Hi, I’m Lauren

The last decade has given me hard-won lessons in resilience, rebuilding and optimism.

After surviving acute myeloid leukaemia with a 20% survival chance, rebuilding my life, starting my international legal career, and founding an award-winning wellness brand with my sister, I’ve seen first-hand what real resilience and mindset work really look like in practice.

Whether you’re bringing a small group of senior leaders together or thousands of women navigating big life transitions, I help people make sense of their own hard seasons and walk away with practical tools for resilience, mindset and personal growth that they can keep using long after the event is over.
