“A little bit about me!”
Hi! I’m Lauren Wolanski, and I'm an accredited professional coach as well as a public speaking and communication consultant. I assist clients in becoming confident and compelling speakers, communicators and leaders. I have worked with professionals across a variety of industries and companies including Instacart, Intact Insurance, JAAG Properties, Rogers Communications, Roseland Group, Scotiabank, and Shaw Media. Raised in Toronto, I am a graduate of the University of Toronto's joint program with Sheridan College for Theatre and Drama Studies, where I received an Honours Bachelor of Arts in theatre with a minor in English, and a diploma in acting. I received my coach training at ADLER Graduate Professional School, and attained my coaching certification (ACC) through the International Coaching Federation. As a member of the ICF, I am committed to upholding the highest standards of professional coaching.

focusses on helping clients create meaningful and powerful connections both in work and in their personal livesIt is incredible how the tools learned in theatre training can assist one in becoming a more compelling, articulate and well-rounded speaker.
In addition to coaching, I have spent the last eight years working as a teaching artist in Toronto. As the program director at Electric Moon Theatre Company and a teaching artist at Young People’s Theatre, I have created, implemented and taught arts education programs from the ground up. I have been lucky to lead theatre workshops and in-class programs in schools across Ontario, as well as virtually. Through my instruction, I strive to build students’ confidence, creativity and self-expression.
“Theatre and public speaking go hand in hand.”
My ultimate goal is to provide my clients the tools they need to engage, motivate and captivate their audiences or even just present confidently within a small group. With my teaching background, theatre training and work in the film industry I have gained the skills and knowledge to assist my clients in building their confidence and developing stronger communication skills. I look forward to working with you and helping you reach your goals.
