About Laura
Laura Smith Biswas is a bridge between worlds. She links the tangible and spiritual in two key areas - relationships and business. At the core of all her work is the relationship we have to love itself. She translates this into practical wisdom to help others experience more love in relationships - whether those are intimate ones or further out in our circles of connection through work.
Her background comes from diverse areas including business and finance in top global companies, entrepreneurship, shamanic medicine training, spiritual psychology, grief recovery, and more. This wealth of experience and training has resulted in two areas of practice: The Love Mandala for creating greater love and intimacy in relationship and The Leadership Mandala for guiding others to conscious leadership and operational excellence in business. Both practices are part of the offerings within The Sacred Mandala.
As best-selling author of The Cosmology of Love: 70+ Ways to Experience Greater Love, she illuminates how to identify what your top needs are in receiving love, specific ways to help you create more loving relationships and improve your skillset in communicating love with all the people in your life. Her work serves as a reminder that love isn’t an accidental thing we find, but something that thrives under conditions that we have the power to cultivate.
She is also a serial entrepreneur who loves exploring entrepreneurial models of work that blend sound principles of psychology with strong business fundamentals. She is passionately engaged in leading as an aware, humanistic leader who believes that a holistic model of work is not only engaging but necessary for the highest levels of success.
In her leadership coaching practice, she supports clients to create organizations built on these same fundamentals. She has led clients as an executive and financial coach, a mindfulness/meditation educator, as a retreat and team building facilitator, and oversees the leadership development at her own company Cadence as well.
She is also a mother of three young adult children and lives in Southern California with her life partner. She holds an MBA from Yale University and a MS in Spiritual Psychology from the University of Santa Monica.
