Laurie Hawkins
Leadership Advisor
Laurie Hawkins is a transformational leadership advisor, international speaker, and founder of Hawk Inspired, known for helping high-achieving entrepreneurs, executives, and founders align success with soul. With over three decades of experience in sales strategy, business development, mindset coaching, and somatic-based leadership, Laurie blends bold strategy with deep inner work to guide leaders into their next evolution, where ambition meets authenticity and high performance is rooted in fulfillment.
Her signature approach integrates nervous system intelligence, identity expansion, and spiritual alignment with grounded business acumen. Laurie’s work supports those who are ready to grow their impact without burning out, and who want to lead in a way that feels powerful, purpose-led, and deeply alive. She is the creator of Ready for More, a 90-day transformative experience for women leaders, and the founder of The Expansion Room, a community devoted to conscious growth and unapologetic leadership.
Laurie is also the visionary behind The Wake the F Up Festival, a first-of-its-kind leadership experience that brings together soul, strategy, celebration, and deep connection. Her work has been featured across leadership events, podcasts, and retreats, and she continues to work privately with founders and teams who are ready to build conscious, scalable, and soul-aligned businesses.
Whether she’s guiding a CEO through her next chapter, speaking on stage, or leading a retreat in Bali, Laurie’s mission remains the same: to awaken leaders to their fullest expression, where personal growth and business success are no longer separate conversations.
