyo, Japan, and back to Switzerland, all with her cat, Minnie.
As the pandemic hit, Laura quit her high-powered job to finally address “what happened” during her marriage and how to build the life she always wanted.
Laura is the founder of Dispatched Divorcée, a global community to help women build, define, and thrive in their lives after divorce by providing the resources she wished she had when she went through it. She is fiercely motivated to make sure that no woman feels as lonely and lost as she did.
Here we talk all about divorce, advice if you're thinking of leaving a relationship, cocktails and embracing the Hot Mess phase!
In this conversation, Laura mentions the following books:
Anatomy of Love - Helen Fisher
