Hi, I’m Laura Yates, the founder of The Hummingbird Life. I like to think of myself as a joy ambassador and a mental health advocate, and for the past 20 years I’ve been immersed in the world of somatic healing, movement, and sacred practices. Through my work, I help people reconnect with their inner spark, move beyond fear, and step fully into their authentic, joyful selves. I also created Secret Sunrise Singapore—immersive music and movement events that bring people together in nature across the island. I share messages on feminine flow, connection, self-acceptance, and conscious leadership. My path here wasn’t a straight line. I started in a high-pressure finance career—driven by ambition and independence—but it came at the cost of my health. Severe anxiety, depression, and burnout became my wake-up calls.
