What people are saying about working with Lauren
I would recommend a voice session with Lauren to anyone who is drawn to expressing themselves, even if they don't know why yet.
Simply connecting to your voice will open up a channel of creativity that you can't "think" your way into.
Lauren holds generous space for that and is willing to play in the poetry of the non-linear process.
I learned to be more playful and curious. I was inspired to trust myself more and be more confident sharing my voice.
How will I use this? I think that that awareness will be useful in everything I do going forward.
The benefits are life altering.
Lauren is an exceptional facilitator. She creates a safe and inclusive place to explore. Importantly, Lauren's sense of play can be felt in everything she does.
What a joy!
I left the session feeling much more aware of my voice than I was coming in - like I was more filled out from the inside. So the highlight was the awareness and attention on voice. I left the session feeling more embodied and less in my head about how I should sound and what I should say and what should be communicated through me.
I loved how vocal exercises were peppered in organically throughout the session.
Her insight into purpose versus trends was impactful and helped lead me in a direction that saved money and improved my audio quality.
I left feeling inspired and more confident.
Lauren's energy, enthusiasm and positivity was much appreciated and just what I needed. Her suggestions during the meeting and in the follow-up were very helpful. And the connections she helped make were very useful.
I could feel your brilliance and dedication just pouring out of the screen.
It was freeing. I think the more I do it, the free-er I will feel.
... perfect and foundational as it was. And so much cool information that was blowing my mind.
I absolutely appreciated this session and the follow up resources.
I loved diving into different techniques for understanding my voice and how to best express myself.
I felt more awareness between how much voice plays off of the walls, the room, how it feels in my body, and then I went to sing outside. I felt more bubbly and intrigued to learn more about my voice, not as rigid in thinking there was something I wanted to 'get to'.

Not only a joy to work with, Lauren is super passionate and educated in both voice and recording. If you are recording your voice for any reason, I highly recommend taking the time to understand your needs and the best tools with Lauren. |
Message From Lauren:
I decided to start my first podcast in 2022- a month after meeting my co-host and deciding to become creative collaborators. We created our show, Infinite Improvisation Podcast, working across international borders and time zones to share our passion for learning through creativity and music improvisation.
Today, I host a new show launched in 2024, Lauren’s Best, with interviews and solo episodes. After more than 15 years of voice coaching, I help fellow podcasters expand their voice power and grow as impact-driven entrepreneurs.
I speak at events about how to unlock the potential of our voices- through podcasting, writing, singing, sound exploration, speaking, expressive arts, or simply through our creative business communication.
I lead workshops, facilitate professional training, and guide people to connect more deeply with voice, creativity, and music- and one another.
I work 1:1 with creative entrepreneurs to support them in their personal and professional growth, from the technical details to the visionary flight path, combining what I’ve learned through almost two decades of music leadership and collaboration across art forms and producing work across mediums.
I'm a little different than you're typical voice coach, podcast producer, or singer…
