A 12-week live cohort at the intersection of biblical depth, group coaching, and strategic life planning.
Because you were not made to keep wondering who you are.
None of these is a scheduling problem. Nor are they verdicts on your decision making or your capacity. Rather, they reflect an internal struggle to confidently know who you are and how to step fully into your unique giftedness and purpose.
Most Bible studies leave you inspired but unchanged. Most coaching programs leave you with goals but no framework. Most planning sessions leave you wondering if any of it truly reflects you and your God-given capabilities.
Poiema was designed to do what none of these do alone.
An in-depth topical study rooted in how God crafted you specifically for your life
Weekly live sessions to learn, ask, and grow in ways that change how you show up in the world
Create a customized strategic plan for all of life based on your uniqueness.
Poiema is the Greek word Paul uses in Ephesians 2:10 - translated “workmanship” in most English Bibles. In English it gives us the word “poem”. It appears only twice in the entire New Testament: once for the created universe, and once for you. God used the same word for both.
A poem is not mass-produced. Every word is chosen. Every line is intentional. Nothing is wasted. You were written by God before you were born. This Living Study is where you finally own and live out what God crafted about you and your life with Him.
You will know - with language and evidence - the specific talents and wiring God placed in you from birth. Not a personality type. The real thing.
You’ll understand the non-negotiables driving your decisions and life whether or not you’ve named them. When you do name and own them, they give you back your agency to live your best life.
Begin to live out a working statement of why you exist - your unique reason for being - with a holistic vision. Not borrowed from a role or a season. Yours and yours alone.
Not a career plan. A strategic, actionable plan for the next 90 days to impact your personal life, your family relationships, your work, and your community.
Women who just finished the founding cohort
“I have done a lot of Bible studies and development programs, so I was skeptical that Poiema could give me the clarity I was looking for. It did. Now my friends want to go through the next cohort.”Carina · Summer 2026 Poiema participant
“I got clarity about my God-given talents and purpose through deep connection with God’s word and real life-coaching skills.”Jacy · Summer 2026 Poiema participant
“I didn’t realize how much of my identity was tied to achievements and titles. For the first time I have a vision for my life that expands beyond my career. My career still matters, but it no longer carries the weight of defining who I am.”Devon · Summer 2026 Poiema participant
“Getting clarity and putting intentionality to every aspect of myself has been incredibly life-changing. I recommend Poiema to everyone I know.”Shannon · Summer 2026 Poiema participant
Women who have done a Life Strategy Session with Laura
“I always knew who I was underneath - but today I have words for it. Now I have a foundation I can build on. I no longer have to jump to the next thing. I can intentionally stop running.”Jocelyn
“I grew up knowing that I was loved, but not valued. Now I confidently live understanding that I’m seen, acknowledged, and valued for who I really am.”Heather
“I can now really see God’s redemption at different times in my story. God was there all along - He never left me, but rather carried me. I feel so grateful. He has so completely made beauty out of my ashes.”Angel
* Life Strategy Session outcomes reflect individual work with Laura, not the Poiema cohort experience.
Each week includes a 90-minute live Tuesday session with Laura - plus an additional 90 minutes of your own guided reflection and application throughout the week.
Sessions are recorded. If you miss one, you can watch it that week and stay with your cohort.
Poiema is not just another Bible study to cross off your list. It is for women who are ready to go beyond studying the Bible to living biblical principles alongside their God-given uniqueness - in every area of their lives.
No. You will be invited into the conversation, never put on the spot. Most of the deepest work happens on your own during the week, in your own words, in a document only you see. What you bring to the room is always your choice.
Then you are in good company. Some women arrive in the middle of an upheaval. Others arrive with a life that looks settled from the outside and a quiet sense that something is not quite theirs. This study was built for both.
No. This is group coaching that is grounded in a Bible study and a customized strategic planning process, led by a certified Life Strategist with a Master’s Degree in Theology. It is not clinical care and it does not replace it. If you are already working with a counselor, this tends to sit alongside that work well.
Every session is recorded. Watch it that week and you stay with your cohort. Life will cost you a session at some point in twelve weeks. That is expected, and it is not a reason to fall behind.
We meet on Tuesday, November 24 as scheduled. It is one of the most important sessions in the study, and it is recorded if travel makes the live hour impossible.
Yes. Two payments of $449, thirty days apart.
Discount codes only apply to the pay-in-full option.
You will get a confirmation with your Zoom link and access to your online portal right away. Your buildable playbook opens right after the first live session, so the first Tuesday is spent on the work rather than on logistics.
Come to the first two sessions. If it is not what you hoped it would be, email Laura within 48 hours of the second session and she will refund you in full. No forms, no explanation required.
Laura has sat with more than 1,000 individuals and couples in exactly this moment.
Laura graduated from USC and earned her Master’s Degree in Theology, then went on to lead high-performing sales teams within a Fortune 500 company. Her life took a profound turn when she faced and overcame cancer. That season reshaped her understanding of success, meaning, and alignment, and deepened the way she now walks with others through seasons of change.
Since 2009 she has worked as a certified Life Strategist and co-founder of Clarivol, guiding individuals and couples through life transitions, career pivots, and moments of realignment. She loves nothing more than making the Bible come alive in practical, life-changing ways for women, and has led countless Bible studies, served on women’s church leadership teams, and guided multiple two-year Discipleship Leadership intensives.
Outside of her work, Laura can be found hiking or skiing Colorado’s mountains, leading a mastermind, or adventuring around the world with her Romanian husband and their three grown boys.
The fall cohort is $897.
A private one-on-one coaching hour, scheduled mid-course, once your Talents and Mission are on the page. Not an onboarding call. A working session on your own life, with the tools already in your hands.
Laura’s full-day Life Strategy Session is $3,200. This hour is yours at no additional cost when you enroll by September 8.
Enrollment closes September 13 so your portal access, playbook, and Week 1 materials are ready before we begin.
About $75 a week · the cost of a dinner out or a mani + pedi. For the opportunity that finally answers the question of who you are.
A note on value: Clarivol’s full one-day Life Strategy Session with Laura is $3,200.
Poiema gives you 12 weeks of that same proprietary work - embedded in Scripture and community -
for roughly 28 cents on the dollar.
Have you done a LSS with Laura or another Clarivol guide?
Poiema is the natural next step - a refresher for your tools, a biblical overlay on the framework you already know, and 12 weeks of community to keep what you learned alive in your daily life.
“Through my Life Strategy Session with Laura in 2011, I discovered my life purpose, and having it written out has been a guiding light ever since. Doing it again through Poiema was a delight. It was encouraging to see what stayed exactly the same, and what became even sharper.”Nikki · Life Strategy Session 2011 · Summer 2026 Poiema participant
