48: How to Stand Out and Get Hired with Laura Couvillion

How to Stand Out and Get Hired

Have you ever felt like you don’t fit in with the stay-at-home mom crowd? Do you want to know how to stand out and get hired?

Today we are joined by an honorary free mama Laura Couvillon, and she gets you. 

In this episode, she is sharing her journey from event planner to stay-at-home mom to running an online business. She’s also getting real and raw about not fitting in, mommy wine culture, how to stand out, and embracing where you are at. 

Laura describes herself as a professional mullet: business in the front, party in the back. She gets stuff done, and she loves to have FUN along the way!

She spent 11 years in the corporate world working her way up the ladder where she finally landed as a show director. She planned and managed conferences and trade shows with a team of 5 all over North America. Next came marriage and three kids in a baby carriage, so she ditched corporate for a more pick-my-kids-up-from-school type of career. Her background led to an amazing career as an Integrator. Through her work, she found a need and co-founded IntegrateUp with ToriAnn Perkey to help digital entrepreneurs hire their dream team. Today, she is passionate about matching entrepreneurs and service providers to create successful teams that fuel small business growth!

In Today’s Episode We Discuss: 

  • Feeling like you don’t fit in with other stay-at-home moms 
  • Getting to define what your life looks like 
  • How to give 100% to business and being a mom
  • How to stand out (in a good way)
  • Why you don’t have to do everything 
  • The danger of mommy wine culture 
  • Choosing collaboration over competition
  • Why cultural fit is so important 

If you need someone to relate to, you’re looking to grow or join a team or you just want to know how to stand out, this episode with Laura holds such great advice and a refreshing perspective!
