Our Clients

Leadership today asks more of us than ever before.

Sustained performance, constant change, high responsibility, and increasing complexity place real demands on leaders.

I work with:

  • Leaders operating under ongoing pressure

  • Professionals navigating growth, change, or expanded responsibility

  • Organizations seeking performance without burnout

This is not about pushing harder or doing more. It’s about building the capacity that allows leaders to remain focused, grounded, and effective—especially when it matters most.

Sustainable leadership requires capacity—not just commitment.

Hi, I’m Laurel

My work sits at the intersection of leadership, nervous system regulation, emotional intelligence, and energy management. I help people build the internal capacity required to lead well under pressure—with clarity, presence, and sustainability.

This work is grounded in a simple truth:

Sustainable leadership requires capacity—not just commitment.

Why This Work Matters

For many years, I worked in high-responsibility environments where pressure, complexity, and performance expectations were constant. Like many capable, committed professionals, I learned how to push through—how to meet expectations, deliver results, and keep going.

What I didn’t learn early on was how to recover, how to work with stress rather than override it, or how to lead from a regulated nervous system.

Eventually, that cost showed up—not because I lacked resilience or commitment, but because sustained performance without adequate capacity is not sustainable.

That experience shaped the work I do today.

What I Do Now

I partner with leaders, teams, and organizations to implement the skills that support leadership that lasts.

Through coaching and interactive workshops, I help leaders:

  • Strengthen emotional regulation for clearer decision-making

  • Reduce reactivity and stress-driven patterns

  • Build energy management practices that support focus, boundaries, and recovery

  • Prevent burnout by addressing stress early—before it becomes a breaking point

This is not about fixing people or pushing for constant positivity.

It’s about increasing capacity so leaders can meet the real demands of their roles with steadiness, effectiveness, and integrity.

My Approach

My approach is practical, grounded, and deeply human.

I draw on neuroscience-informed coaching, nervous system education, and decades of experience working in demanding professional environments. The work is accessible, applicable, and designed to integrate into real leadership contexts—not idealized ones.

Clients often tell me they feel:

  • More grounded under pressure

  • Clearer in their decisions

  • Better equipped to lead difficult conversations

  • More sustainable in how they work and lead

Who This Is For

This work is for leaders and organizations who:

  • Care deeply about their work and their people

  • Are operating in complex, high-demand environments

  • Want performance and sustainability

  • Know that burnout prevention is a leadership responsibility, not a personal failure

Let’s Talk

If you’re curious about working together—through leadership coaching or bringing this work into your organization—I’d welcome the conversation.

Sustainable leadership requires capacity—not just commitment.
