She writes and speaks for life transformation.
Laurie has been teaching the Bible and counseling women for over 30 years. She began writing, teaching, and publishing her own curriculum in 2003 when the women of her church asked her to disciple them. Thistlebend Ministries was established officially as a 501(c)3 in 2007.

Laurie loves to spend time with her family, hike in the mountains, walk on the beach, and sit with Kevin on their front screened porch.
