Laura Duksta: New York Times Best Selling Children's Author, Speaker, Visionary
Laura Duksta is a New York Times best selling author who believes through the power of love, and with an attitude of gratitude, anything is possible. Laura lost all of her hair to Alopecia Areata at the age of 11. It took her many years to love herself and to allow others to love her. She quickly realized that she would never trade having hair for the lessons of love, compassion and understanding for herself and others that she’s experienced. She’s come to know that our biggest challenges can blossom into our biggest blessings, and has embraced the power that comes from being yourself.
Laura knew from a young age that she was meant to travel the world, meet her brothers and sisters, and spread the message of love. She is now fulfilling this mission through her books, school programs, music and inspirational talks. I Love You More, originally self-published, has now sold over 800,000 copies and is available in six languages. Her second book You Are a Gift to the World flips over to The World is a Gift to You and encourages us to love and care for ourselves, one another, and the world we call home. Her third book I’ll Hug You More is due for release in January 2017. She has been featured in USA Today, as one of "10 Individuals Making a Difference in South Florida" in Boca Magazine, in several creative anthologies, as well as on and in dozens of TV, radio shows, blogs and articles.
