The Love Approach Project

What happens when life doesn't go according to plan?

Understand yourself. Trust yourself. Meet life differently.

The Love Approach Project

We can't always choose what life brings us.
But we can learn to meet it differently.

What happens to you when life doesn't go according to plan?

Not only when something big happens.

What about the ordinary moments when something doesn't go the way you expected, someone reacts differently than you hoped, there's too much on your plate, or an old pattern suddenly shows up again?

Do you recognise yourself in any of these?

The work isn't about becoming someone else.

It's about understanding yourself well enough to recognise what's happening, access the resources you already have, and make a more intentional choice about what happens next.

It's learning how to stay connected to yourself while life is happening.

Because awareness creates choice.

Meet the founder

I've been asking this question for more than a decade.

The Love Approach Project began in 2014 from a very personal exploration of what helps us come back to ourselves when life doesn't look the way we thought it would.

Since then, that question has followed me through my own changes, years of coaching and facilitation, and countless conversations with people navigating the beautifully messy business of being human.

And one thing I keep coming back to is this:

We don't need to become perfect at being human.

We need to understand ourselves well enough to recognise what's happening, have resources we can reach for, and trust ourselves to meet what comes next.

I'm Laura Gutierrez, founder of The Love Approach Project.

Ways to work together

Different doorways, the same intention.

12-week 1:1 coaching program

Energy Management Program™

Energy Management isn't about having more energy.

It's about developing a different relationship with where your energy goes.

Over 12 weeks of personalised one-on-one support, you'll understand the patterns consuming your energy, strengthen the resources available to you and build the self-trust to meet challenge, change and uncertainty differently.

1:1 Coaching

Support for what's happening now.

Sometimes you don't need a whole program. You need space to explore what's happening, understand what might be sitting underneath it, and find a way forward that feels right for you.

Personalised 1:1 sessions drawing on Emotional Fitness coaching, behavioural awareness, breathing practices and sound to support you with whatever feels most present.

Just Breathe™

Sometimes you don't need another answer.

You need some space.

Just Breathe™ is a monthly experience using breath, sound and intentional pause to step out of the noise, reconnect with yourself and access the internal resources that can be difficult to reach when life gets loud.

No fixing. No performing. Just space to breathe, notice and come back to yourself.

Become Magnetic

What changes when you become someone you can truly rely on?

An ongoing community for strengthening your connection with yourself, building real self-trust and creating evidence that you can show up for the things that matter to you.

Not by becoming perfect — but by learning to listen to yourself, follow through on meaningful commitments, come back when you wobble and recognise the evidence of who you're becoming.

What people say

"Laura is one of those genuinely special people you meet in life. She is incredibly good at what she does, but what really sets her apart is the care, compassion and love she brings to her work. I couldn’t recommend Laura and her practice highly enough. Whether you’re going through a difficult period, looking for clarity or simply wanting to better understand yourself, I believe she can make a real difference in your life or help point you in the right direction. Beautiful person, beautiful energy and genuinely great at what she does. If you’re thinking about booking a session with Laura, do yourself a favour and make that appointment. You won’t regret it."

John Hansen

"I have been working with Laura for over 3 years now. Her practice has made an incredibly positive impact in my life, as I have navigated various challenges over these past few years. I continue to work with her regularly, and I highly recommend her to anyone genuinely willing to go within and face yourself."

Benjamin Federman

"A close friend of mine gifted me an introductory session with Laura in June (’26). I was a bit apprehensive at first (“the love approach... really!??) but after only a few minutes, I felt at ease & conversation flowed. Im a 53, twice divorced with more than a few skeletons but I love a good chat & it came easily with Laura. She’s warm but professional, definitely knows her craft & will leave you feeling stronger, emotionally, physically & spiritually. A great find. I’ve had subsequent sessions with Laura & have become firm friends. Highly recommend. Thanks Laura!"

For organisations

How your people understand themselves changes how they work together.

When people can recognise their own behavioural patterns — and understand that other people may think, communicate, respond and make decisions differently — something shifts.

Difference becomes easier to navigate.
Communication becomes more intentional.
People take greater responsibility for how they show up.
And teams have more capacity to work together when things don't go according to plan.

What a Discovery Call looks like

Video coming soon

A good place to start

Let's have a conversation.

Sometimes when you're right in the middle of something, it can be difficult to see beyond where you are.

A Discovery Call gives us some space to look at what's happening for you, what you're experiencing, and explore some of the possibilities or options that might be difficult to see from inside it.

You don't need to know what you need before you come.

You just need to be willing to have the conversation.

Real stories and honest conversations about what happens when life doesn't go according to plan — what those experiences reveal about us, what helps us navigate them, and who we become along the way.
