Client Experiences
What It’s Like to Work Together
Clients come to this work for different reasons - from building strength and creating consistency to managing stress and feeling more connected to their bodies. Here, they share what brought them in, what changed, and what stood out along the way.
Individual Coaching
Kiera K. - Supply Chain Engineering Analytics
“We could work through both the physical and nervous system side all at once—getting stronger, feeling less stressed, and gaining the tools to handle whatever comes my way.”
What brought me in
“I was working on balancing a full-time career, moving houses, and my little one starting kindergarten, and I could tell I was constantly feeling overwhelmed. My personal time was the first thing I would give up to feel like I was ‘on top of things,’ when in reality I was making it worse.
“I was excited that starting this with Lauren meant we could work through both the physical and nervous system side all at once—getting stronger, feeling less stressed, and gaining the tools to handle whatever comes my way.”
What changed
“I feel like I’ve seen a big change in mental resiliency since Lauren and I started working together. Having better awareness of my breath, along with how my body reacts to both positive and negative situations, has made it so much easier to roll with the punches, even when plans change.
“It has also helped with communication with my partner. Now that I have the ability to identify and put words to what I’m feeling, he doesn’t have to guess what I’m feeling. I’ve noticed that I feel better all around because I’m being more purposeful about making space to move my body.”
What stood out
“It was crazy how easy Lauren made it to habit-stack and have little wins during the day that I now do without even thinking about it. She makes the process approachable, easy, and FUN—which isn’t something I really expected. Best of all, she knows how to make each week feel like a success, even if the win is drinking more water.”

Emily B. - Writer & Student
“I wanted to find a sustainable path forward in both strength and resilience.”
What brought me in
“I wanted to find a sustainable path forward in both strength and resilience. I knew something was ‘off’ in my effort, especially regarding my life balance and rhythms of exertion and rest, but on my own, I couldn’t seem to order my priorities in a way that supported the life I ultimately want.
“I’m learning about balance and how to maintain growth without letting the ‘more, more, more’ culture dominate my view of myself.”
What changed
“A few months in, I have a much better understanding of how to resource, both during exertion and afterward. My body communicates more clearly than I realize. If I listen to it—if I’m willing to down-regulate and lean into self-awareness—I feel better overall. My body responds very well to this kind of self-care.”
What it’s like to work together
“Lauren is exceptionally gifted and equipped for her vocation. Her care for others is what I always take away from our sessions. She listens. Her warmth and depth are a part of every interaction.
“I feel supported and encouraged, and also positively challenged. She is an excellent coach. It’s been worth it! For sure!”
What stood out
“You always listen to individual needs and provide feedback. It is so nice to have a check-in each week where we can chat back and forth about changes or what went well during the week. Even though it’s all online, I always feel supported. So many resources are included in the app beyond just your daily workout, which is also a huge bonus.
“The logs and check-ins each week are encouraging and exciting. It’s fun to see how you have improved week to week!”
What changed
“I think I have become more motivated since starting. Logging all my workouts each week and tracking HRV, resting heart rate, and respiratory rate keeps me accountable.”
What brought me in
“We were looking to work with someone who would listen to our needs and tailor workouts to things we enjoy doing while pushing us as well. Overall, the goal was to become more in tune with our bodies’ needs and our overall health. We wanted to get started with a strength-training plan and ended up getting so much more.”
“We wanted to get started with a strength-training plan and ended up getting so much more.”

Anna B. - Story Producer
“Lauren brings a really good blend of science and education, resources you can use on your own, and support in implementing a practice.”
What brought me in
“I felt like I do a lot of my emotional regulation via my BRAIN—I can analyze or therapize a situation to no end—but I was interested in learning and implementing more tools that can regulate starting with my BODY.
“I am someone who carries a lot of feeling in my body, and sometimes getting stuck in my brain seems to create even more of a disconnect between my mind and body. It felt like breathwork could help bridge that gap.”
What changed
“Working with Lauren was way different than I anticipated, but in the best way. First and foremost, I loved the educational component. I am definitely someone who needs to understand the ‘why’ behind something in order to effectively understand and implement it.
“Learning about the nervous system and how breath can impact it was SO helpful for me. I also really liked how simple yet effective breath can be. I am someone who errs on the side of seeking out things that are higher intensity and require more ‘work,’ so tapping into something as simple and accessible as breathing feels counterintuitive to me—but in the best way.”
What stood out
“Lauren brings a great balance of education, resources, knowledge, but also practice. It is hard to find people who truly seem to practice what they preach. Lauren is definitely one of them!
“I found it really helpful having our weekly one-on-one touchpoints, conversations, and space to answer questions. It would be easy to pay for a ‘breathwork course’ or something more asynchronous, but this format really worked well for me.
“Lauren brings a really good blend of science and education, resources you can use on your own, and support in implementing a practice.”
Individual Coaching
Laura M. - Principal Broker/CFO
“Your technique felt intentional and focused on the whole person, not just the workout.”
What brought me in
“What originally led me to reach out was wanting to work on my overall health and strength - not just physically, but mentally as well. I was looking for something that would help me feel stronger, more balanced, and more confident in my body, while also giving me a healthy outlet mentally.”
What stood out
“Your technique felt intentional and focused on the whole person, not just the workout. I felt like you could provide a calming, supportive, and safe environment where I could challenge myself without feeling overwhelmed or judged. That combination really stood out to me and made me feel like this was the right place to start.”
What it’s like to work together
“You genuinely listen and take the time to understand where clients are both mentally and physically. From there, you tailor a program specifically to their individual needs, helping them grow, feel stronger, and become the best version of themselves.
“The biggest concept that has stayed with me is the importance of the weekly check-in. It’s not just about how the workouts are going or whether I’m exercising consistently—it’s about checking in with myself as a whole person.”

Anonymous Client
“The connection between breath, mind, and body helped me become calmer and more present.”
What brought me in
“I originally started working with Lauren looking for health benefits. The biggest change was learning about the emotional and mental benefits—the connection between breath, mind, and body. I have become calmer and more present.”
What changed
“You will have a tool chest of ideas to handle stressful situations. They will remind you that your breath is always there and can be called upon.”
What it’s like to work together
“Lauren has been a very meaningful part of my desire to grow and have an enjoyable journey. She is very knowledgeable in many subjects and is a genuine guide. For more than a year, she has trained me to look to breathwork to find my purpose and deal with life’s challenges.
“She can and will guide you, but the results are based on your commitment. I believe that anyone who is interested can find greater peace and a better understanding of themselves by working with her.”
Corporate & Team Experiences
Melody Bradley - Sylvamo HQ Facility & EHS Manager
“We can’t stop talking about it!”
What the team needed
“I was hoping to show our employees the importance of slowing down and how a tool like breathing can improve their physical and mental well-being.”
What employees carried forward
“I’ve been consistently hearing employees talk about using doorway breathing! They’ve been sharing the resource link with other colleagues and reminding people to slow down and breathe in and out through their noses. I love hearing them remember what they learned.
“They’ve brought it up in other meetings, and it was just lovely to know that it resonated.”
Would you recommend the experience?
“I would 100% recommend this experience to other teams and organizations. As organizations show that employee well-being is a priority, this is a practical and useful tool that employees can learn and use throughout the day to boost their mental clarity and emotional resilience.”
