A Wise Person's Gathering

March 3, 2013
Yesterday I hosted a Wise Person's Gathering for a young woman who's 25 years old and feels confused about her career path. There were five of us there to brainstorm with her and give her our best connections. What a gift to see her go from scared and blocked to excited and hopeful. It took very little effort on the part of the rest of us, and made such a big difference.

Do you know anyone who needs a creative boost in their life who you could host a Wise Person's Gathering for? It will give you a boost too -- when we encourage others to go for their big dreams, we get encouraged too!

When you want to run away from your job

November 15, 2012
A client emailed me this morning with this: 

"I'm having one of those days where all I can think about is getting out of the life I'm living...
mostly because of my job and my feeling of unimportance.
I want to run away."

Here's what I emailed back:

"Some tips, if you feel like trying them:

Be a spiritual beacon for everyone around you, sending out pure love and acceptance in a 40 foot radius.

Take a co-worker to coffee and find out more about them.

Do a task with the intention of doing it immacu...

Stress Relief Video: Kathleen's Six Intense Things

November 2, 2012



When I coached Kathleen about the pain in her body and what it might be connected to, she talked about all the intense situations currently going on in her life. We counted them and they added up to six. We used EFT meridian tapping to release the stress around having all that stress!
Kathleen went from a 7 (on a discomfort scale of 0 -10 with 10 being the most discomfort) to a 4 in one round, and was actually laughing by the end of it when she realized the absurdity of constant...

Saying "I Quit"

October 11, 2012
One of my clients came to our session last night and said, "Guess what -- I quit my job!" Her face had a big smile on it and there was creative energy pouring off her. She hired me several months ago to help her figure out where her career was going. We did several sessions on releasing her stress around a particular co-worker who was tormenting her.

When we first started coaching, we did a Core Values Assessment -- and "freedom" turned out to be one of her top values. We then talked about ...

At The Woman's Club

August 18, 2012


Last Tuesday I got to lead a Stress Relief workshop for 100 people at The Woman's Club of Minneapolis. The building the club is housed in is a historic, very elegant place full of wonderful people and excellent food!

I heard a lot of stress around issues like physical pain and illness, worry about family members, and grief over the death of a spouse. I taught them how to use EFT meridian tapping and we saw a lot of the stress dissolve or at least lessen.

I love sharing this tool with people b...

Major melt-down

July 25, 2012
I worked with one of my favorite clients today who was in the midst of a major melt-down. She dared to take a vacation with her girl-pals and came home to everything in her household being out of control. She was weeping and apologizing at the same time, but I told her, "This is my favorite material to work with because there's stuff here that's blocking your career success."

And I meant it. I love melt-downs. It means that we're ready to make a change -- our old way of looking at ourselves i...

Cruelty At Work

June 29, 2012
I worked with a client recently who wanted help stepping back from her crazy all-hours job so she could focus on her family. Our coaching helped her choose a consulting position and now she has the perfect blend of flexibility in her life.

But some former co-workers she still does business with have a condescending attitude towards her. She felt very frustrated by this so we did some EFT meridian tapping around it. She got to release her fears about not being high enough in the pecking...

What is stress relief coaching?

At some point in our lives, we all experience stress -- it could be in our career, our health or our relationships. There’s often a feeling of loss and helplessness that makes it difficult to take the actions that will lead to feeling better. Coaching can help release what's blocking you so you can move through stress and get back on track with your life.

You might hire me because you are:
• dreading going to work every day
• dealing with a chronic health issue like weight gain
• experiencing conflict in a close relationship

I gently help you deal with external and internal blocks using tools that have worked with hundreds of clients.

Laurie is a stress relief coach who has helped hundreds of clients with their career, health + relationships. She's also an international workshop leader.

How does coaching work?

I offer a free sample session so we can decide if we're a good fit. If we are...

... we do an initial 3 hour discovery session. We start with a Core Values assessment. Your Core Values are a snapshot of you, and can be used numerically to make decisions. As your coach, I look at your list before each coaching session to see if the choices you're making line up with your values. If they don't, I call it to your attention so you can reconsider.

Next we do a Perfect Life Vision wheel. This helps you know where you currently are in relation to what you most want. Knowing how you'd design your life if you had no constraints helps us develop your Success Contract.

Your Success Contract is three goals you want to be held accountable for meeting, with an end date for meeting them.

Our coaching sessions are all about what happens when you take actions toward your goals and perhaps get stuck. For example, my client D. found that when she voiced her dream to someone who was less than enthusiastic, she felt deflated and unable to take further action. We were able to look at the underlying belief ("I'm stupid and naive") and look at all the successes she'd had in spite of having that feeling. We did some EFT Meridian Tapping and cleared the blocks out. This allowed her to move past other people's opinions and do what she wanted to with her career and her life.

We celebrate your success.
