Meet Lauri Mora

Today we’d like to introduce you to Lauri Mora

Hi Lauri, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
My name is Lauri Mora, and my journey here has been one of tough decisions, moments of self-discovery, and a constant search for purpose. Since I was young, I knew I wanted to dedicate myself to helping others, which is why, when it came time to choose a career, I chose medicine. The idea of saving lives and making a tangible difference in people’s well-being fascinated me. However, as I progressed in my studies, I began to question whether I was truly willing to take on the high personal and emotional cost of this career. I realized that I didn’t want to sacrifice essential aspects of my life and well-being in the process. So, with all the pain it involved, and despite my family’s initial lack of understanding, I decided to change direction.

It was an extremely difficult decision. Shifting from medicine to clinical psychology not only meant facing my family’s expectations and pride but also confronting my own fears and doubts. I felt torn between what I had always thought I should be and what, in my heart, I knew I really wanted to do. Yet, amidst that storm of emotions, I understood that, more than a title, my true calling was to help people heal, understand themselves, and find their own paths. I knew psychology was the perfect path to achieve this.

Clinical psychology has given me a new perspective on health and well-being. I realized that healing doesn’t only mean curing the physical but also caring for the mind and spirit, and accompanying people on their journey of self-discovery and growth. This training has allowed me to connect with others in a much deeper and more meaningful way, and every day it inspires me to keep offering support and empathy to those around me.

Besides being a psychologist, I also trained as a surgical assistant, which opened doors to a part of the medical field that still excites me. Being a surgical assistant has been an opportunity to stay connected to the health world, developing technical skills and constantly learning. My versatility and ability to adapt to any challenge have earned me the nickname “Barbie” among my friends, inspired by the famous doll who can take on multiple roles and professions. This nickname reflects my multifaceted nature and my ease in taking on new challenges without fear of stepping out of my comfort zone.

Today, through my social media platform, I’ve found a way to bring together all these experiences and skills in a space where I can communicate and connect with a diverse audience. My content aims to go beyond appearances, touching on social and psychological topics, inviting my followers to reflect and find deeper meaning in their lives. I aspire for my platform to be a place where people not only get informed but also feel understood and supported on their own journey of self-discovery.

Ultimately, my story is proof that sometimes the paths we take lead us to unexpected yet incredibly fulfilling destinations. I’ve learned that being true to oneself and facing adversity with determination allows us to build an authentic and meaningful life. Today, I’m grateful for every decision and every obstacle that brought me here, as they’ve laid the foundation for my mission: to inspire, connect, and support others in their pursuit of well-being.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
My journey has certainly not been an easy one; it’s been filled with tough decisions and challenges. Switching from medicine to psychology was a critical moment for me. Facing my family’s initial disapproval and doubts about my own future was one of the biggest obstacles. I felt the pressure to meet others’ expectations while dealing with the fear of the unknown. However, it was in the midst of this crossroads that I found clarity about who I truly wanted to be and what I was willing to do to achieve it.

In my professional journey, balancing personal and work life has been another challenge. Being a surgical assistant while building a career in psychology and a social media platform required a great deal of organization and adaptability. It was a constant process of learning and exploring different facets of myself as I worked to find harmony in my multiple roles.

Another challenge has been finding an approach on social media that truly connects with the audience. The social and psychological topics I cover require a special sensitivity so that my content is both inspiring and educational. This constant learning has strengthened my purpose to connect in an authentic and empathetic way, allowing me to provide support and value to those who follow me.

My mission is to create a safe and authentic space where my audience can find both useful information and profound reflections that help improve their emotional well-being and personal growth.

Instead of following current trends, my goal is to provide lasting and accessible value for all kinds of people. I take pride in knowing that the topics I address are meaningful and necessary, helping my audience feel understood and supported.

So maybe we end on discussing what matters most to you and why?
What matters most to me is the genuine connection with people and the positive impact I can have on their lives. Since my beginnings in psychology, I have understood that each individual has a unique story, challenges, and aspirations. This understanding drives me to provide a space where people feel seen, heard, and understood.

Empathy is a fundamental value in my life and work. I firmly believe that when people feel supported and validated in their emotions and experiences, they can begin to heal and grow. This is why I am dedicated to creating content that not only informs but also inspires and offers practical tools for emotional well-being.

Additionally, authenticity is crucial to me. In a world that often prioritizes superficiality, I strive to be an example of honesty and transparency. I want my followers to know that behind every post is a genuine commitment to their well-being and that I am here to provide real support on their journey.

Ultimately, what truly matters is contributing to the creation of a strong and positive community, where everyone feels empowered to share their experiences and learn from one another. For me, this human connection is what gives meaning to my work and motivates me to keep moving forward every day.
