About us
We first crossed paths years ago through Macra, but it was during the unique and challenging time of COVID—while we were both pregnant—that our friendship truly blossomed. From those heartfelt conversations and shared experiences, we discovered a deep connection rooted in our mutual love for beauty, holistic living, Reiki, positivity, and of course… talking!
In 2024, Laura felt the pull to start a podcast. But something didn’t feel quite complete—until she reached out to Chloe. That simple message turned into something special, and Chasing Happiness was born.
Join us as we dive into meaningful conversations, explore the journey of self-discovery, and chase the happiness we all deserve.
Our story
Meet Laura!
With over 18 years of experience working with the public, my journey has been one of passion, growth, and a deep desire to help others. After studying Early Childhood Care and Education, I set off on an adventure to Australia and New Zealand, where I had the chance to gain a wide range of experience—from working in childcare to managing a busy bar, restaurant, and hotel in New Zealand.
When I returned home, I briefly went back to childcare, but I soon followed my heart and stepped into the world of beauty and holistic wellness. It felt like the right path, and I was honored to be named Beauty Therapist of the Year while in college. I began my holistic journey at the luxurious 5-star Fota Island Resort Spa, and later worked in a vibrant salon—right up until the pandemic brought everything to a halt.
During that pause, life gave me the gift of a new chapter: I got married, started a family, and found our forever home. Even as I embraced motherhood, my passion for personal and professional development remained strong. In 2024, I began training in Reiki and Life Coaching—bringing together my love for holistic healing and a lifestyle that lets me be present for both my clients and my two beautiful boys.
Everything I do is rooted in empathy, warmth, and real-life experience. My goal is always to help others feel their best—inside and out.
Meet Chloe!
From a young age, I had a passion for hair, beauty, and helping others feel their best. I began my journey studying Hair and Beauty straight from school. At 21, I stepped away from work to embrace full-time motherhood, a role that brought me immense joy and purpose.
During the pandemic, life shifted again—I was pregnant with my second child and planning my wedding. Though that chapter didn’t go as planned, it led me to a new path. I began co-parenting and navigating the process of separation, which became a powerful time of personal growth and reflection.
Taking time to heal and rediscover myself, I returned to training—deepening my skills in beauty and starting my journey in Reiki healing. Now, I'm excited to create a balanced life where I can be both a devoted mom to my boys and follow my passion in the beauty and holistic wellness world
