“IF YOU’RE NOT RIDICULOUSLY EXCITED ABOUT WHAT YOU’RE DOING, IT’S TIME TO CHANGE IT”
-LauraAura
I started my career as a graphic designer for the phone book (yep, that relic), but it didn’t take long to realize I craved more. In 2007, at 6 ½ months pregnant, I made my first gutsy move—I quit my full-time job to launch my first business, a branding studio called Worx & Co.
For years, I fought tooth and nail to keep that business alive. I poured everything into it—my time, energy, sanity—until I was exhausted, cash-poor, anxious, and resentful. The business I owned had started owning me.
Through years of deep self-exploration, therapy, and getting brutally honest with myself, I had a massive realization: I was building my life and business based on societal “shoulds” and a relentless need to please others. And that’s when everything changed.
I’ve done the work I now guide you through—and because of it, I’m a full-time Keynote Speaker + Coach, helping teams and individuals break through resistance and make the bold moves that change everything. I host a Top 100 Global Podcast, have been featured in WealthInsider, Yahoo! News, Amazon Music, and connect daily with 60k+ people who show up for my lovingly blunt guidance.
Creating a life and business you actually love starts with getting radically honest about the conversations in your head, owning the parts of yourself you’ve been afraid to fully embrace, and choosing to lean into temporary discomfort for lasting transformation. This is where freedom, clarity, and momentum explode.
My favorite part? Watching you come ALIVE again.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM ME
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM ME
intuitive guidance
I’m naturally intuitive which means I often pick up on what you’re thinking and feeling before you say a word. With your permission, I use this as a tool to help guide you back to your truth so you can move forward with clarity.
i’m direct – no fluffy bs
I keep it real – you don’t need smoke blown up your ass, you need clarity, direction, and realness to help you expand into your desired next chapter. I’ll lovingly call you out on your excuses AND help you find a solution that feels aligned with your goals.
accountability
The only way to see and feel change is to do the work that those changes require. I’m here to help hold you accountable while navigating the mental challenges that want to stop you. You’ll always know where and how to focus your time and energy.
unwavering support
You have big ideas and desires and I believe you can accomplish every one of them. I’m a cheerleader, a dream stretcher, and space holder. I will hold your desire while you unpack and realign and hand it back to you covered in “fuck yes you can” glitter when you’re ready to move ahead.

GUTSY IS MY MANTRA
Gutsy is silent strength and a bold move forward—the decision to be fully seen and heard, to build a life and business that fuel your true desires. It’s trusting yourself enough to take action, even when there are no guarantees. It’s standing up for yourself/others, taking the risk, and following your gut.
If it’s not a HELL YES, it’s a NO. Period.
Being gutsy is what separates the ones who go for it from the ones who just wish for it. Which one are you?
