hello! So nice to meet you…

I am Laura Reese, a certified Gallup Clifton Strengths coach and I specialize in working with adults who are standing right where you are: capable, thoughtful, and unsure of how to turn that into a clear direction.

I believe that understanding your natural gifts and talents more clearly will make a real difference.

Because the truth is - you already have patterns of thinking, feeling, and acting that work. You’ve been using them your whole life. You just may not have the language (or confidence) to trust them yet.

What makes this different from typical ā€œcareer adviceā€

Most career advice tells you:

  • ā€œFollow your passionā€

  • ā€œTake a job to get your foot in the doorā€

  • ā€œYou’ll figure it out as you goā€

That can feel vague…and honestly, frustrating. What we do together is different. We’ll start with how you’re actually wired - your natural strengths - and build from there.

Not guesses. Not trends. YOU.

What a coaching session with me feels like

It isn’t a lecture. It’s a conversation - one where you’ll probably hear yourself say things like:

  • ā€œWait…I’ve always done that. I just didn’t realize it mattered.ā€

  • ā€œThat actually explains a lot.ā€

  • ā€œI’ve never thought about myself that way before.ā€

I’ll help you:

  • See your strengths clearly and how they show up in real life

  • Understand why certain environments energize you - and others drain you

  • Connect the dots between your experiences, choices, and patterns

  • Put language to things you’ve felt but couldn’t explain

  • And just as important…I’ll gently challenge the narratives that might be holding you back

what are my strengths?

I’d love to help you name your natural talents and gifts.
