Since 2022, she’s taken hundreds of conversations with people experiencing some of the most difficult moments of their lives, and she explains why the work has become so important to her.</p><p><br></p><p>If you haven’t already, do go back and listen to part one. And if you want to see Laura on stage, she stars alongside Michelle Dockery in <em>Bloodsport: After Helen of Troy</em>, opening at Stratford East on September 3rd and running until October 10th.
