"Branding work is familiar territory for me, but during a pivotal business transition I needed someone else to guide me through my own branding journey. Essence exceeded all my expectations. The process was both grounding and empowering. Starting with the brand questionnaire helped me build strong foundations, but working in community was the true magic. Being surrounded by soulful, supportive women made me feel inspired, challenged, and uplifted throughout.

Essence has been genuinely transformational in how aligned and confident I now feel expressing my work. I’m deeply grateful for Lauren’s guidance, and for the depth and care she brings to holding others in their visions."

“Essence came along at the perfect time when I was thinking about refreshing my online presence, but more than that, it helped me contemplate more deeply the purpose and mission, the values and the work I wanted to share beyond simply being visible. It was the ideal balance between thought-provoking and fun, with exactly the right amount of supportive guidance and encouraging community. Yes, of course, it was a delight to indulge in the creative play of searching for imagery, colour palettes, and fonts, but the process of pulling all of those together into a cohesive brand was both enlightening and empowering. It's a process I'm continuing to develop and refine as I move forward in my heart work, with tools I know I'll revisit as my brand - and I - evolve. Thank you Lauren, in Essence you've created something truly transformative.”

“I recently completed Lauren's 6 week Essence Branding programme and cannot recommend it highly enough to those looking to initiate or expand their branding soul-led work.  Lauren is a creative and brilliant soul and her insight and guidance helped me tap into my creative side, gain clarity on my direction, and start shaping a brand that truly reflects who I am and what I want to create in my business. Her detailed guided videos, calm mentoring style, and space holding calls and meditations gave me the freedom and space to plan, visualise, and confidently step into the next chapter of my career.”

“Going on this journey with Lauren to create my brand and website has been an absolute joy. I am so grateful to have had Lauren guide me on this process to birth my business because she has such a heart-lead approach. It has been a real exploration of how I want to show up in my business, how I want to feel and how I want others to feel. It’s has been the perfect foundation to start from. I am absolutely delighted with the brand and the website. It has felt like a true collaboration, a co-creative process. I would highly recommend working with Lauren to anyone who runs, or want to create a heart-led business - she is the perfect mentor and guide to have on the journey.”

“Essence was a beautiful experience, it really nurtured my heart work seeds, and brought to life my vision of how I wanted my business to look and feel through branding. I felt very held throughout the whole process, both by Lauren and the other wonderful women on the journey with me. It was a lovely pace that gave both accountability and support. I have since joined Lauren’s group website building course and working through Essence first has made the design elements flow so much easier. “

“Essence is more than a course about developing a brand and vision. Lauren created a safe and open container for inspiration and deep soul exploration. The group element added an essential component, providing accountability, support and fun. During the course, I unraveled insights and ideas that transformed my business and enhanced my future offerings. I am grateful for Lauren’s unique blend of heart, souls and technical support.”

“Lauren created a soulful offering with The Hearth. This unique course provided the technical skills to publish a Squarespace website, yet offered a deeper layer of opening and inspiration that surprised me. Lauren wove her unique gifts of holding space and support along with her website design approach. I appreciated the community element that added an essential layer of depth that enriched the experience. During the process, I found inspiration, my voice and home on the internet.”

“I absolutely loved my experience as part of the Essence. I felt guided and supported from beginning to end by you, and the rest of the group. I found the prompts deeply insightful in exploring the true essence of my work and how that looks and feels. It was an honour, a privilege and inspiration to see everyone else's Essence journey unfold, it felt like a very natural and co-collaborative creative space. Even when I felt I hadn't made huge progress during a week, meeting with you and the rest of the group gave me a sense of direction and clarity. It made me realise that this work is so profound and magical when undertaken in community. Thank you for sharing your expertise and guiding us so beautifully, and to the rest of the group for their enthusiasm and support.”
