Zooming into the Spirit World with Laura Cerrano
By Hannah Williams, Real Estate Expert
Today’s Zoom session was more than just a meeting; it was a journey. We had the pleasure of welcoming back Feng Shui expert 
Laura Cerrano
, who delivered a deeply moving presentation on the delicate art of letting go as loved ones transition from this life to the next.
For our long-time members, Laura’s presence is a beautiful reminder of her late mother, 
Carol Provenzale
. 
Carol
 was a pioneer in Feng Shui and one of the very first experts I followed on Active Rain. She often spoke of butterflies and the mysteries of the afterlife—topics that have always resonated deeply with me. During the session, we felt Carol’s spirit with us, a moment so poignant it brought tears to my eyes. It felt like a profound validation of the spiritual connection we shared.
Laura continues her mother’s legacy with incredible grace and expertise. Beyond the spiritual transition, she provided fascinating insights into "house stigmas"—exploring the energetic causes behind why some homes just don't feel right and how to address them.
It was a powerful hour of storytelling, healing, and learning. If you missed it, you missed a truly special experience that reminded us all that real estate is about much more than just four walls; it’s about the energy and spirits that call those walls home.

Hannah I was looking forward to attending Laura's presentation today, but a last minute issue in the office prevented that.  Thank for providing a glimpse of what I missed.

I too was unable to sit in on the call and Laura obviously did not disappoint.

I enjoyed the presentation Hannah Williams and I was glad Debe Maxwell, CRS let the meeting run long. Laura Cerrano was very gracious in listening to and answering our questions.

Good morning, Hannah... I was hoping to steal an hour to attend, but was up to my eyeballs from 8 am negotiating a contract for clients that was in a multiple offer situation. It took till 4pm to be successful in getting a signed contract.

I have interacted with Laura Cerrano a bit in the Rain, but not as much as I would like, haha.  She definitely seems like a wonderful person, and it makes me happy to hear that the presentation was so well received!

Hannah Williams - You wrote a beautiful summary of Laura Cerrano presentation. It was very heartwarming and had to be very touching indeed! Things I liked, but sorry I missed:

1) I like the Feature Photo of Zoom without the faces of actual AR Members.

2) Your credit to Laura was sincere and the memories you have of her mom Carol, a pioneer in Feng Shui (the spiritual world) was also heartwarming. 

3) Your kudos to Laura for keeping her mother's legacy is to be applauded by all!

4) Great Blog Posts are about storytelling, healing, and learning!!!

5) A poignant reminder that the spiritual world is not something to be afraid of.

6) "Real estate is about much more than just four walls; it's about the energy and spirits that call those walls home."

I am seriously in hopes this Blog Post gets FEATURED on AR because of its all-inclusive reminders about current members who can attend Zoom, members like deceased member Carol Provenzale and her daughter Laura Cerrano who followed in her mother's spiritual footsteps, and most of all to you Hannah Williams who has a long history on ActiveRain and lots of good memories to share. 

Also, I want to share how proud I am of Debe Maxwell, CRS for starting Zoom during the pandemic. When everyone else was hiding in their homes, Debe introduced weekly Zoom Meetings where everyone's faces could be seen who attended.

Patricia Feager  You are always so sweet and kind. This was a very personal session for many of us; we shared personal moments and experiences, and some of us shed tears. This is a reason why we do not want these sessions recorded on YouTube - Thank you so much Patricia and have a beautiful day

Hannah Williams - Thank you for sharing it was "a very personal session." I was on an appointment and was thinking about the Zoom Meeting. I really wanted to be there. 

I'm sure I would have shed a few tears if I was there. I looked up at the clock and saw the time when you were meeting. The Zoom Session was on my mind. 

That's an excellent reason not to be recorded on YouTube. I was on a recent Zoom Session with a club I belong to about death, dying, and caregiving. After the session was over, I thought to myself, I opened up more than I would have, if only I had remembered we were being recorded for YouTube. I am not in favor starring in a YouTube Video. 

Thank you for writing the blog post and this comment too. I can only imagine how important and heartwarming it was for Laura.

Brian England  It certainly was a very special session, Brian, one that brought tears to some of our eyes as we discussed the loss of loved ones, even the loss of our beloved pets that are so precious to us. Thank you for your input

Hannah, I had two appointments yesterday and overlapped this Zoom, and still trying to finish up the packing.  Sure sounds like it was a good Zoom meeting.
