Featured Testimonial
"Lauren was a steady guide as I re-entered the workforce after time away, helping me through interviews, job transitions, and even a complete career change. Thanks to her expertise, I not only earned promotions (more than tripling my salary since starting our work together), but also became a high performer and respected colleague in my organization. She was always willing to help, from big-picture career strategy to the smallest details of my job."
— Glen G., Product Manager
How We Can Work Together
Every client is different, so every engagement is built around what you actually need, not a one-size-fits-all program.
Whether you’re an individual navigating your career or a you’re a small business owner trying to figure out your next move, we have an option for you.
A La Carte Services
Not every need requires a package of services.
À la carte services are individual, one-time offerings designed for those who know exactly what they need.
No longer-term commitment required.
Resume or CV Review
Your resume and CV are often a person’s or an organization’s first impression of you. Ensure that your first impressions are lasting and positive.
This service provides a thorough, expert review of your existing resume or CV.
Best for: Professionals who have an existing resume or CV and require edits or updates.
-
Regardless of whether you're updating a document you haven’t looked at in a few years, or fine-tuning it for a specific role, here’s what you can expect:
You'll submit your resume or CV, along with a brief intake form so I can understand your target role and goals.
From there, I'll do a thorough review covering:
Formatting, layout, and visual presentation
Strength of professional summary or objective
Content quality (For example, are you highlighting accomplishments or just listing job tasks?)
ATS keyword optimization
Consistency of grammar, spelling, and punctuation
Use of action verbs and quantified results
Relevance and alignment to target role or industry
You'll receive your original document with written feedback and annotations within 3-5 business days.
Depending on the condition of your document, this may include light in-line edits to illustrate suggested changes.
Please note: This service does not include a full rewrite.
Resume and CV Review (1-2 pages): $150
-
Longer documents require a different level of attention to detail. That's what this tier offers.
In addition to everything included in the standard 1-2 page document review, this service includes a live 30-minute consultation so we can talk through your career narrative, your goals, and how your document tells your story.
As with the standard service, you’ll submit your resume or CV with the brief intake form.
Your phone consultation will be scheduled within 1-2 business days of receiving your documents.
During the consultation, we will discuss my initial review and feedback in real time. Post-consult, I will complete a second-round of annotations and adjustments.
Your annotated document will be returned within 3-5 business days of your initial consult, so from start to finish, this service will typically take 4-7 business days.
The review covers all the same elements as the 1-2 page offering, plus:
Depth and organization of expanded sections (publications, research, teaching experience, professional affiliations, etc.)
Narrative arc (Does your document tell a comprehensive story about what you’ve accomplished and what’s next for you?)
Section prioritization based on your target role or field
Strategic positioning for career transitions or advancement
Please note: As with the standard tier, this service does not include a full rewrite.
Resume and CV Review (3-5 pages): $275
Sometimes you just need to talk something through.
The Individual Strategy and Advice Call is a single 1:1 session for the person who has a specific question, challenge, or decision to make.
Whether you're weighing a career change, navigating a difficult situation, or trying to build a strategy to help you reach a goal, this call gives you the dedicated, expert time you need without an ongoing commitment.
Best for: Professionals who need focused, experienced guidance on a specific challenge or decision without a longer engagement.
Individual Strategy or Advice Call
-
This is a 1:1 session held via Microsoft Teams.
No long-term commitment required.
60 Minute Session: $175
Package Services
Many professional goals require more than a single conversation.
Package services are structured engagements designed to provide ongoing support, accountability, and meaningful progress over time.
MentoringMentoring is short-term, focused, and practical. It’s built around whatever you’re dealing with right now: a tenuous work project, adjusting to a new role, a situation you're not sure how to handle…Whatever you need.
With the mentoring option, we spend 4 weeks discussing options, coming up with practical solutions, and implementing expert guidance and advice for immediate use.
Best for: Professionals facing a specific and/or immediate challenge who need experienced guidance and a sounding board.
Sometimes you just need someone who’s been there.

Asynchronous Services
Not everyone has the time, nor bandwidth, for additional calls.
Asynchronous coaching is a flexible format that allows you to access guidance through voice and text on your own schedule.
These services are also a great fit for those who do prefer to communicate through writing, prefer to process information before responding, or maybe just find messaging to be more comfortable than video calls.
These offerings are ideal for those who need support that fits into their life, not the other way around.
New Leader Check-InThe transition into leadership should be one of the most exciting times in your professional life.
The asynchronous New Leader Check-In offer is designed for professionals who are new to a leadership role, have been recently promoted, or are stepping into management for the first time. This offer provides a steady, knowledgeable leadership partner to help you find your footing. Through Voxer, you'll have access to experienced leadership coaching without the need to schedule calls or carve out blocks of time.
Best for: First-time managers, newly promoted leaders, and emerging professionals moving into a leadership role for the first time who need low-friction support during their transition.
Career Navigation Support-
Each week, you'll receive a short, focused prompt to help you reflect on your progress, identify what's working for you, and help to get ahead of any challenged.
Send voice messages or texts at anytime. Perfect for unfamiliar or murky leadership challenges, questions, or situations that come up throughout the day or week.
Responses are provided within one business day (OR LESS) during specified business hours.
Please note: This offer does not include live calls or sessions. If you need a more comprehensive leadership development program, a coaching package would be a more appropriate fit.

How I Work
Coaching and consulting are crowded spaces.
My approach is different because it is built on servant leadership, which means one thing above all else: my success is measured by yours.
That philosophy shows up in the way I run every engagement.
You may notice that my pricing is below industry average. This is by design.
I firmly believe in making coaching and consulting services available to those who may not normally have access to these services due to cost.
(and why it matters)I’ll tell you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear.
Honest feedback is a kindness, not a criticism.
Everything is tailored to you and your needs.
No pre-planned solutions. I'm here to listen, ask questions, and help you build something that works for you.
I believe in transparency.
Which is why you’ll find my pricing listed on this site. Your time is valuable, and so is your trust.
I meet you where you are.
There is no judgment here, only the desire to improve and move forward.
About Me
Hi, I'm Lauren, and I'm so glad you found your way here.
I've spent the past 20+ years supporting people and businesses in their growth. My career has taken me through small and mid-sized law firms, into Fortune 500 companies including Cisco Systems, Johnson & Johnson, and PNC, and into contracted sales roles serving clients like Apple. Along the way, I've worked across legal, finance, operations, and technology sales, with each role helping to shape my knowledge on makes people and organizations succeed.
I hold a B.A. in Organizational Development and Leadership and an M.A. in Organizational Leadership. My formal education has truly given me the background needed to help you succeed. That being said, some of my most valuable education has happened in the workplace where I navigated real challenges, led real teams, and figured out what actually works when the results matter and the money is real.
Today, I bring my combination of academic knowledge and hands-on experience to individuals and small businesses who are ready to grow, improve, and move forward. My approach is collaborative, honest, and non-judgmental. I'll meet you where you are, and I'll be in your corner every step of the way.

For mentoring clients, these plans are designed to help you tackle a specific challenge and start seeing results quickly. It’s a fast, strategic way to move forward with purpose.
For coaching clients, some experience shifts in mindset after just a few sessions, while others see tangible outcomes over a longer period. If you're ready to engage fully, you'll likely start noticing progress (whether in confidence, decision-making, or strategy) within the first few weeks.
For consulting clients, improvements are typically seen in efficiency, revenue growth, team performance, and strategic vision around the 90-day mark. This is why a 90-day package is the shortest term consulting package offered. We define success collaboratively and track progress throughout the engagement.
Regardless of which service you are receiving, our role is to help you define what “results” mean for you, set realistic milestones, and support you in taking consistent, aligned action. While we can't promise overnight transformation, we can promise a process that’s intentional, personalized, and focused on sustainable growth.
Let’s Have a Conversation
Your first step is simple: a free, no sales, no pressure conversation. We’ll talk about what’s going on, what you’d like to achieve, and whether us working together makes sense for you.
There’s no hard sell here, only an honest discussion with someone who genuinely wants to help you figure out your next move.
