I see this life as a journey with so many stones to turn over. I’ve spent most of my time going big and learning the foundations of resilience through my own triumphs and failures. Over my career, I studied human behavior and developed people-focused resilience strategies and initiatives to address personal resilience, the climate crisis, natural disasters, socio-economic distress, and building core leadership. I’ve had the privilege of working around the world—advising individuals, communities, institutions, and nations on resilience-building.
At home in Colorado, my cup was filled outdoors—rock climbing, running trails, and charging down rivers. I spent 7 years as an emergency first responder on the Rocky Mountain Rescue Team—learning to operate at the top of my ability in life-or-death situations, to integrate other people’s emergencies into my daily life, and to persevere in demanding mountain conditions. I was fully engulfed in this lifestyle until traumatic injuries forced me to change most of what I identified with. I turned inwards, faced my shadow side, and experienced healing.
As uncomfortable as diving deep and ‘doing the work’ can be, I’ve found it essential to living a full, beautiful, integrated life. I dedicated 4 years to completing an intensive in Qi Gong and another 3 years apprenticing in somatic vocals, songwriting, and performing. For the past 12 years I have immersed myself in the teachings of the Presencing Institute, the Hendricks Institute, Breńe Brown, Internal Family Systems, Somatics, and Nonviolent Communication. I trained in Coaching for Transformation with Leadership that Works, India and I am an International Coaching Federation Certified Coach. My love for somatic healing led me to become a certified practitioner in Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy at The Embody Lab. Along this journey, I’ve learned to find ease—a gentler ‘middle’ way—one that fosters greater self-compassion and self-care, and ultimately guides me on a more authentic and meaningful path in life.
Building resilience creates these powerful shifts in how we experience our lives and in our capacity to show up in our greatness. One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is witnessing my clients emerge from their core Self and live embodied, free, and powerfully in the world.
My journey continues alongside yours,

Hi, I’m laura Seraydarian
MY Mission
A thriving future, where all people flourish.
My Approach
We are not separate from the world we inhabit.
Our inner lives and the larger systems around us are in constant relationship — shaping each other, influencing what’s possible, and guiding how we meet change.
When we tend our Personal Ecosystem with curiosity, honesty, and compassion, we don’t just change ourselves — we change how we participate in our work, our relationships, and the world at large.
This is the foundation of my work.
Philosophy
I believe each of us lives within a unique Personal Ecosystem that shapes our experience of life. This ecosystem is rooted in our early family systems, environment, and experiences, and is continuously shaped by our interactions with the world.
When we understand our Personal Ecosystem’s influence, we gain access to deeper agency — and a truer sense of who we are beneath the patterns of our lives. We start to see not only what we do, but why — and how our thoughts, emotions, nervous system, beliefs, and behaviors work together to create the life we’re living, and we begin to sense what wants to emerge beyond them.
Over time, I came to recognize that transformation unfolds through distinct pathways of growth — what I now call the 9 Pathways of Transformation. These pathways are not goals to reach or traits to acquire, but living dimensions of human development that expand as we do — places we grow into over time. They offer a way to orient ourselves within our Personal Ecosystem and move through change with greater clarity, coherence, and self-trust.
Transformation doesn’t happen by force.
It happens through awareness, relationship, and alignment — when we learn to listen to our system, respond with care, and make choices that honor who we are becoming.
COACHING Process
I support my clients in developing a deeper relationship with their nervous system and their Personal Ecosystem — the inner dynamics that shape how they experience life. By identifying adaptive strengths and transforming unhelpful patterns at their root, we create meaningful, lasting change.
We move through the process together as true partners. I bring compassion, presence, and steadiness to co-create a space where self-discovery and growth feel both safe and expansive. Our process flows with your individuality and emerging needs, translating insight into everyday life and integrating awareness into embodied action.
Your experience is uniquely yours. I hold a holistic view of your development, supporting you through reflection, refinement, and integration as your life unfolds — in your mind, body and deeper self. Together, we weave transformational processes, somatic practices, and systems-based understanding into a coherent path of growth — one that evolves with you and supports your long-term integration.
