Her own journey has not been without its challenges. Removing herself from a domestic violence situation meant not having a home of her own for herself and her infant daughter, and having to rebuild from scratch. With limited options and resources, Lauren honed in on resilience, making the best of and building on whatever was in front of her.

Lauren deeply values integrity, communication and connection. After working 15 years at a corporate company, she realized that her desire to align with those values was not being met. Trusting her instincts, she left to become a trained coach and began her journey with iPEC (The Institute of Professional Excellence in Coaching). That journey was as much an awakening for her to her truest-self as it was a formal education.

She works with people around themes of empathy, judgment, self-responsibility and radical acceptance. She believes creating awareness around these concepts can literally change the world.
