Laura Sabin Cabanillas
 

Bio:

Her boundless energy and contagious enthusiasm will be the first thing to captivate you, but genuine passion will be the lasting impression, long after she steps off the platform. Laura Sabin Cabanillas speaks from her heart, out of her own personal brokenness, bringing hope to a generation of people who have fallen into a pit of performance. A self-proclaimed "recovering people pleaser", Laura often weaves this common theme into many of her messages; "Don't be afraid to be exactly who God created you to be; to try to be anyone else will only make your miserable!" While Laura enjoys speaking to men, women, and youth, her deepest desire is to equip and encourage women to pursue their full potential. She'll make you think, make you laugh and make you stop and take notice of the empowering grace that God wants to give you in your daily life. Through her own passion, humorous stories, and biblical insights, you'll rediscover a love and a passion for God, for others, and for living.

Aside from being an accomplished speaker, Laura has published numerous stories in more than a dozen different books, and she is the author of All Mothers Are Working Mothers, a daily devotional designed to encourage women in the very valuable, but often under-valued profession of motherhood. Her children's book, "The ABC's of Charater" was released in May, 2009, and she is currently working on a book for single moms." Laura is a graduate of CLASS (Christian Leaders, Authors and Speakers Seminar) and a member of AWSA (Advanced Writers & Speakers Association). Laura and her husband enjoy a blended family with four teenagers, and are active in the youth ministry at their home church. Laura is also a National Certified Counselor and does individual, couple, and family therapy in Arizona. She expects to become a Certified Domestic Violence Specialist in May, 2010. Volunteer work in child advocacy on both her local community and state levels is a current passion.
