10 Things You Might Not Know About Home Staging Expert Laura Bohn

HUGE fan of country music.

Pop, hip hop, rock and old school are also thrown into the mix, but my go-to is always country.

Before home staging I used to be a Radiology Technologist. 

Quite the 180, but yes, before this I was wearing scrubs and taking x-rays. I worked in the medical field for 3 years before I worked up the nerve to quit my steady 9-5 job and pursue my dream of owning a home staging business. If you want to learn more about my story click here.

Bucket List item… Go to the Kentucky Derby.

And wear a big fancy hat!

Funny story…

When I was a little girl I used to go to horse camp. The horse I had during camp was a beautiful brown chestnut colored horse with a white diamond between its eyes. And guess what?! He was available for sale at the end of camp! Quite literally I begged my mother to buy my horse and take him home with us. She would say “Now Laura, where do you suppose we are going to store this gigantic animal?” Well that was a simple answer for a child, “In our fenced in backyard!” To me it was a no brainer. No we did not have a large back yard. And no it didn’t even cross my mind how we were going to transport the horse to the house and who would properly take care of him. Of course, the answer was a big fat “NO.”

Looking back, it’s funny to think that I actually thought my mother would let me take home a horse. Even though she crushed my dreams at that moment, to this day I am still determined to own my very own horse… and believe me, I will do it.

I’ve gone skydiving at 11,000 feet.

Above the clouds and all, I jumped.

Jumping out of an airplane is exhilarating… your heart is racing, your body is shaking, and the next thing you know, your feet are on the edge of the plane and the instructor attached to your back is leaning you forward and out of the plane. It’s such an adrenaline rush that I remember as soon as I landed I just wanted more.

Crazy cat lady.

Growing up we’ve always had a cat in the house. Three years ago I adopted my very own, Stella Rose, from a rescue. Her mom was found in a dumpster, pregnant, when a garbage man heard a cat crying. He took her home to keep as a pet, but realized she was pregnant and that the best decision would be to give her up to a rescue. Shortly after, she gave birth, and my Stella was one of them. This story is so near and dear to my heart that in the near future I plan on becoming a foster myself to help other cats in need.
