Laura Cathcart Robbins is an acclaimed culture writer, storyteller extraordinaire & now beloved host of The Only One in the Room Podcast.

Laura’s survived post-natal depression; struggled through debilitating addiction and divorced her high-profile, Hollywood juggernaut, ex-husband.  And when life felt very much rock bottom, Laura met her long-time love and collaborator Scot, in rehab… as you do… & has been sober now for 13 years.  

 Laura’s also a 2018 LA Moth StorySlam winner and sits on the advisory board for the San Diego Writer’s Festival, the Outliers HQ podcast Festival, as well as being the founding member of Moving Forewords, the first American memoirist collective of its kind.  

 Laura’s articles in The Huffington Post and The Temper on the subjects of race, recovery, and divorce have garnered her worldwide praise. 

 Laura’s gorgeous in every way, she’s as honest as the day is long and I’m absolutely thrilled she’s here.  Did I mention her voice is mellifluous?  Ok, OK, a little bit of a girl crush is clearly going on…

 This is Laura’s story…
