Lauri Kriva: Lauri's path has been anything but linear. After 15 years in global HR leadership roles at NIKE and Timberland, including six transformative years in Amsterdam, she followed an inner call into wide-ranging exploration—from voiceover work and acting to real estate, health coaching, and writing a children's book. Though she first learned to meditate at age 9, it was a serendipitous encounter during COVID that sparked her calling to become a teacher. Her meditation practice has profoundly transformed her life by awakening self-compassion, inner wisdom, and a deep sense of calm acceptance. Now a certified McLean Meditation & Mindfulness Teacher, CTI Life Coach, and Dr. Sears Health Coach, Lauri integrates practical insight with soulful presence to work with heart-centered people navigating transitions, facing impossible-feeling moments, or simply ready for more alignment. With compassionate curiosity and deep listening, she helps clients shine a light on what's no longer working and gently weave new awareness into intentional action inviting them to meet themselves honestly—wherever they are—with kindness and non-judgment. Her work is rooted in the belief that healing yourself is one of the most powerful ways to heal the world, helping people cultivate a life that reflects the truest expression of who they are. She lives in California with her husband and son, and can often be found out in nature, cooking, or on a golf course with her son and husband.
