Laura Odegard: A Quick Chat

27th June 2020

By Eleanor Klein. Tell us more about your talk show Millennial Life.

Millennial Life is a talk show where we interview millennials who are crushing it in business, entertainment and beyond. From 7-figure entrepreneurs to Instagram influencers and reality tv stars, I get to sit down with some of the most inspiring people and hear their story of how they got to where they are.

Who has been the most interesting person you have interviewed to date and why?

One of my favorite interviews was with Nikki Bella. I interviewed her for a charity event for Dress For Success, which helps women to achieve financial independence. Her company, Birdiebee was there to support helping women achieve financial success as well. We talked about her best tips for feeling confident and how to land your dream job. She is so honest and passionate, it was an interview I’ll never forget!

If you could interview anyone in the world who would it be and why?

I would love to interview Gabby Bernstein. She is such an inspiration and has inspired me to practice meditation daily! (Well, almost daily… 🙂

How do you usually prepare for an interview?

I always do my research before an interview, and that usually is an on-going process that includes keeping up with people on social media and watching for any recent announcements that they’ve made. I think the best interviews are ones that flow like a natural conversation, so I don’t usually have a set agenda of what’s going to be said, but rather a few points of conversation to bring up. Lastly, it’s important to make sure my guest feels comfortable and relaxed, so we always have coffee, snacks, tea, water and cocktails or rosé on set! 😉

What advice do you have for someone looking to get into on-air hosting?

I would say to create your own opportunities wherever you can! With social media, you can really get creative and make your own content, which is amazing. I love healthy cooking, so I recently started a YouTube channel dedicated to sharing my healthy cooking and lifestyle videos. These are completely separate from Millennial Life, but it’s such a fun way to create my own opportunities! Plus, you never know who might see it 😉

What is the best piece of advice you have ever been given?

“The body achieves what the mind believes”

Thank you Laura!
