I’M LAUREN
Over the last 15 years, I have navigated the challenging waters being a high-achieving business woman and single mother of three. I have served as general counsel of many companies. I currently serve as Chief legal officer and data protection officer for Workhuman, a company leading the employee appreciation revolution.
Showing up with authenticity and owning everything that I am as a female leader, was the key to my success.
and you can do it too.
Strategic Leader.

Mother.
It doesn’t have to be lonely at the top. You have found an ally in me. Let’s create something together. It is time to elevate!
but it’s time to
stop
playing
nice.
We won’t see a more feminine approach represented in leadership until we as women dare to take inspired action. We must put real, tangible, action plans into place and make good decisions timely. We are not just dreamers, we are over-comers. The time is now!
It’s time to step into our true power, refuse to play small, and
Having it all,
owning it all

“Women must understand that their authenticity is their key to success. Our unique gift as women is our ability to empathize, be highly expressive, and create bonds. The ability to foster trust, empathy, community, and full expression is the foundational to a highly functioning team. But we can’t shy away from the part of our personality that is able to take inspired action and make things happen.”
