❝Inspiring Leadership coach like Simon Sinek: Wholesome brand of inspiration–listen for the ‘why’ people do what they do rather than ‘what’ people do.❞
❝Laura is a caring and encouraging coach. She coached me to understand that all the relationships are originated from the relationship with ourselves. This new thinking opened up a new window for me to understand love, trust myself, transform myself, and to have a renewed desire for love.❞
❝My journey with Laura was very interesting and an eye opener. Setting clear milestones and realistic objectives in my professional life helped me a lot to focus on my career development and track changes in my behavior and attitudes. I can certainly recommend Laura for her patience and pragmatism: her practical tips will remain forever!❞
❝The path of Laura and mine crossed during the Masterclass Adaptive Leadership Programme through the Center for Asia Leadership which involved personal and professional coaching sessions for participants. In the course of self-leadership sessions, Laura coached me on powerful mindful communication techniques. She shared principles of corresponding with others in mindful ways including setting an intention of being aware, non-judgmental and to treat with empathy. It’s been great learning from Laura! She is kind, inspiring, articulate, a great listener and overall, a really amazing person! Happy to have crossed paths with Laura!❞
❝My experience with Laura as my life coach not only helped me to gain clarity in my life, but more importantly enabled me to connect and get clear on what was holding me back. Laura is a very empathetic coach who has the calm and grace to help weather those messy life storms that come up. I found that Laura was really great at creating the space I needed to help me focus on my goals.❞
