Praise for The Path Redefined

“The Path Redefined is an honest and candid overview of how Lauren has forged her brand and what it takes for a forward-looking individual to build success on their own terms. This book will inspire anyone from a college graduate just building their career to a seasoned executive seeking a passion pivot. One of the most important lessons I gleaned from the book was about the power of personal brand and reputation and the control we have over others’ perceptions of us. ‘Interactions you have with a client, colleague, or friend today may be the unofficial interview for your dream job in three years.’ It’s important for entrepreneurs to build for their future every day, and with this book, Lauren has done just that. Brava!”

—Morin Oluwole, Chief of Staff to VP, Global Marketing Solutions at Facebook

“Lauren’s very frank steps to success mirror her road to prosperity: successes built on honesty, resilience, and hard work. She tells it like it is and leaves you with a clear path to go forward and tackle the challenges in front of you.”

“Lauren epitomizes her generation—they are the most knowledgeable, responsible, and powerful generation of young adults the world has ever seen—they understand better than anyone how to leverage digital and social media to drive and effect positive change in the world, and they are creating new business models where it is purpose that drives profit.

A great memoir with actionable questions that allow time for reflection and change.”

“Lauren has achieved great success early in life because she capitalized on her unique, personal talents. She creates solutions to problems and simplifies the complex, inherently.
