THE HOW
A three-month course and group-coaching experience with Lauren Carlisle Brown, The Emotions Coach
Create what you want, without abandoning yourself along the way.
You probably already know a lot about what to do.
You’ve read the books. Listened to the podcasts. Taken the courses. Saved the posts. Bought the planners.
You may know the actions that could grow your business, support your health, improve your relationships, change your finances, or finally move that dream out of your head and into your life.
You know The What.
But knowing what to do and actually creating it inside your real, complicated, emotional, ever-changing life are two very different things.
Because eventually, you’re left asking:
Okay...but how?
How do I stay consistent when the excitement wears off?
How do I keep going when life starts life-ing?
How do I know when to stay the course—and when something genuinely needs to change?
How do I work with my emotions instead of constantly fighting them?
How do I create what I want without sacrificing myself or everything else that matters to me along the way?
That is The How.
Enrollment closes September 9, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. Eastern.
What if you were never the problem?
When someone else’s strategy doesn’t work for you, it’s easy to assume the strategy is right and you’re the problem.
I know what I need to do. Why am I not doing it?
Why can’t I stay consistent?
Why do I always get in my own way?
Maybe I’m not disciplined enough.
Maybe I need more accountability.
Maybe I just don’t want it badly enough.
So you find another strategy. Another expert. Another planner. Another set of rules.
And you try even harder to make yourself fit the plan.
But what if the plan was missing something essential?
You.
Your needs.
Your capacity.
Your responsibilities.
Your emotions.
Your desires.
Your environment.
Your support.
Your wisdom.
Your unique little spark.
These aren’t inconveniences you need to overcome in order to follow the plan correctly.
They are information you need in order to create a plan that actually works for your life.
You are not the problem standing between you and your goal.
You are the essential ingredient that has been missing from the strategy.
Welcome to The How.
The How is a three-month course and group-coaching experience designed to help you create a personalized, evolving formula for pursuing what you want while remaining deeply connected to yourself.
I’m not going to hand you another rigid rulebook.
I’m also not going to tell you to simply “trust yourself” and leave you alone to figure out what that means.
I’m going to give you a formula.
And together, we’re going to discover what that formula looks like for you.
Inside The How, you’ll learn how to:
Build an Exquisite Self-Care Foundation that supports you while you grow
Discover your emotional fuel and create Your Fueling Why
Create consistency through self-compassion instead of shame
Build a Personal Game Plan around the life you actually have
Hear, honor, and follow your desire
Recognize when your emotions are asking you to Take the Pause
Adjust, recover, and return when life inevitably changes the plan
The principles are consistent.
Their expression is personal.
Your consistency may not look like someone else’s consistency.
Your plan may need more structure—or more freedom.
You may need more support. More rest. More novelty. More privacy. More community. More beauty. More adventure.
There is no universally correct mixture.
There is the mixture that supports you in creating this particular goal during this particular season of your life.
I’ll give you the formula.
You’ll bring the magic.
Bring the goal. Learn the process.
You’ll choose one meaningful goal to use as your learning laboratory throughout our three months together.
It could be a:
Business or financial goal
Health or body-composition goal
Relationship goal
Career goal
Creative goal
Personal-growth goal
Home or lifestyle goal
Dream you’ve been thinking about for years
Your goal matters.
We want tangible movement toward the thing you came here to create.
But we’ll also pay attention to how you’re creating it.
Are you learning what actually supports you?
Are you recognizing sooner when something isn’t working?
Are you asking for support?
Are you adjusting instead of abandoning everything?
Are you recovering more quickly after difficult days or weeks?
Are you creating forward movement without shame being your primary source of fuel?
Because The How isn’t only about creating this goal.
It’s about learning how to work with yourself so you can carry that knowledge into every goal that comes next.

And you certainly don’t have to shame yourself into starting again.
Bring it to the coaching.
We’ll look at what happened, what changed, what you need, and what your emotions might be trying to tell you.
The goal isn’t perfect consistency.
The goal is learning how to listen, adjust, recover, and return.
And yes, you’re allowed to fall behind.

“This handbook was exactly what I needed as a mom of a 19-month-old who can never seem to find time for herself. Most days, I’m running on empty and putting everyone else first, but this handbook helped me slow down and actually see what fills me up.
I loved how gentle and grounding it felt. Instead of another checklist of things I “should” be doing, it walked me through rediscovering what truly feels nourishing for me. It reminded me that self-care doesn’t have to mean hours away or a big routine, it can be as simple as finding small, meaningful ways to connect back to myself in the middle of the chaos.
I finished it feeling calmer, lighter, and more hopeful!”
