Break Complacency with Lauren Hope-Cleveland

10/23/2025

This is a photo of me at CTP #44. June 2004. I am 22 years old. I remember this photo being taken. It’s been a long time since I have seen it, because it lives in a photo album (yup, that old). I took a picture with my phone to be able to use it in an upcoming talk.
I don’t remember why I don’t have my shoes on, but it’s not important.

I have been asked to speak at numerous events in the last little bit about my experience as a corrections officer, mental health, and about wellness for first responders.

It’s super interesting and healing to look back on my journey. As difficult as it was and sometimes still is - I would not change a thing.

To this day, I’m curious…if I knew what I was signing up for would I have done it anyway?
The answer is probably.
I like a challenge. I like uncertainty. I like excitement. I am kind of relentless when I put my mind to something.

Life is wild. I am grateful for all the opportunities, adventures, and memories along the way.

Speaking at the Helping the Helpers Conference this weekend. So excited to share my story and connect with other first responders.

If you’re a female business owner juggling all the things—emails, clients, family, and that never-ending to-do list—then you need to know about this game-changing strategy.

Batching content simply means creating your content in focused blocks of time rather than scrambling every day to post something just to stay visible.

Here’s what batching can do for you:
• Eliminates stress by giving you a plan (no more “what do I post today?” panic).
• Reduces overwhelm by turning content creation into a manageable, scheduled task—not a daily scramble.
• Sparks creativity because when you’re in the zone, ideas flow and connect more easily. One idea often leads to five more!

You don’t need to be “on” all the time to stay consistent. You just need a batching system that works for you.

On May 12th, I’m hosting a 90 min online live workshop to show you how to create tons of content from just a few ideas. You only have to it couple of times and you will be set for months. Join using the link in my bio.

Trust me—future you will thank you.

I have been doing some private workshops for different business groups. I have delivered this one 3 times in the last couple of months - and everyone loves it. It’s easy, inspiring, and fun.

“I loved it and learned so much. I have posted everyday since the workshop. I have been over complicating social media for so long. Lauren makes it so simple and fun” - workshop participant

I don’t love social media (my IG account reflects that) but I love to brainstorm, collaborate, and make life easier for business owners.

You will need to do a little bit of homework and show up ready to work for the 90mins, but you will leave with more than 💯 specifically content ideas and tons of resources and supports to make social media so much easier than you ever thought.

The cost is $79. May 12th 7-830pm MT
Here is the link to join.

Hello Calgary!
Did you know that you can get Fresh Wife at Bridge’s Drug

If you have not used these products you are missing out. After going through cancer, I started looking for more natural and locally sourced products. This is one of my fav.

As the end of 2024 approached (quickly) - I began to thinking about my word for 2025. A ritual that I commit to each year.
I am a pretty decisive person, but the word thing always gets me.
Just pick a word Lauren.
WELLNESS is my word for 2025.
Spending the last couple of years working through some health issues - my idea of wellness has shifted. I have spent time learning and reconnecting with myself - and being open.
Bring on 2025 - I’m ready.

Boldly Being Breakthrough Online Goal Setting Workshop

December 16th and 17th 6-9pm (you will need to attend both sessions)
Please make sure that you block out the whole time- call it your early Christmas gift to yourself – feed the kids before we start, recruit someone to help these evenings, and get ready to have some fun. It will be work, but it will be so rewarding when you have this all figured out and ready to up in. This is the exact system that I use every single year to set myself up for success, get me out of my comfort zone, and stay focused on what I want to accomplish in this life.

“We have two lives, and the second one begins when we realize that we only have one.”
– Confucious

This workshop is all about you – re-discovering who you are and who you want to become. It is a huge gift that you get to give yourself for the year ahead. This is a time to re-energize and reset.

December 16th 6-9pm MT
In this session you will let go of the things that are not serving you. You will break down obstacles, focus on your strengths, and re-align with your values. This is where you will get to prioritize what truly matters for you. Acknowledge that patterns are keeping you stuck and a getting in the way of your desire results. Before leaving for the evening, you will start compiling some information that will allow you to create a goal for 2025.

December 17th 6-9pm MT
Using the information, you came up with – you will be inspired to create a goal. We will spend some time focusing on the WHY before moving into the HOW. You will create new standards for yourself that build confidence and have actionable steps that help you stay dedicated with passion and purpose.

This workshop will be something that you will want to commit yourself to every single year. Who we become when we get crystal clear about our passions and our purpose are what makes our dreams come true.

This morning I was reflecting on 2024.
At first I felt a little bit of disappointment, but as I wrote it became evident that this year was so much less about doing and more about being. I have been in a huge growth phase since 2015 - accomplishing big goals, steeping outside my comfort zone, and taking advantage of opportunities.
This year - I stretched my body more often, spent more quality time with my family, and said no to the things that weren’t a “hell yes!”
Our family navigate a difficult situation that tested us to the brink but made us stronger and more resilient.
I am doing work that I am extremely passionate about, raising incredible young men, focusing on my health, and nurturing the relationships that mean the most to me.
This year allowed me to realign, rest, and build the capacity to step back into growth. I have no idea what that looks like at this moment. But f**k l’m so excited about it. So I know uts going to be epic.

Want to spend some time setting goals and talking about doing epic s**t? I’m hosting a Boldly Being Goal Setting Workshop December 16&17th 6-9pm Online.

It’s your job to decide what boundaries need to be created, communicated, and held to protect your peace.
Boundaries are tough.
One of my friends calls me the boundary queen 👸🏼. It took my a little while to figure out how got to be so secure in my boundaries.
Hmmmmm….. i guess it was from all those years as a corrections officer. Boundaries are massive. Don’t have boundaries - can’t hold boundaries - you are an inmate target. So you better learn fast.
My boundaries protect my peace.
Join me May 6th to talk about and learn how to set boundaries. Link in Bio!

The subject of time lead us to a discussion around boundaries - which lead to another workshop.
We have no time. We take on too much. We feel overwhelmed. Because we suck at saying NO to the s**t we don’t actually want to do. We feel guilty for communicating our needs, we lose precious time with the things and people we love, and we tend to forget that our boundaries only need to make sense to us. They are not negotiable.

Need some guidance. And maybe a tiny bit of permission to set some boundaries. Here it is.
There are 10 spots. See ya there.
