Laura has a rare ability to listen deeply and then translate what she hears into beautifully crafted narrative. Her writing captures both the detail of a story and the emotional truth behind it.
Emily Maitlis, Journalist and Broadcaster
Laura Hearn is a rare form of writer. She has the ability to absorb a subject and write as if she is the subject herself. For someone with the background of career BBC journalist and producer she has the ability to inhabit a subject within its skin while also architecting her work from 50,000 ft. This is a rare rare skill especially considering that her finished prose and storytelling appears sophisticated but organic, natural and effortless. If I needed someone to tell my story the alchemist we know as Laura Hearn would be my first choice.

Laura’s one-to-one session was one of the most valuable investments I’ve made in my business. In just two hours, she helped me articulate my current story and future vision more clearly than ever before, while giving me the tools to get there through powerful storytelling. Her genuine passion, insight, and ongoing support instilled incredible confidence in me – without a doubt, the best investment I’ve made this year.
Sarah Coleman, Beyond The Table
Laura Hearn has heart. A heart that roars with humanity, beats with empathy, and pumps so much love into the world. As a coach, speaker, mentor or interviewer, Laura engages and energizes.
Tony Chapman, Host of Chatter That Matters
Laura has an extraordinary ability to secure the hardest interviews, but more than that, she has a rare instinct for people and for stories, knowing not only what questions to ask, but how to listen and create the trust that allows someone to share what really matters.
Simon Waldman, Former BBC TV News Editor
She has a natural talent for shaping those conversations into clear, compelling narratives and deeply cares about finding the heart of a story and bringing it to life in a way that feels both authentic and engaging for the audience.
She was as impressive in the field as she was back in the newsroom, combining tenacity with real sensitivity. Always calm under pressure, she was a joy to work with and an asset to any team.
Laura completely transformed how we tell our brand story. She sharpened our website and communications so they truly reflect who we are, and brought our clients’ voices to life through thoughtful interviews and engaging video and copy. Her gift for drawing out authentic stories and turning them into clear, compelling messages was invaluable. We now communicate our services and the value we add with far greater clarity and confidence. Laura was a pleasure to work with and has left us with content that continues to build trust and credibility with our clients.
Liz Beck, Former CEO and Founder of AspiringHR Ltd
Laura has been writing for one of our magazine titles, Dynamic Magazine, for some six months and has been doing a splendid job.
Maarten Hoffmann, Founder / Publisher, Platinum Media Group
She writes accurately and with a really interesting take on the subject matter and we have received many compliments from readers regarding her features. Laura recently interviewed Sir Rod Aldridge for the main cover story. Not only was the four page interview very well written and researched but Rod called me to say how much he enjoyed the experience and how novel it was that a journalist arrived having done such thorough research.
Laura is also very adept at storytelling; for example, she can speak with a company board and highlight all the salient points of their journey, in telling the story for their client base and wider audience.
