Dina and Laura spend time analyzing the intersections of nutrition and mental health while also encouraging listeners to move from judgment to curiosity when it comes to past behaviors and overcoming barriers.


Laura Sgro, LCSW is a licensed psychotherapist with a private practice in Los Angeles, California. She specializes in working with folks who are struggling with anxiety, attachment trauma, relational problems, and identity issues. Many of Laura's clients are recovering people-pleasers or perfectionists looking to develop healthier relationships with themselves and others.


In addition to clinical work, Laura is a public speaker, educator, and content creator with a mission to hear people's stories and create inclusive, compassionate spaces for folks to heal. Outside of work, Laura enjoys reading fantasy novels, trying new restaurants in LA, going hiking, and rocking out at karaoke.
