Lara specialises in helping high-achieving women who have everything in their lives except the love life they desire.   Lara draws upon her own experiences to provide invaluable insights into recognising and escaping unhealthy relationships.

Lara emphasises the importance of recognising these patterns and taking steps to prioritise one's well-being.   A key focus of the conversation is on overcoming the fear of financial dependence, which often prevents women from leaving unhealthy situations.
