I’m Lauren Killey, founder of the Built Different Society and online Coach. My community and platform helps women build the body, mind, identity and life they want and others’ told them was too unrealistic to achieve.I’ve been a coach for the last decade, focusing on one on one work with my clients, helping clients achieve big goals like body transformations, lifestyle changes and competitions. But, changing to the founder of a new company, and an educational platform which expands far beyond my usual coaching, and delves into identity reconstruction and full integration of learning to transform the lives of my cohorts of clients, group coaching and self-devised learning has been a BIG shift. It meant coming to terms with my own identity shift as a coach into a facilitator and leader of change and creating something that has never been done before.Naturally, stepping into the unknown meant big challenges, feeling like an imposter in a lot of ways and struggling to truly accept and share my own healing journey. This was holding me back when it came to finally, properly stepping forward in my new role and understanding exactly the direction I needed to take my new company.Nicki changed the direction of my business through the insights she offered - we delved deep into why I was doing what I was doing, what I wanted to create and the impact it could have. We were able to tap into the emotions that were driving my passion, my past and how this was showing up as a part of the present obstacles, working through the limiting beliefs and self-doubt that were stopping me from taking leaps forward.We realised I wanted to build the home I had always needed growing up, that my shift from coach to founder and facilitator was allowing me to change the lives of so many more people by creating the safe space I wanted when I was going through my own journey - a place for those who never quite fit in. The reframes Nikki offered, along with the reflective prompts and in-depth discussions led to new ideas, perspectives and me being able to level up not only the concept of my platform but step into my new self, confidently.Nikki offered clarity of direction when I truly needed it, saw where I was limiting myself and pinpointed the areas I needed to reflect on to ensure I didn’t stay stuck.I cannot recommend these sessions enough. I left every single one, speechless, jaw on the floor and having had incredible realisations about myself. There was laughter, tears and I truly felt seen, which is such a rare thing.Sometimes we need someone in our corner who truly believes in us, in what we are building and gives us the direction we are missing - that is exactly what Nikki does, to an exceptional level. I can’t wait to continue the work with her in the future.
