Hit by a car whilst out on a morning run and thrown 30ft, I sustained terrible injuries and faced the fact that I might never walk again. 21 surgeries, so far, and more ahead, I am slowly being rebuilt with titanium but I’m not just surviving, I’ve learned to thrive!
Despite countless setbacks, my recovery each time has been an inspiring journey of self-discovery and understanding of the power of personal strengths. My achievements have been remarkable and life changing.
I believe so passionately in the extraordinary impact of personal strengths that I coach tirelessly to help people understand their unique power and potential.

Your path is as unique as your talent. Let’s discover it together.
As Steve Jobs said: “ We’re here to put our dent in the universe; otherwise why else even be here”.
With years of successfully elevating business leaders and teams across the globe, Laura thought her life was on track but a shattering accident suddenly brought that life to a halt and redefined it in unimaginable ways.
In this compelling account, Laura takes us on her deeply personal journey of defying expectations, to beat all the odds. Rebuilding her life with renewed purpose, she demonstrates that we do not need a superhero gene to be resilient and overcome hardships in our lives.
Describing her roller coaster of triumphs and disappointments along the way, Laura helps us recognise that resilience is rarely a simple act of “bouncing back” but instead, a determined effort and process to climb our way back up each time we are knocked down.
It is through these difficult times that Laura helps us discover our hidden reserve of strengths to develop resilience and she provides tangible steps to help us to regain control of our life.
Struggles and loss are unavoidable; but rather than succumb, Laura illustrates that we have the resources we need to meet our challenges head-on and that life becomes more meaningful when we know what we live and stand for.
With her tenacity and zest for life, Laura’s story inspires us to find our inner strength and to choose to flourish.
"Setbacks are unavoidable"
"Many people suffer setbacks; they are unavoidable. Laura teaches us that responding effectively to these is not a factor of genetics but of mindset. Her inspiring story and guidance on approaches to resilience, gives hope and help to everyone. If you only pick up on one of these insights and truly embrace it, you will find yourself in
a better place."

"Passionate, personal and powerful"
We hear about the power of the mind but it’s only once in a while we see it in action.
At a time where many people need to be more resilient than ever, this book is amazing. I couldn’t put it down.
Passionate, Personal and Powerful.
Laura nails it.
