Ever feel like you are hanging on to something you want really badly??

Attached to the idea of it coming true - to help you feel something more about yourself or your life....

But you are struggling with how to make it actually happen in your reality?

I know this feeling of desire really well!

It's like you want it so badly that the absence of it makes you fight even more trying to get it...

To force or control the outcome - by doing more of the things you think (or have been taught to do) in hopes that it will bring you what you want so you can feel better.

Yet it still "feels" so far away...

The money, the relationship, the perfect job, the next promotion...

Ironically all the reaching, grasping, forcing is what is moving you further away from what you desire because it stems from a place of lack!

So what to do instead? 🤨

The answer might feel complex as we have been taught to "achieve" by doing 💪

What if we flipped this idea on it's head 🙃

And started doing the opposite - to focus more on feeling our way to our desires

When nothing seems to be working

What if it was your sign 🪧

To pause - to slow down, get as still as you can - and stop all the "doing" or action 🛑

Instead - feel your way back into alignment 😟🧐😕😐🤗

Practically speaking:
Listen to what your body is telling you - use the wisdom within you to understand what thoughts and actions are holding you back from seeing a new perspective and then do the work to release these outdated patterns so you can choose new beliefs that help you move towards what you desire - first energetically and ONLY then with action

When you get back into your flow - the actions will not only become super clear - they will seem effortless - like a magnet pulling to you all you desire

SO - What could you achieve if you stopped doing and instead started tuning inwards more - honoring the wisdom of your body and soul?

TRUTH: this has been the hardest part of my healing and expansion journey ☝️⬆️🔝

Can anyone else relate?

Many early experiences in my life led me to closing my heart - locking it up tight - making it hard for me to allow others in or let them get too close

In the end what I discovered is that it was about self trust - learning to trust myself again opened me up to trusting others more ❣️

And this changed everything!

It is at the heart of what allows us to blossom and grow

Without an open heart, we feel disconnected from ourselves and each other.

And it is why so many people globally feel fragmented - out of balance - not whole - lost - without purpose or passion - powerless!

BUT there is hope - In a world where most people want to close their heart….

You, like me, can CHOOSE to be different

To be more like the peacock 🦚

To open your feathers, offering love and kindness

Because life is more full and whole when you open your heart

And you start to see how the universe is working to support you 🫂

And how you, my dear soul, are here to support the world 🌎

This is the moment for your healing and transformation so you can awaken to the divine love within and all around you

Comment “discovery” and let’s have a call to explore how we can open your heart to all that life has to offer you

I went to Paris...

to be in joy, to discover the city lights during the holidays and to spoil myself with delicious treats! 🥐☕️

I thought it would be très magnifique! ❣️

Instead, I found myself confronted with something I wasn't expecting...

a deep sense of loneliness… 😕

Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t think going to a different city would completely feel amazing during the first holiday period post divorce. 💔

Yet, I didn’t imagine this pain - especially after all the healing I’d done during the year. ❤️‍🩹

So admittedly, I felt disappointed and somewhat frustrated with myself. 🙃

And then it struck me ⚡️

So often we have this idea that because we have been “doing the work..."

✔️whether it be on ourselves
✔️ on a project for work
✔️ or on a relationship

that we should somehow reach our final destination - so we can say...

“at last, I have arrived!” 🎶💸💎

Yet healing isn’t linear. 🎢

There is always more growth. Our expansion is infinite. ♾️

Which is great because from a place of greater expansion, we are able to see new possibilities for ourselves, our life and the world. 🎨🖌️

So - Merci beaucoup, Paris, for the expansion.

I unexpectedly discovered new things about the city and myself during my journey. And have a clearer picture now for what I want to create going forward!

Et vouz - Qu'évitez-vous que vous pourriez affronter de front? (And you? what are you avoiding that you might choose to face head on?)

It might not require a passport to visit but it could be the best trip you ever took. ✈️🌎🪐

In numerology, 2025 was a Universal 9 Year – the final year of the previous cycle.

A year of completions, transitions, and emotional closure. To release what had run its course.

I know I felt this! Did you?

Thankfully, 2026 is a new chapter - a Universal 1 Year, the start of a new nine-year cycle for the world and each one of us.

How you choose to show up this month will make a huge difference.

This is the moment to plant new seeds - to enable new potential to grow and blossom in your life and in the world.

The page is blank. The pen is in your hand. The universe is responding.

Go inward. Be still. Listen deeply for your soul's wisdom.

Be intentional with what you choose to dream about and create.

You are way more powerful than you realize!

Being quiet doesn't mean there isn't change happening!

Stillness isn't a sign of emptiness or void...

it's the quiet before the storm...

it's the winter before the spring...

It's the seed before the flower blooms!

I've had a very transformational and rejuvenating year.

Can't wait to share more in 2026!

In the meantime, enjoy your holidays!

Hope it's filled with joy, peace and all the light you could possibly need. 💫

With love and soul ❤️ Laura

P.S. Thanks .alexa_ for your amazing gifts 📸 and big heart 💕

🔥 What if the next level of success wasn’t about doing more… but healing and expanding from within?

After my recent divorce, I realized my work, my life, and even the space holding it, needed to transform.

Traditional coaching only scratches the surface.

So, I took a pause and dove into ancient traditions, healing parts of myself I didn’t even know were stressed and holding resistance.

🌿 What I discovered? Tools that help me connect deeper with myself and the world.

🌿 That’s why I created "Ignite – Expand – Elevate", a 12-week journey for high performers who crave depth:
✨ Ignite: uncover root challenges with my Mindset Energy™ assessment

🌱 Expand: reconnect with your unique purpose, power, and passions

🚀 Elevate: integrate practical tools for sustainable transformation

It’s where healing meets high performance, and grounded success begins from within.

A few weeks ago at my kids’ school, I read “All the Ways to Be Smart” to my daughter's class. 📖✨

I chose it for the children… but it was really for us adults too.

A few days earlier, my son had been asked, “Do you really think you’re smart?”

It broke my heart — because that question starts so young.

The belief that “smart” looks one way.
The need to prove we’re enough.

But there are so many ways to be smart.

So many ways to lead.

So many ways to shine.

Maybe it’s time we all redefine what “smart” really means. 💫

After every storm, there’s a version of you waiting to rise and shine. 🌈

I stepped away these past months — not to plan or produce, but to heal.

Life brought me a storm that ended my marriage and began my awakening.

When everything falls apart, it’s life’s way of helping you return home — to your whole self.

In the stillness, I reconnected to my essence, released what no longer served me, and began to embody a deeper truth.

This healing didn’t just change me — it transformed the way I heal and guide others.

It deepened every layer of my 12-week program, moving it beyond coaching for performance to deep healing and holistic transformation at the mind, body and soul level. 🌿

Because the rainbow isn’t something you find. It’s something you become. 🌈

💬 What was your rainbow moment?

Share this with someone who’s walking through their own storm right now —
they might need to be reminded of their rainbow too. 🌈

Hi 👋 It’s been a while. I’ve been intentionally quiet — creating space for healing after heartbreak and loss.

The deepest initiation I've experienced as a woman so far...to lean in and come face to face with grief i've carried my entire life.

Grief lives in the body. And when I experienced a massive anxiety attack I realized that I held on longer than I should have…
✨For my children.
✨For my ego.
✨For what felt familiar and safe.

Letting go of the marriage was one of the hardest things I've ever done.

But I’m remembering something important: Surrendering is not weakness. It’s a deeper kind of courage and strength. 🦁

This season has been less about doing and more about being.
❌ No rushing.
❌ No numbing through work.
✅ Just being with the pain, the softness, the unknown — while holding my children close and letting my nervous system exhale.

Some days are still messy.

Routine is still a work in progress.

But I’m here for it — all of it.

The slow rebuild. The truth-telling. The wholeness that only comes when nothing is forced.

🤍 If you're navigating your own letting go, know you're not alone.

This experience has deepened my compassion, my tools, and my purpose.

I'll be sharing more soon — from my heart to yours. 🙏

🚨 Confessions of a Coach: Here’s the truth: Burnout doesn’t just happen to my clients; I’ve been there too. 🙈

❌As a recovering high achiever, I know how easy it is to push through exhaustion until it’s too late.

✅That’s why I rely on these strategies to prevent burnout before it takes over.

⚡️First, look out for these early warning signs:
⚠️ Constant exhaustion, no matter how much you rest.
⚠️ Snapping at others over things that usually wouldn’t bother you.
⚠️ Feeling disconnected from the work that once fueled your passion.

✨ Here are the 5 strategies I swear by:
1️⃣ The "Sensory Reset" Technique
Why it works: It calms overstimulation by focusing on your senses, helping you ground in the present.

2️⃣ Schedule a "Thinking Fast" vs. "Thinking Slow" Check-In
Why it works: Slowing down gives your brain space to process deeply and avoid decision fatigue.

3️⃣ Embrace the "Non-Negotiable Recharge Zone"
Why it works: Structuring daily recovery time prevents exhaustion from building up.

4️⃣ The Power of The Compassionate Pause
Why it works: Self-compassion quiets the inner critic, building emotional and mental resilience.

5️⃣ Somatic Grounding Exercises
Why it works: Connecting to your body helps release stress and reset your nervous system.
