About The Editor
I’m a sojourner.
Paola Lane represents the path of my deepening encounters in life.
Every step is full of delight, adventure, and revelation. This magazine, in reality, seems to be a journal of my own life journey. It’s my very heart.
Laura Prather is the Founder and Editor of Paola Lane Magazine

Sharing My Journey
I’m Laura, a business owner who searches for joy in the little things. I’m passionate about my King, Yeshua. I’ve been through floods and fires and carried battle wounds. I do my best to love well but still disappoint people more than I like. My goal is to say, “yes” to the Living God daily, live in peace, and love better every day.
I love being creative and trying new things. My creative rest is painting and my favorite way to destress is going for a walk along our lake or kayaking. My husband and I have a vintage typewriter business on the side…and, yes, I actually use them to write articles for the magazine and podcast!
I have a grown son in college and a talented stepdaughter and son-in-law with a thriving pottery business. The only child left at home is a spoiled 10-year-old Boston Terrier-Chihuahua, Kili.
