It was an extremely powerful experience to have co-facilitated the Joy-Laughter session at the Old Age facility with Lauren. Her contribution with play was wholesome, enriching and she clearly knew her subject. She was very impromptu with her creativity, upon seeing how challenging some situations became due to the limitations of the participants. We are grateful to have had this opportunity to personally work with Lauren, and hope to get more chances. Love, Husein & Kamal.

I have co-created a workshop with Lauren and it has been a fun and dynamic process. Lauren is creative and full of resources, her energy motivates you to get moving and create!! She also loves taking charge of content for social media, something I'm not very good at! And she also adapts to changes, to each person's rhythms and ideas, and her energy brings freshness and ease to everything we did!! Looking forward to more cocreation my sister!! Lots of Love

Absolutely wonderful session... Consciously guided by Lauren who put me at total ease throughout the process. This was my first experience of Deep Creative visualisation and I am grateful I had such a knowledgeable, gentle and patient person to assist this transitional journey. It was a profound and enlightening regression and I would recommend that everyone embraces this process at least once in their life. Thank you Lauren for creating such a safe space for me. Deep gratitude.

The workshop with Lauren was incredible - she creates and holds such a beautiful and safe space. The morning was a much needed pause and the reflection that Lauren led helped me a lot to find more balance and come back to a more grounded self. So grateful to have met her and the rest of the women - what a stunning community!

Lauren’s adventurous, easy going spirit made for a relaxed experience which flowed naturally on the day. When co-facilitating you want to work with this woman, no fuss + positive energy = collaborative cohesion 🙂

A privilege to work with, Lauren has a peaceful, inviting energy, and her manner is focused, yet adaptive. She achieves the perfect balance between holding space for others to creativity explore, while simultaneously offering a gentle leadership to others on the path of discovery. Passionate, wise, and warm Lauren has the unique ability to curate space, to forge connections, and facilitate openness in those around her. As a mentor, or colleague, Lauren brings her unique brand of wild and magic into every environment; I could not recommend her highly enough.
