Described as the poster girl for positive affirmations by one of her clients and the proud owner of the nickname ‘Smiley' from a young age, health coach Lauren Chandler is a shining and leading light in the health, fitness and wellbeing industry, showing others how to live out loud.

To Lauren, good health is the equivalent of happiness. Growing up with many health problems and injuries as a result of a diet high in junk food, rock bottom self-esteem and a wacky gait and posture, it took a life changing turning point that Lauren calls her ‘emancipation' to begin to identify with who she really was and develop her self-confidence.

Lauren had so much help, love and support during her discovery of health, fitness and wellbeing and experienced such a higher level of vitality, happiness, confidence and growth in all areas of her life that she felt the need to pass it on, or ‘pay it forward' as the saying goes and so is now helping others find their true self and live a healthy life full of happiness.

Apart from health coaching, Lauren is a passionate rock climber. To Lauren, climbing creates a sense of freedom; the freedom to be herself, push her boundaries and to grow as an individual. She also loves the freedom being outside in the natural environment brings. Rock climbing is a creative sport and an awesome form of self expression through movement. It is challenging, a test of character and a phenomenal buzz!

Lauren has developed so much as a rock climber and achieved what others deemed impossible for her. Lauren's success inspires her to continue growing and confirms that anything is possible. Her outlook on life is now always bright and positive.
