Get To Know Laura!
I’m a Yoga & Meditation teacher, mindfulness coach and author of “Seek Discover Transform: A Path to Creating a Purpose-filled Life”.
​
I guide people to connect & align with their soul's purpose to create greater meaning, fulfillment and joy in their lives. What will you do with your one precious life?
Whether you're feeling the pull for change or navigating a major life transition, you may find yourself uncertain, disconnected from your soul's truest desires, and unsure of your next steps. This can lead to feelings of anxiety, doubt, overwhelm, sadness, or chronic stress. Many struggle to prioritize their own well-being, leaving them feeling burnt out and lost.
My path of yoga and meditation started in my early twenties when I felt lost and disconnected from my life’s purpose. I was struggling with stress, anxiety and uncertainty. Yoga gave me the tools to connect with my body and process challenging emotions. Meditation helped me get grounded and clear, calming my anxious thoughts so I was able to connect with my inner self.
Feeling more calm and centred I entered the path of entrepreneurship.
​​
Following this path for 20 years, I created a successful business that fulfilled me. ​
When my dad died of cancer quite suddenly in 2013 my life was upended and I felt myself going into a spiral of not dealing with the grief. Instead, I worked harder, I bought another business, and I kept myself as busy as possible to not feel. This was a recipe for disaster, as “not” dealing with the grief came crashing down hard on me. I was always on edge and stressed out, and my health began to suffer.
​
Hitting rock bottom, or as some call it "the dark night of the soul", I knew something had to change.
I turned back to yoga and meditation and began a consistent practice. Slowly I began to improve mentally and physically. Over the next few years, I fell back in love with these ancient practices. Experiencing, once again the transformative effect yoga, meditation and inner work had on my own life, I completed my yoga teacher training in 2016 and my meditation facilitator certification in 2020. For me, these modalities allowed me to get in touch with my true self and listen to a new nudging of my soul.
I felt called to create and live a more spiritually aligned life and I realized my career would evolve into a more soul-aligned business. In 2023 I created Awakened Living! Here I teach yoga & meditation classes as well as soul-focused day retreats, providing immersive experiences for deeper connection and transformation. I also created an online program designed to help you get clear on your desires, become mindful of limiting beliefs and take aligned action to create greater fulfillment in your life-- all within a supportive group to help keep you accountable. In 2023 I also published my first book-- a self-guided book to help you on your journey of transformation.
​
The tools we practice at retreats and within the program can help you to get in touch with your SELF and your Soul’s truest desires, decrease stress, and process and heal challenging emotions. By creating mental and emotional ease, you can access your intuition. With continued practice, you’ll gain confidence that will empower you to take action to create the life you deserve.
Whether you seek guidance, community, or practical tools for transformation, I’m here to support your journey.

In Love and Light,
Laura
