On the Come Up with Libby and Riley
Underrated Occupations with Lauren Fiorletta
Future occupational therapist and artist Lauren Fiorletta found a way to combine her left brain and right brain in her careers. Instead of pursuing art as a full time job, she is currently studying occupational therapy to fulfill her desire to help children with their daily functionality. At the same time, she works as a live painter and artist to feed into her passion for creation. Lauren explains the reasoning behind and benefits of occupational therapy, shares stories from her artist hustle, and advises listeners on how to find balance in their lives.
