Alignment with Laura Lorta & Ashley Durden of BellaValiente
Manage episode 322201765 series 3253070
Today, I’m joined by Laura Lorta and Ashley Durden of BellaValiente, a mentorship community for women who want to achieve their goals through motivation, support and accountability. Laura and Ashley offer weekly email check-ins, bi-weekly self-development chats and monthly meetings for members. There’s also a catalog of snackable self-help videos and recordings of previous meetings so that members can dig into whatever topic interests them.
In our conversation, we cover everything from their current self-care routines to how they’ve grown as entrepreneurs through their latest venture. They share how their friendship has blossomed since they started BellaValiente and the benefits of collaborating rather than being a solopreneur.
We also talk about the power of affirmations, which have been a consistent part of both of their self-care practices. We discuss how to stay flexible and curious about your routine while staying rooted in what brings you joy no matter which season of life you’re in.
Listen in to hear more of our conversation about achieving balance and alignment in business and beyond.

- Ashley and Laura’s journey from sorority sisters to co-owners of BellaValiente
