Hi, I’m Lauren Bryant

I’m Lauren Bryant, an international award-winning small business specialist and the founder of Empower House. I help business owners create more time, money, and influence through smart systems, strategy, and connection. With a background in automotive and finance, and a lived understanding of the challenges small business owners face, I’ve become known as a ‘professional hand holder’, supporting women to build scalable, sustainable businesses that actually support their lives.

 

Through my Business Club mastermind, networking events, and system implementation, I empower female founders to stop hustling and start leading with clarity and purpose.

 

When I’m not working with clients, strategising, building efficient systems, or running events, you’ll find me hosting the Empower House Podcast, or in my new mum era with my twin daughters.

 

Empower House was founded in 2016 out of a passion for small business and community. From day one, it’s been about more than just business – it’s about making a meaningful impact. With the support of incredible local business owners and event guests, we’ve proudly raised tens of thousands of dollars for charities including women’s refuges, mental health services, and homeless support initiatives. I’m committed to continuing that work for years to come.
