Creative strategist with
an excess of insights and a
desk covered in teacups.
( For the Curious )
Laura-Jade is a founder turned mentor and consultant delivering meaningful strategy at the intersection of business, personal growth and creativity. A philosophical thinker by nature with an action-driven mentality, she helps people see and do things differently to achieve an enriched kind of success.
Some people measure success in shiny things. I see it differently.
To me, success isn’t showy. It's a feeling. It's extra time for the things we love, finding connection in the world around, laying down at night with a sense of self and waking up with a vision for the day ahead.
It’s living a life of purpose. I help others connect with theirs.
Curious? Let’s get into it, shall we.
LAURA-JADE, FOUNDER
Laura-Jade is an industry-leading business-slash-brand strategist, a professional mentor with a personal focus and founder of creative agency Manifesto.
With a global career spanning almost two decades across business, property, hospitality, and the creative industries, Laura-Jade’s natural curiosity, intuition and analytical mind have seen her make a splash in both the creative and commercial worlds.
Founder of Australian brand and business-strategy agency, Manifesto – previously known as Monday Agency – she has led $50-$250M+ brands and projects as head strategist and creative director, bringing a genuine love of collaboration, a refreshed perspective, and her British sense of wit to each project.
It’s not about the hustle though. Laura-Jade’s deep interest in self-discovery and the human experience has led her to cultivate a new approach to work and success. One that prioritises purpose, calls upon an innate wisdom, and nourishes each day with meaningful connections.
Guided by her studies in yoga, pilates, reiki, somatic therapies and vedic meditation, she lives and works seasonally in a way that combines these creative, spiritual and commercial skills. And, with great pleasure, shares her insights with others to better navigate the only thing that’s certain in life: change.
