Today we’d like to introduce you to Laurren Jones.
Laurren, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
My entrepreneurship journey started the moment I said YES to more than what life was offering me. I began this walk a new mother struggling to find peace in a chapter of my life where I was at my lowest. I had been a massage therapist who gave all of me away to serve my clients for minimal pay until I had my son who reminded me of my innate power and worth. I knew I had a calling on my life to be a speaker and vessel for spirit and so I began my training as a somatic coach and now help Black WOC heal their trauma through the healing power of the body that we are all born with. I have served hundreds of students since I began my business at the beginning of the pandemic & know that my impact will reach millions! Me saying YES to more was me answering the call to my destiny.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
This road has been ever-changing. I always say that my entrepreneurship journey has been a reflection of my life & with all my ups and downs, my business has grown with and even been a catalyst for my internal healing. Since the beginning of my business, I have faced a life-changing break up with my son’s father, my father having a stroke, losing money on investments & even flopping a few launches. Through it all however, my business has grown a thick skin similar to our ancestor’s hands and feet that calloused over after picking cotton in the fields. My business has grown resilience through the hardship and has proved to me time and time again that I am one hell of a woman!
As you know, we’re big fans of Trauma Queen Therapeutics. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
Trauma Queen Therapeutics is a Black Woman-owned company that aims to bring healing, education & tangible practices to help heal today’s lineage of Black women. We focus primarily on healing trauma in the nervous system through intention therapeutic bodywork & Somatic coaching.
This brand is known for creating space for Black women to rediscover their body’s innate healing power through blending self-compassion, Somatic-science & ancestral practices that can repair the nervous system and change our lives.
What I am most proud of with my brand is my ability to simplify and empower black women to know that they were born to heal and grow. And that I (and other practitioners) are not responsible for their transformations. We view our sista-students & soulmate clients as the expert of their journey & healing and not the other way around!
People should know that Trauma Queen Therapeutics stands for healing justice. That this work is not simply about feeling good and transforming lives but also bloodlines! When we work to heal ourselves internally, we unwind and replenish the generations that came before and after us. We begin to lay the building blocks to a new world that sees us as whole people instead of figures of the white imagination.
What does success mean to you?
For me, success is a physical feeling more than a goal fulfilled. Often times we measure our sense of self-worth through what we have achieved or gained physically or materially but success to me is the settling feeling in your body when you know you are on the right track and following your destiny. It’s an intuitive knowing that the universe conspires to remind us each and every moment that we are moving justly & to continue exploring this infinite life. The end goal will always change success is when you fall in love with enduring the journey forward.
