Some gifts are too big to stay hidden forever. For Laura Madden, it took 20 years, a pile of discarded fabric, and the courage to finally stop keeping hers a secret.

In this episode of Her Table, Her Rules, welcomes Laura Madden, Contemporary Artist, for a real conversation about reinvention of what it takes, what it costs, and why it’s always worth it. Laura spent nearly two decades making art in secret before walking away from a career in fitness and fashion to pursue it full-time. She breaks down how she built her practice from scratch — collecting textile scraps others threw away and turning discarded materials into large-scale works.

Laura also gets honest about the fear that almost kept her from stepping out the terror of judgment, of looking weird, of getting it wrong. What finally pushed her through was the weight of too many years not living her truth.

If you’ve been quietly sitting on something you love, this episode is your sign.
