The Roots of My Guidance
My guidance is rooted in the lived knowing that healing, clarity, and purpose emerge naturally as we remember how to listen to and build trust with our own Inner Guidance.
My path as a guide was catalyzed at an early age and continues to evolve as I learn and grow. My journey began with horses in the world of show jumping where I rode and competed at an international level as well as working with students of all ages.
After living in secrecy with bulimia and alcohol and drug abuse for the majority of my life, life took a radical turn in 2018 when I was initiated into my journey of addiction recovery. After spending the first 29 years of my life feeling like I didn't belong, this journey provided the (albeit rough) terrain for me to find home within my own body.
This experience demanded that I question everything I thought I knew and to shed the stories and beliefs that had been keeping me imprisoned.
My process was supported by Human Design as a logical and practical framework, woven together with more esoteric modalities such as plant medicine and various forms of energy work that moved the conditioning that was stuck in my body.
Slowly, the limiting and distorted perspective that had once dictated my life was burned down and alchemized into one rooted in awareness, curiosity, and playfulness.
In 2020, I was invited to work for a psychedelic startup as their first full-time Integration Coach, Experience Guide, and Integration Circle Facilitator. In tandem, I dove deeply into the study of Human Design and the realms of the unseen, both experientially and academically.
As my personal journey of awakening deepened, so too did my authentic desire and availability to guide others in a more personal way. Invitations naturally arose to offer guidance using Human Design as a framework, allowing me to transition out of the corporate world for good.
In 2021 I sold all of my belongings and spent 3.5 years traveling in Central and South America. I knew I needed to get to the source of the scarcity and displacement I felt and remember my wholeness.
During this time I came home to myself - realizing that home is first a state of being.
I hold a profound love and appreciation for the many ways all living creatures, including humans, expresses themselves. My guidance is grounded in organicity and curiosity, with a present and non-violent approach to becoming.
I know that each of us are inherently unique and feel deeply curious about what the world might be if we move beyond the monoculture and more of us feel empowered to express and live unabashedly as ourselves.
I'm a human, helping other humans feel more at ease in their humanness.
In sessions together, Human Design is used as a supportive framework to speak to you in your own language - directly to your unique frequency.
It is not used as a rule system that seeks to force outcomes or define you, but as a way to support awareness as you cultivate connection and trust with your own Inner Guidance.
Fun facts: I feel most at home by the river, surrounded by flowers, trees, birds, and bees—and my love language is nourishment. Start any sentence with “I’m curious to get to the source of…” and you’ll immediately have my attention.

"Laura took me through a wonderful journey of self exploration, understanding and new perspectives. She created a supportive and comfortable space for us to dive into Human Design. The process and feedback was insightful, inspiring and a surprisingly accurate description on my inner world. It gave a practical viewpoint to make sense of aspects of myself which have otherwise been difficult to identify and make sense of. A most valuable and time well spent session with Laura, I’m really grateful."

"Laura was very thorough and knowledgeable. I appreciate the amount of study she has done around human design, her dedication and passion is evident in her readings. Like many people, I was familiar with my human design, by using an app to determine my profile. It wasn't until I sat down with Laura that the keys hidden in my design began to unlock a deeper understanding of who I am and what gifts I'm meant to bring forward during these times.
Learning who you are is part of remembering who you are meant to be. Laura's reading provided a greater understanding and awareness of my inner workings and mission."
