Meet Laura
Welcome, friend.
Have you ever found yourself at a crossroads—where you, your life, or your work have shifted? Something’s not working, but you’re not quite sure what’s next or how to navigate the potential pivot that seems to be coming.
I'm Laura Cox Kaplan. Through my podcast, platform, and content, I help leaders navigate change, create new opportunities, and build lives and careers of purpose, resilience, and impact.
My work draws on decades in communications and public policy—across government, business, media, and nonprofit leadership—where I’ve seen firsthand how influence, used well, can open doors, spark change, and create meaningful impact.
That experience fueled my curiosity about what influence really is, why it works, and how anyone can cultivate it with intention.
Positive psychology gave me the science; my career gave me the stories and strategies.
I combine both to share tools you can put into action immediately—so you can strengthen your influence, expand your opportunities, and thrive in every season of life.
I make frequent public appearances as a keynote speaker, subject matter expert, and headliner on a range of topics, including personal and professional development, innovative approaches to public policy engagement, building and inspiring diverse teams, women’s career development and leadership, and the importance of creating a personal brand.
At the heart of this work is my top-rated podcast and multimedia platform, She Said/She Said. There, I share insights and sit down with remarkable women who are navigating their careers, communities, and personal lives with purpose — leveraging their influence to create meaningful change.
If you’re ready to grow your influence, adapt to change, and make your mark, you’re in the right place. I can’t wait to engage with you!
