Refresher: I Wouldn't Have Changed a Thing
04:21 Share

When Skechers says they've revolutionized how you put on and take off your shoes, they aren't kidding. I just got my first pair of hands-free Skechers slip-ins, and I want them in every color. You literally just step into your Skechers slip-ins, and they're on. No bending, no struggling. They're fantabulous. I came up with that word.

Feet gently slide in thanks to an invisible built-in shoe horn. A heel pillow feature keeps your foot secure. Slip-ins come in athletic and casual styles for men, women, and kids. They even have sandals with special features and fits like Skechers air-cooled memory foam, arch fit, relaxed fit, wide fit. Once your feet have experienced hands-free Skechers slip-ins, they won't want to wear any other shoe. They certainly exceeded my expectations.

You can find Skechers at Skechers.com slash Dr. Laura or Skechers.com. Use the promo code Dr. Laura. Valid for 20% off site-wide. Standard exclusions apply. Valid March 5th through May 30th, 2025.

Time now for a refresher from my Dr. Laura Call of the Day archives. And remember, you too can participate on my live radio program heard weekdays from 2 to 5 p.m. Eastern Time on Sirius XM Triumph 111. Lacey, welcome back to the program. Hey, Dr. Laura. You have no idea how happy I am to hear your voice.

Okay, for those who didn't hear our first conversation, you want to give just a thumbnail sketch of what you had called for? Sure. I called because I was very nervous whenever I performed, and you helped me get over that nervousness by realizing that I shouldn't perform for other people, that I should perform for myself. Right. For the joy of the music. Yeah. So tell me what happened the day...

Yes, you remember that. Okay, so tell me what happened the day you performed. Tell me. So I got up there to perform. I took a deep breath and took my time, like you said, and I gave my accompanist the cue, and I just let the music take me. Wow. And at one point, I had to close my eyes and just imagine nobody's there. And after a while, I was able to open my eyes and see

I think for the first time, I wouldn't go back and change a thing with my performance. Because normally I nitpick at everything I would do and be like, oh, I wish I could go back and change this and change that. But really, I was just, I was like, I did a wonderful job. You enjoyed it. And I received, oh, sorry. You enjoyed it. Yeah. Yeah.
