Besides her family, getting to know her clients on a personal level and helping them to feel like the very best and most confident version of themselves is what Lora is most passionate about. Lora is married with two adorable and feisty sons, one 7-year-old furry baby and one 2-year-old, who was born the day the pandemic began. It's been a whirlwind the last two years, but her business is more successful than ever, and her family is what motivates her every single day.

My mother has always been a huge role model and inspiration to me for how to be a hands on mom, how to love unconditionally, how to always be interested in your child’s passions while still making time for your own passions, and how to juggle it all with a positive attitude! My husband truly makes it all possible and has been a cheer leader (and the best assistant ever) through it all. There is no way I could be where I am today without his amazingness as a father and supporter of my dreams. I truly believe that having a strong support system is the most important factor in having a successful career and what ultimately makes your home a cohesive happy loving place to be. I'm extremely lucky to have had support since day one from those closest to me for this crazy dream job I turned into a reality.
Being a Power Mom, it's the little things and big things all wrapped into one. Making it work for your family through thick and thin. Being there as support, comfort, and a loving home above all else. Leading by example, working hard and playing hard. The list of amazing power moms in my eyes is legit never ending. I could go on for days just thinking about all of the women in my life who inspire me in different ways. With my career, I'm lucky to be surrounded by bad ass, hardworking women living out their dream and raising their beautiful family all at the same time. Hard work, dreams, and families come in all different "shapes and sizes" and so does being a "Power Mom" in my eyes.
