GUEST BIO:
Founder of Ivy League Sisters, Lauren Balukjian helps high-achieving women break free from perfectionism and people-pleasing to wake up each morning with their whole body shouting "HELL YES!"
Following the American Dream playbook to a T, Lauren checked every box: Ivy League degree, Division-1 athlete, college sweetheart marriage, tech startup marketing executive, four kids, bi-coastal living, and two homes—all before 35.
She was thriving, until a single moment turned her world upside down. Facing a bitter divorce, losing both homes, and navigating single parenthood led Lauren down an unexpected path of awakening.
Now a CTI-certified Coach, Lauren teaches women worldwide how to play full out through her Ivy League membership community, blending art and science to help them harness their secret weapon for attracting life's best possible outcomes.
