Meet the founder

Hi, I’m Laura — founder of Verwild. Dutch by origin, currently living between the Netherlands, South Africa, and the UK. A connector, a creator, and someone who believes we can lead differently — with heart, with awareness, and with intention.

For nearly a decade, I lived in London and built a career I was proud of. I worked closely with C-level executives at Fortune 500 companies, moved across strategic sales, business development, and commercial strategy roles, and built a strong, international network.

I was financially thriving, socially alive, constantly traveling for work — often to global conferences and client meetings. By all traditional definitions of success, I had made it.
 

And still… something deeper felt off.

I never identified with the word burnout. I didn’t collapse or drop everything. I just kept going — pushing through the stress, the illness, the subtle signs that my body was struggling. High cortisol, high adrenaline, always in fight or flight. I didn’t have time to stop. Until I realized… I had to.

​

Because this couldn’t be the only way to live. This version of “success” was costing me too much.

That realization — quiet at first — grew louder. Through yoga, mindfulness, and stillness, I started to understand: the way we work, the way we lead, the way we live… needs to change. We need more connection. To our bodies. To each other. To nature. To purpose.

Then, in late 2024, a serious surf accident forced that realization into my bones — literally. It was the universe’s final nudge: stop running. Start listening.

 

And so Verwild was born.

It’s not about rejecting productivity or ambition. I still believe in high performance. But I believe in doing it from a place of connection — where we’re not just achieving more, but becoming better. Better leaders. Better teammates. Better humans. This is how we build sustainable success. This is how we create work cultures that don’t just retain people — they grow them.

Verwild is a space to remember what matters. To reconnect with nature, with others, and with yourself. A place to breathe, move, taste, laugh, heal, and feel human again.

Because when we lead from connection, we grow in a way that’s better — for people, for our careers, for the planet, and for ourselves.

This is the movement.
We are Verwild.
