I’m a coach and meditation teacher who loves helping people transform through their work, parenting, or spirituality.
A few things about me:
I have been practicing mindfulness meditation for over 20 years.
I taught yoga for a bit and now mostly practice at home.
I’m an imperfect parent to 15 and 12-year-old kids.
I was a corporate leader in Biotech for 14 years before starting my coaching and meditation business.
I love fantasy and sci-fi movies. The Princess Bride is my favorite.
I have an excessive number of certifications because I love learning in groups.
I am especially proud of my PCC credential from the International Coaching Federation. It demonstrates my commitment to ethical standards and continual learning in my profession.
Hi. I’m Lauren.

My Other Coaching and Facilitation Roles
-
@Stanford Graduate School of Business
The WIM Groups Program provides ongoing, professionally facilitated groups that center on the female GSB student experience. The groups invite students to explore their individual and collective experiences, and to establish an empowering and inclusive community that provides support for navigating the GSB and life. The groups also aid in normalizing the business school experience and providing continuity as students experience the two‐year arc of the MBA Program.
The role of the facilitator is to build a self‐managing group where members are accountable for the success of the group. Facilitators are expected to create an environment of trust & safety where our values of inclusion, mutual respect, integrity, diversity, honesty, transparency and confidentiality are honored. Content initiated by the group ranges from current life at the GSB to visioning future opportunities and goals. -
