Kia Ora, Im Loren
Breathwork facilitator. Life coach. 3/6 Projector. Aquarian sun, Taurus rising - built for depth, not decoration.
I’m not here to tell you to just “raise your vibration” and call it a day.
I'm here for the real work - the kind that happens in the body, in the breath. The kind that unravels old stories and brings you back to yourself.
0.1 Plot
The life I thought I was going to live…
From my first few years living on Great Barrier Island with a bonita banana box as a carseat to growing up in West Auckland I was the creative kid. Did fashion design at Uni to working in the wardrobe department in film to event management.
I thought I would work in some kind of creative field, have two babies by 30 and spend summer holidays on islands with my little loves and dream man by my side.
02. Sub Plot
There was always a subplot.
The pull toward the mystical.
The fascination with women's cycles.
The moments when my body seemed to know something before my brain did.
The strong inner knowing theres more than what our eyes can see. The unseen and the seen almost conspiring together. Theres so often subtext beneath what people are saying.
Then there was breathwork.
From that very first breathwork session I WAS HOOKED!
Within that state of expanded awareness I found a tool to not only help me process and let go of so many plot twists but also a way to create an even deeper, unfuckwithable connection to my intuition.
03. Plot Twist(s)
What I didn’t see coming…
The very sudden and wildly destructive divorce in 2013. The first half of the relationship was great. Where I went wrong was ignoring the very loud NO I felt when he suggested we elope the next weekend. So when I found myself arriving home from the airport after being in Melbourne for my Nana’s funeral to find he had just moved out of our home without a conversation I was shocked but impulsive people can be shocking.
I didn’t see Mum getting cancer in 2020 or that I would have a rare and aggressive breast tumour later that same year. I won my battle - my Mum didn’t.
There was that one time I was fired from my job at a lawyers office in Melbourne over a $650,000,000 mistake - thats the correct amount of zeros - and it absolutely was not my fault. Makes for a good story and was the last time I worked for someone else.
Plot twists can have a sting at the time but can hold insanely powerful lessons for us.
04. The Happy Ending
Now I guide others back to themselves through breathwork, coaching, and teachings that draw on somatic practice, cyclical wisdom, and Te Ao Māori. It's grounded, it's real, and it works.
I’m equal parts grounded and cosmic.
A little bit witchy, a little bit wellness nerd.
A twice published author - both books about reconnecting to menstrual cycles - multiple award finalists including Spiritual Coach of the Decade and thousands of lives affected… and I’m just warming up!
Because you’re not here to be palatable, pleasing, or perfect.
You’re here to be powerful. Wildly, divinely, unapologetically you.
I can tune in so easily. I can feel what is true for me and I have a deeply connected relationship to my soul
My whole life people have told me things they've never told anyone else - sometimes things they didn't even know they were carrying. I used to find that isolating. Like I was seeing a truth no one else could see, calling out the thing no one else would name.
I know now it's a gift. And if you're here, there's a good chance you know exactly what I mean - you feel things deeply, you read rooms without trying, and you're done pretending you don't.
Something tells me you might relate to be highly sensitive and attuned to how others feel too.
Looking back I see how I’ve always been the one having deep conversations, supporting others and curious about how much better it can get. Maybe you can relate?
I’m all about integrity, heart-led leadership and more interested in the long lasting ripple effect.
My business has evolved from holding sold out women’s circles, coaching clients 1:1, facilitating breathwork for thousands of humans across Aotearoa, Australia and beyond, teaching yin yoga, holding weekly holistic sessions at a private live in rehab retreat and holding online course. I’ve published books and been a finalist for multiple awards. And I feel like there's been a constant deepening of my craft.
Heres what I believe in
-
Our bodies are wiser than we give them credit for. When we understand what our nervous system is doing and why, healing stops being a mystery and starts being possible.
-
I'm trauma-informed, I research my teachers, and I take it seriously that people choose to bring their hard stuff to me. Integrity isn't a value I list — it's how I run the whole thing.
-
I don't know everything. I never will. When something's outside my scope, I'll say so — and help you find someone better suited.
SOME THINGS ABOUT ME
Aquarius Sun, Capricorn Moon and Taurus Rising, with both Mars and Venus in Aries. My chart is pretty balanced with air, fire, earth and water placements.
I’m a 3/6 emotional Projector in Human Design. Which means I’m here to GUIDE energy and teach from a place of lived experience and trial and error.
I’m happiest out in nature, bare feet on the earth, in the ocean and feeling the warmth of the sun on my skin.
Travel and adventure are so important to me, I would go back to India, Nepal and Bali in a heartbeat and have Bora Bora, Hawaii, Italy, Spain and Africa on my vision board.
