Laura Best is a keynote speaker, bestselling author and the founder of Passion Collective, a global community that helps people rediscover their passion in work and life. Originally from England, Laura spent many years building a successful marketing career in the UK and the Twin Cities. She started Passion Collective in 2014 to connect professional women with real conversations about passion, identity, and fulfillment at a time when many women didn’t feel they had the permission to support each other or talk openly about their paths. It’s now a community for all, regardless of gender or background! Laura lives in Minneapolis, MN with her family and is passionate about community, baking (and eating) layer cakes, watching (and attempting to play) tennis, genealogy and all types of history. Her first book, “Born to Buzz. How to Spark Your Passions (Without Quitting It All)” was an instant bestseller and #1 release on Amazon.
