Deep Dive: Dr. Laura LIVE at SiriusXM Los Angeles Studios

Have you come to one of my live stage performances? I’ve done many over the years, but the ones at the SiriusXM studios in Los Angeles have been among the most special. The theater is tiny, which means I’m up close and personal with those who attend. Lily meanders through the audience and picks certain laps to sit on. I take audience questions and ask questions of my own. We take pictures at the end, and I give out lots of hugs and Dr. Laura-themed goodies. Oh, and these events are FREE to attend. You just need to be a Dr. Laura Family member to get on the invitation list. Take a listen to this special re-broadcast of our May 9th Dr. Laura LIVE event, taped at SiriusXM in LA. And be sure to go to Dr. Laura dot com to join my FREE Family so you’ll be among those invited to the next event in October 2025! Searching for advice?
