LAURA WARD·CO (LWCO) is a communications consulting agency providing virtual expertise, new business coaching, and public relations solutions for solopreneurs, small business owners, and nonprofit organizations.
Prior to founding of LWCO in 2023, I spent seven years at a full-service marketing communications agency before shifting into my work as a public relations cosultant. Constantly chasing the elusive work-life balance (and overdue client payments!), I learned how to do eleventy-billion things that had absolutely nothing to do with public relations and entirely everything to do with whether or not she succeeded as a business owner.
I made TONS of mistakes, dealt with the consequences (which were, at times, dire), and learned ALL the lessons. In fact, I gained so much expertise as confidence as a business owner that after I earned certification as a professional life and addiction recovery coach in 2018, I knew exactly how to set up, launch, market, and quickly grow my successful coaching practice (with my eyes closed!).
