Laura Haywood

​Authentic Life Coach

I passionately believe we don't have to feel stuck, lost or live in the past. We can live in a more positive and fulfilling way, improving life for ourselves and others around us.

I coach clients who have been through difficult experiences and now want to be free and in control in moving forward; who want to change how they see and feel about themselves and increase confidence and self-esteem. Laura also helps clients navigate change and choices in a healthier and more positive way.

Unknowingly, we can be held back by negative self-talk that and limiting beliefs. These can affect how we approach change and choices, whether we can move on from the past, and can lead to not feeling good enough, always pleasing others, saying yes when we really mean no, not valuing ourselves or feeling overly critical. Working with me can help you to dig deep and find who you truly are, what you really want and to let go of old beliefs and ways of being.

I am energized by coaching from a heart-based place, rather than simply working to the goal. This style of coaching can empower you to create meaningful and sustained changes in your life. I can help you see your blind-spots so you can positively re-frame the cycle of long-held limiting beliefs and patterns, inspiring you to have a different and more positive relationship with yourself, others and life.

I am an insightful, grounded, caring and challenging coach that helps you to nurture who you are today and embrace who you can be tomorrow.

I became a professional life coach after relocating to the US from the UK, where I was a therapist for many years. I am Head of Professional Integrity and part of the faculty for Raleigh Coaching Academy and an ICF (International Coach Federation) Global Member and a member of the ICF Raleigh Chapter.

Testimonials

I worked with Laura for 6 sessions and cannot explain how grateful I am for her help in navigating my self growth. She provided a welcoming atmosphere and challenged me to focus on parts of myself that I had neglected for so long. The amount of positive growth I made after working with her still blows my mind! And for that, I am SO grateful. Highly recommend!!

I had the opportunity to work with Laura for the past three months. She helped me discover a better vision for my business. I strongly recommend Laura as a coach and partner to see beyond the obstacles and realize your full potential.

You will be amazed at the talent Laura has, and how upbeat she is on a consistent basis.  She is insightful and supportive, but more than that, she is an excellent guide that helps to get you through challenging situations by discovering, reason and feel.  I’m happy to share what I’ve learned about Laura so that you may benefit from the wisdom Laura imparts. She genuinely is meant to be a Coach.
