Stop solving.
Start designing futures.
Future Self Design™ for Coaches is a 3-session live training that transforms how you coach — from reactive problem-solver to architect of lasting identity change.
You're a skilled coach.
But something keeps getting in the way.
You leave sessions wondering if you actually moved the needle — or just helped someone feel better for an afternoon.
We had such a breakthrough session… and then next time we were right back at the same issue.
My client knows exactly what they don't want. But when I ask what they do want — total blank.
I feel like I'm getting trapped in the story. Every session circles back to the same narrative.
I'm working harder than my client in these sessions. Something's off, but I can't name it.
What if the goal isn't to solve the problem — but to make the problem irrelevant?
Future Self Design™ is a proprietary coaching methodology built around one insight: your clients don't come to you just to fix things. They come to find out who they are without the thing that's holding them back.
Where your focus goes is where your energy grows. The question is — where is the energy going in your session?

What coaches actually said.
Direct from session recordings — unscripted, unedited moments of breakthrough.
I realized I have more intuition than I thought. I was second-guessing myself after asking a scaling question — but then I realized I really didn't have to ask that follow-up. The intuition was right.
Once it clicked, everything just fell into place. I'd been asking the questions pointed at the problem. This completely changed what I needed to work on.
I love giving myself permission to let go of the template. To feel more like a conversation and less rigid — but still staying within the core competencies. I didn't know I could do both.
I've never had a training ask us to think about the environment first. It really helped frame everything that came after. I left session one with three things I'm using right now.

Lauren didn't create Future Self Design™ from theory. She built it after thousands of hours of coaching sessions — noticing where coaches (herself included) got stuck, where clients started looping, and where the real transformation was being left on the table.
The result is a framework that's rigorous enough for ICF accreditation and flexible enough to feel like improv. Every cohort is capped at 8 coaches — Lauren is in the room the entire time, coaching, demonstrating, and giving live feedback on your sessions.
