Lara Ray
CTA Certified coach
Since I was a child I've been aware of the character attributes in people that surrounded me. What I mean by that is, I've always been extremely observant of what people say and what people don't say. Taking notice of these things over my life has given me a great human character study to better see myself, and to see others.
In my youth, through college, and into adulthood,I studied and worked professionally in the performing arts. Using my abilities to study characters, I would adopt a role and honor who those people are in their story. I have found that I now can sit, hear, reflect, and feel others on a deeper level because of this 25+ year human character study.
After working on/behind/or in front of the stage, I stepped into the corporate world as a coach and leadership developer - a career in which I was told I had remarkable transferable skills. In this world I focused my time on developing people, shining a light on their irrefutable skills, coaching teams to world class results, partnering to develop and enhance the corporate bottom line, and also advocating for the self-growth of employees. This was definitely some of the most rewarding work in my life thus far.
Through my corporate work, I began attracting people seeking my coaching skills for reasons other than the corporate-focused agenda. People would knock on my door to receive coaching on general freedom seeking issues. It was teased throughout the area that I was the "Bermuda Triangle", because people would come sit at my desk and find themselves wrapped up in seeking help for various personal situations. I was more than happy to be the Bermuda Triangle for people to benefit their freedom and growth.
I've been coaching people through career promotions, divorce, trauma, and unspoken dreams for 10 years. I get life from watching others conquer their dreams and overcome setbacks that once paralyzed them. I champion people. I champion your healing. I champion your road to living your truth.
