There was a time in my life when I was asked why it was so important to me to that I achieve success. I realized in that moment that my ability to have choices is how I would measure my personal success. I also knew in that moment that in order to have choices, I needed to have wisdom.

My name is Lauren. Life 101 is a labor of love that evolved from my professional and personal experiences. I am the former CEO of a private postsecondary college, a licensed court reporter, realtor, entrepreneur, and I have a huge passion for personal growth.
I am the mother of 3 amazing children. My youngest and oldest are 20 years apart, so I’ve been doing this mom thing forever! I’ve also been part of traditional education forever. I have observed firsthand how life skills, wisdom, and preparedness are not part of traditional education. This is why I am truly passionate about Life 101 changing lives.
I have been sought for counsel untold numbers of times over the past 20 years. I’ve relived the same story over and over again. They, just like me, launched into adulthood without being prepared. They, just like me, did not have the tools nor the wisdom to lead the way.
Although I have achieved success in so many aspects of my life, I consider Life 101 my ultimate achievement. I, 100%, believe in its power to significantly Change Lives by providing the wisdom necessary for others to create amazing lives too.
The fulfillment of Changing Lives by sharing my life-long wisdom is second to none!
