195: From School Counselor to Content Creator with Lauren Trefethren (Lauren Midwest)

This week on The Found Podcast, I'm joined by the hilarious and insightful Lauren Trefethren—the creative force behind the beloved Instagram account Lauren Midwest. If you love Midwest culture, motherhood musings, and content that perfectly balances humor and heart, you're in for a treat.

Lauren's journey is anything but conventional (which is what I LOVE). She started as a school counselor, but life had other plans. Now, she's building a thriving online community by sharing relatable, laugh-out-loud Midwest moments while also tackling deeper topics like grief, identity, and the realities of content creation.

Oh yeah, and did I mention that as of March 26, you can now catch her on Netflix's new reality show Million Dollar Secret? Yeah, she's on that.

In this episode, we dive into:
▪️Lauren's unexpected career pivot from counseling to content creation
▪️The highs and lows of showing up authentically online
▪️The challenges and misconceptions of being a full-time creator
▪️A nostalgic trip back to mid-2000s culture during our small talk round

And because we like to keep it real, we're also letting you in on some serious tech struggles we had while recording this episode (Zoom, why must you test us?!).

Hit play now and let us know: What's your favorite Midwest stereotype that you 100% live by?
