Lauri grew up playing school and office in her grandparents’ basement and hasn’t stopped learning (or organizing) since. Her experiences abroad, academic accomplishments and professional growth satisfied her love of learning for a time, but the deeper she delved into corporate life, the more she longed to explore new directions with her heart as her guide. Oh the places it led! Like coaching. And acting. And writing. And motherhood – the most beautiful of right turns that allowed her to rewrite aspects of her own childhood, heal, and befriend herself in the process.

Lauri believes people are naturally creative, resourceful, whole and complete. Through curiosity, deep listening and holding compassionate space, she helps people access their innate wisdom. Lauri is a certified McLean Meditation and Mindfulness teacher, a certified Dr. Sears Health Coach, and a CTI Life Coach. She lives in Santa Barbara California with her head in the clouds, her feet on the ground and her heart wide open. Most weekends she can be found on a golf course with her family or online guiding a meditation. Find out more, here www.swellheart.com
