About

My mission is to help bring diverse voices to our public spaces.

Hi, I’m Laura

As a documentary filmmaker, I reached a point where realized I couldn’t tell all the stories I wanted to tell.
At the same time, I saw creative humans like me who had a burning desire to make a difference in the world but experienced blocks to showing up and sharing their work.
Maybe this is you?

We are not taught how to share our own ideas. Instead, we’re taught to know the correct answer, to fill in bubbles.
If you’ve decided to embrace a creative life, there is no one right answer. You have to define your own path.
That can be unnerving. It can feel awkward. It can bring up self doubt.
And so we seek formulas and models.
But the way forward is to go inside, to find your own voice, and translate your vision into a story designed for impact.

I turned my method of finding my own voice into programs to help artists and purpose-driven entrepreneurs find their voice and design their stories for impact.

Design Your Story for Impact

Find Your Voice and Share Your Story

Get Clear

Get clarity and decide. Remove roadblocks. Determine your next best step. We make change one step at a time.

Create Impact

Find your authentic voice and create impact. Your story is the foundation of everything you do, both the story you tell yourself and the story you tell others.

Expand Reach

Develop your platform. Aligning your messaging with your beliefs allows you to show up with confidence and ease.

Story Consulting

“I struggled from breaking down the steps to own my story and how I help the world. It [Find Your Authentic Voice] broke down the core myths, beliefs, and misconceptions about finding your voice and gave simple and manageable exercises that were amazingly powerful. It was designed for success.”

— Jette, Coach and Author, Find Your Authentic Voice participant

“Working with Laura was a delight. I felt seen and heard and never a burden as we splayed out all the parts of my message. Her feedback was invaluable. It got me out of years of mulling over my message by myself by having reflective feedback on what was landing and what wasn’t. I was surprised at how quickly we shifted through almost two decades of “work” to find the gems. The best part… I now have a succinct core message that captures the through-line of all my work and I can confidently share it with others.”

— Maritza Luz Vega, Health practitioner
