A former marketing leader for global brands, Laura launched Passion Collective in 2014 and has since reached thousands through events, talks, and microgrants awarded to Passion Seekers in three continents. Her debut book, Born to Buzz (2025), introduces 12 transformational “Sparks” to help readers rediscover their passion without leaving their responsibilities behind. Known for her honesty, humour, and practical insight, Laura inspires people to build more meaningful, “passion-first” lives—right where they are.

In her newest motivational self-help book, Laura Best, keynote speaker and founder of Passion Collective, shows us how to put passion back at the center of our lives.

Too often, as we juggle careers, family, and unexpected challenges, what lights us up gets pushed aside. The result is that nagging feeling that something’s missing.

This is not a book about quitting your job or starting over. Instead, it’s a guide to weaving what you love into your everyday rhythm. Through relatable stories, science-backed insights, and practical exercises, Laura equips you to:

  • Reignite or discover your passions, at work or at play
  • Balance what you love with the demands of modern life
  • Boost confidence, self-belief, and motivation
  • Use journaling as a tool for growth
  • Positively impact those around you by leading with passion
