Hey there,
I’m Lara
I’m an Aussie-born performing artist and ICF PCC–credentialed life & creativity coach — also an author and podcast host with over 25 years in the arts across London, Australia, and the USA.
Now based in Atlanta, I help artists clarify their identity, rebuild momentum, and create work that reflects who they actually are — not just what the industry expects.
My work sits at the intersection of artistic practice, psychological insight, and real-world creative careers.
.
Movement. Focused work blocks. Creative writing. Long walks. Making space for depth.
Coaching artists. Recording podcasts. Writing books. Raising my children. Dancing in the kitchen.
Hustle culture. Surface-level motivation. Pretending everything is fine.
Real conversations. Creative autonomy. Psychological depth. Doing the work that matters.
I’ve lived the full spectrum of a creative life — international stages, academic training, reinvention, relocation, and the quiet seasons that test your identity.
Somewhere between performance, higher education, and cross-continental moves, I realized something that changed everything:
Talent isn’t enough.
Artists need identity. Psychological resilience. Strategic clarity.
So I rebuilt my creative life from the inside out — deepening my training, earning my ICF PCC credential, and integrating decades of professional performance with evidence-based coaching.
Now I help artists do the same: clarify who they are, regain momentum, and build creative work that reflects their true voice — not just industry pressure.
I didn’t build this from the outside in.
