ABOUT LAUREN:

Lauren (she/they)’s North Star is to use her superpowers - intuition, creativity, and contagious energy - to help people gain the tools they need to be confident changemakers and contribute to building a more socially just world.

She started coaching in 2020 to help multi-passionate, socially-committed professionals navigate times of career identity crises and find what lights them up. Lauren’s coaching framework helps jobseekers, employees, managers, and entrepreneurs to:

1) Uncover and unlearn imposed pressures and standards of (what she calls) Toxic Professionalism - You’ll make decisions by your own standards, values, energizers, priorities, non-negotiable needs to thrive.

2) Strengthen self-compassion muscles - You learn what you need to speak to and about yourself in a self-assured way, shift your energy, and emit genuine confidence that goes beyond your professional life.

3.) Self-advocate & build meaningful professional relationships - You’ll learn leadership skills such as building a career support squad, networking in a non-icky way, and how to talk about your needs and self-advocate. Clients also learn compassionate confrontation for maintaining healthy relationships.

Working with Lauren means you’ll build the foundational self-awareness, self-compassion, and self-advocacy you need to make your career and life goals a reality.

Helping you find what lights you up 💡

★★★★★

“My biggest transformation has been in knowing my worth and zooming out to see more parts of my identity rather than seeing myself as a worker first and person second. I feel more prepared to create healthy boundaries in future jobs and do good work while prioritizing my wellbeing.

I was surprised by how at ease I was discussing my experiences of work and my goals for the future—Lauren is so easy to communicate with and I felt supported and never judged for sharing my goals and interests.

I would recommend Lauren to anyone who has an open mind about an upcoming career transition, including those who are changing fields, graduating college, or simply looking for a new organization/new opportunity to join.”
