Lara has spent most of her life in Education, either as a student or teacher. She especially enjoys teaching others how to navigate the challenges they face and her vision has always been to inspire and empower her students to make choices that allow them to explore their full potential. For 30 years Lara has truly explored teaching, starting out as a swimming instructor, working in some tough city schools, moving around to regional and district high schools, working in London and finally settling in the beautiful coastal South West town of Bunbury.

When her own children arrived, Lara made the decision to work part-time in order to have enough space in her life for what was most important to her, which was family. As a result, through her role as an Art specialist, she discovered a creative side of her which had been largely hidden. However, once again she found her passion and ability was less about the curriculum and more about working with students on their well being; helping them to find confidence and self-belief in order to overcome challenges that were in the way of their success and happiness.

Noting the rise in anxiety and general issues with mental health in students and parents, Lara took the opportunity to spend the last few years training in a number of modalities to help people overcome their wellness issues. In 2021 Lara made the decision to step away completely from teaching and created Sol Resonance in order to live in alignment with her passion to guide people to live their life in flow and develop the mindset, skills and beliefs that support them and allow them to shine from within.
