Let us be your “Life Wife” - helping you tackle life’s complex personal challenges so you can pursue joy.
Life’s mental load takes a toll on us.
Between working, caretaking, and maintaining our own health and well-being, modern life wears us out. Bearing the mental load necessary to make life happen for our families comes at great cost:
To our health and the health of our relationships. We’re stressed, tired, and scrambling to keep up. We may even resent that our families don’t see, appreciate, or help with this burden.
To our goals. We can’t focus on our careers, our passion projects, or even self-care if we are weighed down by invisible labor. We are overwhelmed. We don’t know where to start, and if we do get started, we may quickly get bogged down with decision fatigue.
To our society and our world: The mental load is often divided unequally along gender lines. Often women are spending their precious time tackling their “must dos,” never having time to pursue joy or find fulfillment. The world needs our gifts and talents more than ever!
It’s hard to carve out space, time, and bandwidth to set goals or start projects - not to mention finish them. That’s where I come in.

Listen to what our clients are saying.
“Laura helped my wife and I pull off a vacation with our kids this summer. I can dream the dream and have the desires but I struggle with pulling the trigger, often due to decision fatigue, fear of the what-ifs, time to actually plan a trip that would fit the ages and loves of all 3 kids, the list goes on. Laura learned our schedules, more about our kids, and our budget and within 48 hours we had a spreadsheet of AirBnBs that were available the week we wanted to go, their pros and cons, price, and a link to book. Another tab had all the activities available at the place we were looking, costs, age or weight restrictions, availability, and links to book. This is the hand holding we needed. I can’t even tell you the stress this took off our plate and can promise you it was the catalyst to making our summer vacation “hopes” into a reality. Everything on the vacation was perfect. We sang Laura’s praises everyday of the trip!
Since then we have also had Laura review some plans with us on a house renovation we are starting. Her insights are so incredibly helpful and she thinks through options we hadn’t considered. She is practical, she is hilarious, wise, caring and will tailor her approach to your specific needs. If you’re on the fence pull the trigger and have a consult with her - I can nearly guarantee you will hang up with a warmth and trust that you weren’t expecting.”
