Laura Living Kinda Dangerously

Hi! I’m Laura, and I am a teacher and mom in Charleston, South Carolina. If you know me well, you are aware that I am profoundly anxious, which, unfortunately, has been to the detriment of my parenting and relationships. I am the girl who when asked “What’s the worst that could happen?” I have a well-thought-out list of possible catastrophic scenarios.

I have reached the point in my life where I can no longer let anxiety run the Laura show, so thus begins a year long experiment. I have made a list of the things—most that I have never actually done before—that I know scare me, and my plan is to do, document, and analyze as many as possible. This blog and its readers will hold me accountable so that I can prove to my daughter and mainly to myself that I can do hard things and start living. What’s the worst that could happen?

Follow along, folks! I will need the encouragement.
