Hi, I'm Lauren. You are always becoming.
Having it all begins with learning to love, accept, trust, and respect yourself. Founder of Lasting Change Wellness, board-certified Health, Wellness and Happiness Coach, and former psychologist and family therapist.
Lauren's story
At 53 I finally decided it was time to make myself a priority and create a life I really love. Little did I know that when I began to show up strong for myself, I would have so much more to give to others.
I imagined the possibilities for living a bigger, bolder life centered on my passions and life purpose. I changed my mindset to look for ways to say “hell, yes!” to what I love, and to move past the voices in my head that said “I can't” or “Who am I to…”. I prioritized my self-care: body, mind, and spirit.
Other people noticed. I heard, “you are a light in this world” and “you have such a peaceful and loving presence.” Standing in my brightest light changed everything. I began to shine.
It is my absolute pleasure and my purpose to help you take this level of control in your life, and not wait to figure it out on your own. You are always in the process of becoming. Allow me to give you the tools that help you continually become the next best version of yourself.
Professional background.
