Hello, I’m Dr. Lauren.

Clarity is Your Power. Let’s Build Your Career with Confidence.

For early-career women ready to stop playing small and start building strategic careers rooted in purpose.

My Approach

Grow with Dr. Lauren isn’t about hustle or hype. It’s about strategy, clarity, and freedom.

You’re not confused because you’re incapable — you’re overwhelmed because the path was never designed with you in mind.

That’s where I come in.

I combine research-backed strategy, lived experience, and real-world results to help you move from “figuring it out” to owning your next move.

Why Work With Me?

I’ve supported hundreds of women and learners as they moved from stuck to clear, from burnt out to bold — not through motivation, but through intelligent, identity-centered design.

My approach is grounded in:

  • A Ph.D. in Educational Leadership and deep expertise in equity-centered strategy

  • 10+ years as an educator, researcher, speaker, and student success advisor

  • Experience as a UX researcher focused on what people actually want

  • My journey as a first-gen Black woman who turned barriers into blueprints

And I’ve developed the PATH Framework to help you do the same.

The PATH Framework

A signature process that helps you:

  • Position yourself with power — by owning your story

  • Agency - Advocate for your next move with confidence and voice

  • Translate lived experience into professional value

  • Horizon-plan your next chapter with vision and alignment

It’s not theory — it’s a clear, guided system to help you build a career (and life) that reflects your brilliance.

  • Over 200+ women guided toward academic & career clarity.

  • 10+ Years of Higher-Education Experience

  • People-First Approach

    For a more inclusive world

🌱 Core Values

1. Clarity

I believe that women—especially Black women—deserve to move through life and career with intentionality, not confusion. My brand provides the frameworks, strategies, and reflection tools that replace uncertainty with direction.

“We don’t guess our way through growth. We get clear, then we move.”

2. Empowerment

I am deeply committed to helping women see themselves as capable, worthy, and powerful—because we’ve lived through what it’s like to be overlooked and underestimated. My work is about reminding women that they are enough and already equipped to rise.

“I don’t create success for women—I help them uncover what’s already there.”

3. Equity

Whether I say it overtly or infuse it through my frameworks, my work is about justice—about helping Black women rise within systems not built for us. I provide culturally-relevant, affirming coaching that centers Black womanhood, without apology.

“We don’t just survive systems. We learn how to navigate and shape them.”
