Bio

Lauri Smith, the Soulful Speaking Coach, is a speaker, the creator of The Vocal Presence Path® approach to soulful speaking, host of the Soulful Speaking Podcast, and the author of Your Voice Matters: A Guide to Speaking Soulfully When It Counts.

Lauri treats speaking as a spiritual practice that raises consciousness by healing old wounds, guiding us home to our true selves.

She envisions a world in which everyone shares the vibration of their soul’s purpose with the world through their voices and together, we reach global harmony.

Lauri can always see the soul underneath the static - which makes her really good at motivating people to fight their inner demons and find tremendous inner power.

From Good Girl to Wild Woman: Unleash Your Radiance

You were never meant to stay small.
If you’ve been doing everything “right” while quietly silencing your own voice—your true voice—this is your invitation to break free.
In this intimate, interactive session, soulful speaking and leadership coach Lauri Smith will guide you on the journey from “Good Girl” conditioning to Wild Woman sovereignty—so you can reclaim the full power of your voice and step into your embodied, radiant presence.
You’ll learn how to move through sensation, emotion, and energy—channeling them into your one-in-eight-billion presence.
This is a sacred invitation to stop dimming your light and start speaking from the core of who you really are.
It’s time to be seen, heard, and felt.

Unleash Your Presence: Stepping into the Power of Your Voice

You’re doing the work your Soul came here to do.

The world stage is calling for you to share your purpose in a bigger way. You want to awaken, energize, and move people.

But when it’s time for you to speak, you get OVERWHELMED by sensations, emotions, and energy. Your voice shakes, your throat goes dry, and your words fall on deaf ears.

You can’t express your vision when it matters most.

Fighting our inner demons while accessing our inner power isn’t easy — but it’s what we need to do if we want to do our part to change the world with authenticity, creativity, and courage.

During this interactive presentation author and intuitive public speaking and leadership coach Lauri Smith will show you how to use your perceived ‘flaws’ to your advantage and channel your sensations into the fire that fuels transformation.

You will learn how to step into your voice, unleash your presence, and connect with your audience on a deep and powerful level.
