When our voices aren’t heard, our talents are underutilized, our creativity and is stifled then dispassionate, toxic and chaotic environments emerge. Let’s say NO more and embrace innovative, inspiring and productive “People First Environments”, where our talents are celebrated and our voices matter.
For the past 25 years, my passion has been guiding people to empower themselves by unleashing their talents and purpose in the world!
IT’S TIME that We LOVE What We Do and Do What We LOVE! Are you Ready? Let’s Thrive!!
I am blessed with athleticism and was honored to coach my son’s basketball team. I taught him the basics and he practiced-failed-practiced, honed his skills and learned how to read the field (Basketball IQ). He was the league MVP (most valuable player) and 15 years later is still winning! Now, I coach others to be the MVP in their lives!
Family, Freedom, Courageous Truth, Play/Laughing, Happiness, and Passion to Live Big
I love love love to laugh – big from the gut laughs every day! Sadly, some days this is hard for all of us. One day, my daughter tells me, she thinks she is ugly, dumb and hates herself. I was floored! I never knew Kaylah felt this way. She was always smiling, kindness in a bottle, a spark of life, and lives to help others. I honestly, didn’t know what to do, my heart sank, instantly I felt like I failed her as a mother. I didn’t understand. Every day I told her she was wonderful and smart. She said, “I just say yes because I don’t want to hurt your feelings.”
Mind Blown – Heart Shattered – Eyes Opened!
My daughter was believing the hurtful lies others, feeling small and comparing herself to others, in addition, had some discouraging teachers; which ultimately became her truth. She said, “being called weird and dumb and having people not want to be around her made me feel worthless.” It’s amazing how words can rise you up or cut you down. I was a mother bear on a mission to empower Kaylah to love herself and know her worth. This is now a long and rewarding four-year journey and counting. Kaylah now uses coaching and listening skills and her self-esteem is through the roof. Kaylah handles a bully:
It takes lots of courage for ALL of us to ask for help and make big changes. We all need support and patience from family, friends, professional coaches, and ourselves. Kaylah is now 11 years old and asked me, “Mom, can you coach other girls like you did me who are full of shame, feel small, don’t like themselves, and think they are not beautiful or smart?” I was so proud and also amazed at her insight and caring for others. At that time, I was in a leadership program and had to do a partner project in the community. We knew we had to create an event that honored Kaylah’s vision. Dream Big events was born to empower middle school girls with confidence, speak life into themselves and others, plus, Live Big and Take Action. It was great success and all from a little girl being called “weird”.
I am Funny, Courageous and Speak the Truth – the Elephant in the Room! Not afraid to tell the Emperor he has no clothes, Brainstorming Innovative Ideas & Solutions. Sparking Brilliant and Productive Conversations, High Intuition and Emotional Intelligence to see beyond the words and to the true “why” of the person or group. I am authentic, competitive, empathetic, go-getter, and I see the possible not the impossible.
My learning journey includes Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from University of Michigan-Dearborn and loads of professional development and I will continue to learn and grow. This party is just getting started!

I can’t say enough about the exceptional growth I’ve experienced due to having Louria Lindauer as my Executive Coach for the past 5 years. Because of her attentiveness, passion and dedication I’ve grown from being a good supervisor to an exceptional leader. Over the years, she helped me enhance existing attributes and develop new ones which have enabled me to become a change leader. Moreover, I am now armed with tools which allow me to challenge personal beliefs/myths and remove toxicity within the work environments which I manage. Her positive influence can be seen not only in my own demeanor but those of my team members as well.
Louria is an outstanding mentor, coach and leader. She worked with my team at Intuit to help prioritize, break down projects and motivate our team to success. In addition, she provided any member on the team with coaching and mentoring whenever they desired. She removed roadblocks, broke down silos and aligned leadership to embrace cultural change. Take any opportunity to speak with her!
