I’m Laura,

I help you to rebuild your standards from the bottom up, so you don’t end up in another relationship that bleeds you dry.

As far as breakups go, my last one was a full-on life ruiner. It proper fucked with me.

Nothing or no one can prepare you for that kinda breakup.

The worst part is:

Nobody understands how much narcissistic abuse destroys you.

But I do.

Which is why I now help women, like you, stop self-abandoning and start boundary-ing—using body-based (somatic) approaches that actually stick.

Here’s how I can start helping you:

✔️ Craving your ex’s attention even though you logically know he’s bad news? I’ll coach you how to cultivate a better mind and body connection, so you don’t betray your own promises.

✔️ Scared you’ll fall for another narcissist? Validate your gut instincts with these 50 red flags.

✔️ Does saying ‘no’ feel selfish or scary? Learn my tips and scripts for setting and keeping your boundaries somatically.

**My journey wasn’t pretty (but it was oh-so worth it)**

I’ve spent the last six years doing the deep work—having countless face-palm moments like:

“Oh, the silent treatment was a tactic to control me!”

“So that’s why every argument somehow ended up being my fault!”

“Wow, the lack of empathy was a real tip-off too!”

So the guidance I give you, is deeply rooted in my personal experience. I’m not just copying lazy AI generated text. Or taking secondhand advice from so-called experts who haven’t even experienced narcissistic abuse themselves!

I’m always researching and staying up-to-date with how I can help you recover from your worst breakup ever too!

Because I know after …

💵 investing HUNDREDS in therapy,

📚 consuming every book on narcissistic abuse,

👩‍💻 certifying as a somatic trauma informed coach and narcissistic abuse specialist,

🤓 studying somatic EMDR, parts work and breath-work (I’m still adding to this list as I write this)!

🥋 And even earning my blue belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (no sorry, it’s unethical for me to offer to choke your ex—although imagine that service)!

… I know what works and what doesn’t.

Which is why I’ve paired all my hard-earned wisdom and lived experience into something bigger:

A practical, body-first approach to healing, that goes beyond just talking about boundaries, and teaches you how to feel them instead.

Why somatic work?

Narcissistic abuse wires you to distrust yourself. You override gut feelings, dismiss red flags and shrink to fit someone else’s agenda.

But it didn’t just start there…

Spoiler: it’s what came before the abuse, that paved the way for it.

Those earlier experiences—whether childhood dynamics, previous relationships, or cultural conditioning—created the perfect foundation for a narcissist to exploit.

And when you unpack those layers, you begin to understand and see what’s keeping you stuck.

That’s where I come in.

Because—newsflash—trauma lives in your nervous system too and it’s contributing to you feeling trapped in the same patterns.

This is why a cognitive approach alone isn’t enough.

You can intellectually understand everything about narcissistic abuse. And still find yourself falling for the same type of person, unable to maintain your boundaries.

But through somatic practices, you can:

✔️ Develop an awareness of your stress responses that keep occurring. So you can intervene to guide your healing process instead of feeling helpless when triggers arise.

✔️ Understand how your nervous system works and how it’s reacting to the trauma you’ve experienced. So you can recognise the difference between intuition and fear-based hypervigilance.

✔️ Guide your decision making through body sensations and cues. So you know what truly feels safe in a relationship versus what your trauma bond might be mistaking for chemistry.

This isn’t like talk therapy though.

Coaching is about taking action and moving you forward—not rehashing your past (read about the difference between somatic coaching and therapy here).

With my honest and relatable approach, I’ll help you get clear on what’s keeping you stuck. And what steps you can take to start moving forward.

You’ve spelt salt wrong…

I thought you might say that!

Let me explain:

I originally started this blog with my bestie, who’s also called Laura (LP) who’s also had a toxic relationship. But with a woman—female narcs exist too!

And the sea was one of our many childhood connections. Boy, did we love a dip and a bodyboard back in the day!

We’d be out in the ocean for hours; weeing in our wetsuits, belly flopping off our boards, burning our porcelain skin (*cough* LP)! And it was always the best time.

So when there’s two Lauras in the sea, the sea’s extra sal-lty!

Wait for it, there’s more…

Back in the day (not a historian so not sure how far back) salt was a cure for wounds.

You’d rub it into a wound and it would sting like hell. But healing would always follow.

Just like facing the effects of your abuse might sting at first before it gets better.

Because somatic coaching asks you to feel what you’ve been numbing out.

We work with what’s present for you today—the tension, the triggers, the knot in your stomach. And we salt it together, at your pace and with your nervous system calling the shots.

So I’m your sister who gets it, and I’ll never ask you, “why didn’t you just leave?”. Because (a) we both know it’s more complicated than that. And (b) thats a fucking stupid and insensitive question to ask!

3 Things you should know about me:

🛏️ My nightly ritual is slightly masochistic, but boy does it relax me before bed. Just 20-minutes every night and I sleep like a baby (check out my routine here)!

🏝️ I will always advocate for travelling—especially if it’s to get over an ex and involves a negroni (or two)!

😌 I’m so confident with my boundaries now, that I don’t give fake excuses when I decline invites. Just a simple “no thanks, cheers for including me though!”
