Lifelong Learning for Delayed Gratification
with Linda Lauridsen
Season One
Episode Fifteen
"If you have the gumption, the ability and the drive, you can make it happen. And my dad had a very clear vision of what his expectations were, and he never wavered from that. Consistently he showed me that if you stay with something every day, the end result happens".

Episode Summary
When you think of your parents, does a certain quality or lesson come to mind? You might have learned to be hard working, passionate, or learned certain manners from your parents that you hope to pass down to your kids some day. Linda Lauridsen shares some of this in her story on the podcast today. Listen and she and Linda talk about:
-
Spending the beginning of her youth in a small rural town then moving to a farm her entrepreneurial father built
-
Loving the feel of community and wanting to get back to that after high school
-
Receiving the gift of delayed gratification from her father
-
Passing down manners and values to her daughter through a sense of a Sunday roast
Linda’s story is very heartwarming and meaningful as she talks about qualities and the value of family. It is so easy nowdays to get lost in all of our devices, and we need to remember to be present with our family members when we get the chance.
This episode has now been transformed into a chapter of its very own inside the book series Stories with a Sunday Roast. It weaves together the memories that were shared during the podcast conversations with my personal experiences.
Unlike the podcast, the carefully crafted stories and mouth-watering descriptions of roasty meals will transport you to another level as you turn the pages.
