Our conversation with Laura Truelove - Creator of Daughters of the Sea

Our guest today is Laura Truelove. Laura is the founder of the women's surfing magazine, Daughters of the Sea. She started Daughters of the Sea because she wanted to see more wetsuit wearing women in the pages of surfing magazines and she wanted to see them in print, not just online. Daughters of the Sea publishes just one issue a year and each issue is a treasure trove of stories that dive deep into the nooks and crannies of our global community of cold water women.

I wrote an article for issue #2 of the magazine, in which I tell the story of why Holly and I decided to start a women's surf school and why we feel that the work we do is important. When I finally received my copy of the magazine, I was surprised by how strong a sense of comradery and connection I felt to everyone who not only contributed to the magazine but to everyone who would eventually read it. I think that feeling of connection is where the true value of storytelling lies and Laura does such a wonderful job of capturing it in the pages of her work.
