At the age of 5, Lauren was literally thrown into a pool so
she would have something to do at her sisters’ swim meets. 17 years
later, with a high school state championship and a top 3 finish in
the Mid-American Conference, she said goodbye to a successful
swimming career. This foundation as a student athlete set the tone
for high achievement in the professional world.
After 15 years in HR, Lauren received her professional
coaching certification from the Institute of Professional
Excellence in Coaching (iPEC) to feed her passion for supporting
others in reaching their full potential. She started her business
focused on leadership development and career advancement, but while
watching the 2020 Olympic games it all changed.
As she watched Simon Biles remove herself from competition and
Katie Ledecky do everything in her power to hide her disappointment
following a lackluster race, she knew who she was called to serve.
Athletes. It was validated when Michael Phelps told the world,
"Competition is overwhelming. We just want someone to listen to us.
Someone to support us mentally through the pressure-filled
moments."
Lauren specializes in working with high school athletes to
master the mental part of the game. Her company, Performance
Reimagined, exists to show athletes there is an outlet to be heard,
seen, and supported mentally and emotionally at the same level they
are physically.
