My guest today is Laura Pensiero, actor, compassionate teacher, dedicated healer and business owner. Laura incorporates Reiki and Breathwork in private healing sessions as well as develops curriculum for workshops and long-term courses. I was lucky enough to experience, firsthand one of Laura’s Breathwork workshops and immediately invited her to be my podcast guest.

After graduating from NYU’s Tish School for Acting, Laura moved out to LA to pursue her dream to be an actress. Laura looks back on her 7 years in LA, admitting that she didn’t have the tools at that time to live a healthy life while pursuing her acting career.  She acknowledges that she lost her way, gave up on her passion until she returned to NYC and had her first Reiki session. In one profound session, she felt her cells reorganize themselves and actually see herself again! Reiki awakened her path of healing and inspired her to create her new business “Reiki for Actors”. She also got certified in an emotional release modality called Breathwork as well as certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, determined to cleanse and heal her body, mind and spirit.

Laura has been dating my nephew Matt Carr, Jr. and within a week of recording this conversation, Matt proposed to her, so I am delighted to announce that Laura will be part of my family!! I couldn’t be happier for these two warm, loving humans!!

You can experience Laura’s bright energy and loving guidance at her next workshops offered at Maha Rose Healing Center and Heal Haus, both in Brooklyn. Check out the links below for details. Enjoy the podcast!
