Today we’d like to introduce you to Lauren Fonvielle

Hi Lauren, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?

I had a career in corporate marketing. If someone would’ve told me ten years ago that I’d be doing holistic healing work, I probably would have laughed! But, it has been an amazing journey to get here.

Life through some curveballs – sick family members, 3 deployments ( my husband just retired from 20 years in the U.S. Navy), and a whole lot of anxiety along the way. I didn’t have the tools at the time to acknowledge, sit with and ultimately move through all of the emotions that I was feeling. This resulted in me having panic attacks. They were brutal, and really scary. This is what kick started my interest in different healing modalities.

This led me to becoming a trauma informed yoga instructor, sound healer, reiki practitioner and EFT Trainer. I explored all sorts of different modes of healing. And that is something I will ALWAYS encourage my clients to do too. See what works for you, see what feels good. Follow the nudges. Take a class, sign up for a session, read the book or watch the documentary you are being drawn to – trust that there is a reason you are being called to these things.

When I was introduced to EFT, it was a real game changer for me! I could drastically feel the difference in my body both physically and emotionally. I had to learn more, so that is exactly what I did! This ultimately led me to becoming a certified practitioner, and most recently a Trainer, so I can share this practice and teach others how to implement for themselves and their clients.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?

There have been a lot of bumps along the way, but all of it has made me a stronger person. Leaning into all of the healing modalities is what helped me successfully navigate the most recent deployment, which left me home caring for our two young children. But it was through that experience that I learned how strong I truly am, and that if I put my mind to something, like changing careers and starting my own business, I can do it!

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?

As an Integrative Energy Practitioner, I meet people where they are in their healing journey. I share a variety of different healing modalities with them, and see which resonate the most. I specialize in the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). This is a practice that helps people feel their feelings, and release what no longer serves them. I’m so proud and incredibly grateful to have the honor of guiding and helping people navigate the many levels of healing available to them.

I’m an empath that can easily tune into my client’s feelings. I believe this really helps me better serve them offering different practices and approaches along the way.

We’d be interested to hear your thoughts on luck and what role, if any, you feel it’s played for you?

That’s an interesting question. I do think that there have been times that I’ve been in the right place and right moment. Maybe it’s luck, or maybe it’s alignment. I think perseverance has served me well. There’s nothing more important than getting clear on what I want, and simply going after it!
