Speaking Clients

Hi, I’m

Laura.

At age 8, I did my first aerial. I’ve been tumbling and turning things upside down ever since.

From competing on the Stanford Varsity Women’s Gymnastics Team to teaching in Ghana to serving on a Senate subcommittee to working with 500+ organizations to empowering 50,000+ leaders to become Wellbeing Multipliers to writing Workplace Wellness that Works, the go-to resource on how to spark a wellness movement, I’ve been helping teams and organizations to meet the moment through wellbeing.

All of this derives from a simple system I developed called The Multiplier Method, a leadership-meets-wellness framework, that has been proven to elevate wellbeing, increase engagement, accelerate productivity, and advance company culture.

“Laura has a knack for taking a topic we think we know and reframing it so that we see it through fresh eyes.”

LuAnn Heinen
Vice President, Business Group on Health
