My Approach

The world is becoming increasingly uncertain and complex.

We are living through a time of profound transformation. Climate change threatens humanity. Wars, political tensions and social fragmentation create the stability of our societie. Innovation accelerates, often faster than our capacity to adapt.

At work, the pressure intensifie. Artificial intelligence is transforming professions. Burnout and mental health challenges are rising. Our attention is constantly hijacked.
Expectations — social, professional, cultural — quietly pull us away from what feels true and meaningful.

One thing is clear: the only constant today is change.

In this landscape, as a leader, you are asked to decide faster, adapt continuously, inspire others and remain emotionally stable, often without the space to pause or reflect.

Most leaders, like you, were trained to perform, not to navigate uncertainty, protect their attention, or lead with authentic and grounded presence in times of complexity.

WHY COACHING?

Coaching provides a necessary space.A place to slow down, regain perspective, and strengthen what AI and technology cannot replace:

  • the ability to focus deeply

  • the capacity to discern what truly matters

  • the regulation of emotions under pressure

  • the ability to lead with meaning rather than reactivity

  • the cultivation of real, human connection

  • the reconnection with yourself: your values, your sense of purpose, and what you truly want, beyond external expectations and constant comparison


Through coaching, you shift from: overload, stress, constant urgency and doubt

And you move towards: clarity, discernment, confidence, motivation and aligned direction.

Coaching helps you develop the human skills needed to thrive and to make your leadership and career truly future-proof.

Her ability to listen and ask impactful questions was crucial, cutting through the noise and getting to the heart of the matter.
    Now, I am moving forward with clarity and purpose, I believe Laure’s support was pivotal for my career."

    Laure was always enthusiastic and inquisitive, supportive and caring but also challenging when needed."

FAQs

  • A coaching session is primarily conversational, but it can also include relaxation exercises, visualization, writing, movement, and other techniques based on your needs and the challenges you bring to our sessions.

  • While the different approach can be complementary, coaching, therapy and mentoring are distinct.
    Therapy often focuses on healing past traumas, whereas coaching is centered on the present and future, helping you identify your goals and the resources available to move forward with your challenges. Coaching also differs from mentoring; my role isn't to tell you what to do or give advice, but to support you in making the changes you desire and guiding you toward the direction you want to take.

  • Clients often describe me as supportive, structured, challenging and practical. I adapt my approach to each client, depending on their needs and goals during each coaching session. I am genuinely passionate about what I do and fully committed to the success of my clients.

  • We begin with a free 30-minute "chemistry call" to get to know each other, discuss your challenges & objectives and go over logistics and fees. You can consult the Fees & Contact page to learn more.

  • Don’t worry if you don’t think you fit in one type of coaching (career, leadership, etc.) as each coaching programme is different and will be designed around your specific needs.
    Also, I encourage you to approach our work with curiosity, honesty and an open mind.
    It's also essential to recognise that you are the only one capable of knowing what is best for you and to be responsible for making changes in your life. While coaching sessions can be very enlightening, most of the work happens outside of our sessions, by taking action in your day to day life.
