about the host &
the show
Welcome!
My name is Lorie. Yep, with an “E” at the end! Not many of us out there and love that it is unique! I am the host and creator of Sailing Through Life.
Life is a journey and you have the opportunity to make a difference in life by being your true authentic self. We all have the power within to embrace our best lives, but sometimes need help navigating the storms we encounter.
You have what you need inside of you. Through many life events, I have found my strength and courage. I have made the hard choices and discovered who I am. It has been an incredible journey.
I think about how I started a podcast to be a friend to others going through their own life changes. Since then, there have been so many changes in my own life. I have been graced by so many incredible people who have been a blessing to me and willing to share their experiences in the hope of reaching and helping others.
You need to invest in yourself in order to be a value to others.
I have learned it is time to LIVE my best life…NOW.
On this show, I share my life and conversations with amazing people and organizations that provide support and hope for the future. Listen to survivors, life coaches, authors as they enlighten us on this journey. Follow me as we navigate through this thing called life.
There is so much more I can say about my mission and of course about anything sailing. Please take time to check in for new episodes as I update you on my story as well.
It’s time to feel empowered! It’s time to make every choice count! Join me as I set sail on this new adventure.

Cancer Out Loud with CancerCare
“Lorie, a two-time melanoma survivor and CancerCare online support group member, joins the podcast to talk about her diagnosis and treatment experience. She explains that cancer pushed her to re-prioritize and re-evaluate her life, drawing parallels between life with cancer and her love for sailing. The open sea is unpredictable and necessitates constant adaptation and perseverance, but it can also be beautiful, bright, warm, and life-affirming, Lorie shares. Through her podcast, Sailing Through Life, Lorie hopes she can use her voice and cancer experience to connect to others and feels that if she is able to help just one person feel less isolated, her endeavors will be worthwhile.”
