About Seeking Serenity and Harmony
Creating a Life with Less Judgment, More Peace, One Step at a Time. Gentle guidance for living with more peace, purpose, and balance.
Welcome. I’m so glad you’re here.
Seeking Serenity and Harmony was created from a simple but deeply held belief: life can be gentler, more meaningful, and more balanced, even in the midst of struggle.
I started this blog and platform to share the lessons I’ve learned through lived experience, education, and personal growth, with the hope that they can make the journey a little less painful and a little more hopeful for others. This space is for anyone seeking calm in chaos, clarity in uncertainty, and encouragement along the way.
Here you’ll find reflections and practical insights about:
Living with chronic illness
Mental health and emotional well-being
Homemaking and homesteading
Parenting and family life
Simple, natural, and mindful living

My goal is to offer content that is educational, uplifting, inspiring, and healing without judgment and without shame.
My Story
Hello, my name is Laurie.
I am a wife, a homemaker, and a homesteader. As a child, my biggest dream was to become a
wife and a mother — and today I am blessed to be a mom to six and a Grammie to three.
Family means everything to me, and simplifying life so we can spend more meaningful time together is a core value in my home.
I have always loved books and learning. At the age of 52, I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts with minors in Early Children’s Services and Psychology. I continue to seek knowledge that helps me better understand people, healing, and personal growth.
I also have a passion for natural living and have been using essential oils since 2014. One of my ongoing goals is to continue learning about herbs, natural remedies,
and gentle ways to support wellness.
Despite current vision challenges and health struggles, I remain committed to learning, growing, and creating a life rooted in purpose. I dream of spending more time on photography, scrapbooking, and creative projects, and I’m always looking for ways to become more organized, productive, and intentional with my time.
Seeking serenity and harmony isn’t just a name it’s a daily practice.
