discover what’s beneath the surface
I help people and businesses redesign their work around more creativity, adventure and meaning.
About coaching wild
Coaching Wild was set up by me, Lara Hayward, to help people bravely redesign their lives, work and businesses to incorporate more adventure, creativity and meaning.
My approach
Rooted in nature, movement and creativity
Coaching Wild is built on a three key premises. That when we move outside, we often step into new ways of thinking. That human, wildlife and planetary health are interlinked and thriving ecosystems support us all to live, work and feel better. That creativity is an innate human quality.
Finding your own path
In these changing, confusing and uncertain times, what we know about work and life is shifting. We don’t know how things are going to be and can’t predict them. Through walking, connection with water, observation, reflection, and deep conversation, I help you reconnect with your own strengths, values, and possibilities creating a skillset that supports you through uncertainty.
Whether you're navigating change, seeking direction, or redesigning your life, our work creates space for insight, confidence, accountability and purposeful action.

Lara’s exemplary knowledge, delivery, and manner were tailored to meet the needs of our participants during our series of women’s health and menopause workshops. Lara took the time to understand our needs and objectives and fulfilled delivery with outstanding feedback from us, key stakeholders, and most importantly, the participants. I highly recommend her as a coach and consultant.

She is strong on encouraging self-awareness, accountability, setting personal goals, and the importance of following what is interesting to you and making it viable.
