The L4 Project

We never know how many people are truly reading these posts. We’ll never know how many people have been touched by Laura’s story and messages. We’ll never be able to understand the impact she had on the world during her brief time on earth. Nor will we ever comprehend the weight of losing her across the spaces she spent her time and the people she met along the way. The ripples that her life and death have sent into the universe are still felt today.

We DO know that Laura wanted this reminder shared on the 18th of the month — your health day, your self breast exam day. And because of this….We DO know that many of you have reported catching cancer early enough to be treated. We DO know of friends, family and strangers who have implemented small habits and routines, to better their wellness. We DO know that early detection saves lives. We DO know that 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed in your lifetime. We DO know that advocacy works. We DO know that cancer diagnoses are happening younger and younger. We DO know that your health and life, matter.

If this is your first time seeing a post or you’ve been following for years, check your breasts today. Make a note to call the doctor, and then follow through. Ask the hard questions. Whatever you’ve been putting off when it comes to your health, it’s time. If you needed a sign, here it is 💫

We are always here if you need help getting started. Please reach out.
Happy Laura Day 💕

Happy Heavenly Birthday to you, Laura 🕊️ 🎈We love you and celebrate you, today and forevermore 🤍

New year. New you? Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe you’re ready for a fresh start, new goals, ideas and the capacity to begin again. Maybe you’re just grateful you survived 2025. Maybe you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be and that’s enough. Maybe the new year doesn’t feel new at all. Perhaps you feel a little lost. Each step carrying weight you never expected or asked for.

No matter where you’re at as the calendar continues to march forward, we want to validate and encourage you in that space. We’re simply here to remind you of your inherent value. Your existence matters to all of us and sets in motion so many ripples on earth that are only here because you are.

Today is the 18th and Laura Day — it’s time for your self breast exam. 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer. Early detection saves lives. If this habit has found a rhythm in your life, we are so glad and know that Laura’s message will continue to change lives. Tell someone you love about Laura Day!

I was listening to a podcast yesterday. The grieving person was describing how they learned to live with their grief and not let the weight of the sadness stop them from truly living. The person said this: “You just have to live with the truth. And the truth is, her life is what identified her, not her death.”

This page is dedicated to Laura’s mission of sharing her knowledge, championing self advocacy, reminding everyone to schedule their mammogram and do a self breast exam once a month. But there was so much more to Laura…
•••
Laura was vibrant. Everything she did and said was with a vibrant, passionate spirit. She loved deeply, thought deeply, cared deeply, laughed deeply (that snort), prayed deeply and left a little sparkle everywhere she went. These things just scratch the surface of the person she was and the impact she made. A mother, wife, daughter, friend, cousin, granddaughter, Aunt Godmother, supporter of so many things. Smart, crass, funny, compassionate, energetic, meticulous, ridiculous, honest…the list goes on.

Thank you for giving us this space to share who Laura was and always will be. We hope you have found helpful reminders and moments of inspiration to be the healthiest version of yourself.
•••
Wishing you a vibrant and passionate 2026.
Happy Laura Day 💕
