87. Balancing Structure & Flow with 1/3 Manifesting Generator Lauren Monique
Apr 10, 2025
In episode 87, I sat down with my dear friend, former collaborator, and brilliant business mind, Lauren Monique. Lauren isn’t just a curriculum wizard, she’s the one who helped bring my vision for the Aligned Business Blueprint out of my head and into the world.
She’s a 1/3 Manifesting Generator with a background in curriculum design, a gift for systems, and a passion for helping entrepreneurs create signature programs that deliver real results. This conversation is both a celebration of our journey together and a masterclass in how to scale your brilliance without sacrificing your soul.
From Teacher to Transformational Mentor
Lauren’s story is one of evolution. Once a curriculum designer and teacher mentor, she made the courageous leap into the world of entrepreneurship. For a while, she felt boxed in by her “teacher” label, until she realized that the very skills she had once discounted were the exact gifts the online business world needed.
This episode is a reminder: the parts of you that feel “obvious” are often the very things that make you magnetic. Your gifts are not only needed, they’re gold.
Structure vs. Flow: It’s Not Either/Or
As a Manifesting Generator, Lauren moves fast, pivots often, and skips steps on the regular (in the best way). But she also knows how to create strong structures, ones that hold space for flow, creativity, and meaningful results.
She shared how she uses her monthly masterclass rhythm to create consistency, and how she builds just enough structure to support her creative energy, without boxing herself in. We also explored how honoring your unique energy type (hello Human Design!) can help you get out of the weeds and into aligned action.
The Signature Program Mindset Shift
One of the biggest takeaways from this episode? If you’re moving from one-on-one to group programs, you’ve got to make the shift from client-led to mentor-led.
Lauren explains how creating a signature program isn’t about cramming your 1:1 brilliance into a box, it’s about designing a transformational journey that’s grounded in your wisdom, delivers consistent results, and still leaves room for personalization.
Why You Need the Right Support to Scale
Whether it’s launching your signature offer, refining your curriculum, or skipping the burnout spiral, Lauren and I both agree: having the right support matters. Knowing your strengths and finding people to help you fill in the gaps is not just smart, it’s essential for sustainable growth.
This conversation is an invitation to trust your gifts, build in a way that works for YOU, and stop hiding the parts of you that make you different. Because those are the parts that will take you, and your clients, the farthest.
