Laura Tremaine

Writer + Podcaster

Hi, I’m Laura. I believe that sharing your stuff will make you less lonely.

I’ve spent nearly 20 years encouraging women to document their lives and share their stories as a way to give meaning.

You might know me from my books about connection…

Share Your Stuff. I’ll Go First.

features 10 questions to take your friendships to the next level.  This book works best when read with a friend or a group and pushes you to identify the stories and moments that make you who you are. 

The Life Council: 10 Friends Every Woman Needs

was a book born out of years of loneliness in Los Angeles and how I forged deep connections with the people in my life by reframing how I thought about even my most surface relationships.

Or maybe you’ve heard me through your headphones…

I’ve been a podcaster for over a decade now, as a co-host, on solo episodes, and in interviews on both sides of the mic. 

My podcast 10 Things To Tell You aired from 2019 - 2025 and I created nearly 400 episodes garnering millions of downloads. 

Currently you can find me as the co-host of the SLOW READ podcast with Sarah Stewart Holland, where we tackle the books you’ve always wanted to read at a pace you can handle.

But the best work I’m doing right now is on the Secret Stuff Substack.

You can find regular essays, personal podcast episodes, a book club, journal prompts, and monthly Symposiums in this space. This is the heartbeat of all of my work, and I’d love for you to join me there.
