Go from rising educator to industry leader.

The Educators Lounge

Introducing...

Exclusive resources. Expert guidance. Unparalleled community.

Build a Six-Figure Education Stream in Your Business, Without Putting in Effort That Doesn't Pay Off

Welcome to The Educators Lounge

the membership built for service-based business owners who are ready to scale their education arm without starting from scratch or sacrificing what's already working.

If you know me, you know my passion is helping Leaders who are dedicated to scaling and bettering their craft. I know firsthand that you're the ones who are always helpings others...
so who is helping YOU? 

  • You already have a service-based business that's working. You have clients, you have experience, and you have something worth teaching. What you don't have is a clear, efficient path to turning that expertise into a revenue stream that actually pays off.
  • You've thought about launching a course, pitching a podcast, getting on stages, or building a membership. Maybe you've even started. But you're doing it on top of a business that already demands your time, and you're done trying to figure it out by trial and error on your own. 
  • You're not a beginner. You don't need someone to tell you to "find your niche." You need someone who has built both a service business and an education business to tell you exactly what's worth your time right now, and what isn't.

It's time to show up for yourself; connect with your peers and industry leaders, and walk alongside likeminded Educators as we level up together! 

Not sure if you're in the right place? This is for you if...

I'm so in!Let's do this.

INTRODUCING

The Sought-After Stages Directory

After years of being asked to create this product, I've decided to have it be exclusive to our members inside The Educators Lounge! The most important reason is that this is a living document that will be updated several times a year to reflect new opportunities, and we will be able to talk through pitches and best practices together as they arise!

This brand new feature inside the Lounge comes so heavily requested, and I am so excited to share it with you!

My absolute favorite part of the membership is the office hours.
Hearing Laylee's perspective and learning from her lived experiences has helped me anticipate and avoid issues I hadn’t even considered. She is an absolute powerhouse, and getting her direct insight, as well as the diverse perspectives of everyone else on the calls, is phenomenal. 

Geily Romero

Members get access to one live Q&A session with Laylee each month: submit questions in advance, or live on the call (time permitting). All replays will be housed in the Library (our vault of previous calls)! 

Monthly "Office Hours" - Coaching Call

what's included

5 members a month can submit their work for a live review with Laylee. Whether it's a pitch, an offer, a sales page, or something in between, you'll watch real feedback happen in real time. Even if your work isn't selected, you'll walk away knowing exactly what to look for in your own.

The Audit (monthly)

A live monthly session where Laylee shares what she's noticing, questioning, and observing in the industry right now. No fluff, just real talk on the topics that matter most to educators and speakers in this season.

The Pulse (monthly)

Members get access to the vault of previous trainings/calls as long as they're inside The Educators Lounge. Joining the Lounge unlocks access to all previous resources, recorded office hours, and guest educator interviews.

The Library

Access to a curated, up-to-date directory of 25+ conferences, podcasts, events, and retreats actively looking for speakers in the creative industry. Each listing includes the point of contact, application link, timeframes, event dates, and more, with the database refreshed quarterly so your next stage is always within reach.

The Sought-After Stages Directory

Building a community is at the heart of The Educators Lounge: this is a space for educators to connect, and the opportunities are HUGE. This is the go-to group for industry-leading educators to connect: Referrals. Podcast swaps, speaking opportunities, course affiliates and guest speaking. 

Private Community

My favorite part of the membership is the "Office Hours"  coaching calls where we can talk through challenges and not only get Laylee's feedback but my peers' feedback as well.

What specific benefits will I get from this membership that I can't get elsewhere?

Our membership offers exclusive resources, personalized support, and a vibrant community tailored specifically for creative entrepreneur educators, digital course creators, speakers, and digital product business owners. You’ll gain access to strategies and insights that are not available in general business communities.

How often is new content added?

A new educational Live session will be added each month, in addition to a live Q&A coaching call and live Audit of member work, ensuring that our education is always current and relevant to your need. We love taking suggestions from our members; this helps shape the future content of the Lounge together.

Are resources tailored to different levels of experience?

Yes, our resources are designed to cater to different levels of experience, from rising educators to established industry educators. We advise our members be established in their field, and have the desire to continue their professional development in order to become the best educator possible.  

How active and engaged is the community?

Our community is meant to be highly active and engaged. Members are encouraged to regularly participate in discussions, share insights, and support each other in achieving their goals. Access to the community is also available on The Educators Lounge app, so you can tune in on the go!

What opportunities will I have to network with other members?

We offer numerous networking opportunity prompts in our community group, the monthly coaching call, and of course the annual Creative Educator Conference is a great place to come together in person each year! 


What kind of support is available if I have questions or need help?

We encourage our members to lean not only on Laylee for support but on the community members as well; this truly unique group of industry leaders will be a wealth of knowledge - utilize it! Live Q&A sessions, and a dedicated community forum where you can get answers from both peers and experts will also be included.

Are there any live Q&A sessions with experts?

Yes, we offer 3 high touch regular monthlycalls where you can get direct feedback and advice from Laylee.  Laylee currently does not offer any outside coaching at this time. Members are encouraged to take advantage and ask anything!

How do I access the membership platform?

Our platform is fully accessible on both mobile devices and desktop through our App, ensuring you can access our resources anytime, anywhere! We want to make sure The Educators Lounge is easy to access—this is your go-to resource as you build your career, so we hope you'll visit the Lounge frequently.

Can I cancel my subscription at any time?

Yes, we offer easy cancellation. You can choose a quarterly option with monthly payments, or commit to an annual subscription and get two months free. Canceling your membership is straightforward and hassle-free. You can cancel at any time through your account settings, and you will not be charged for the following quarter or year (depending on the plan you register for). 

How does the membership ensure ethical practices in its educational content and community interactions?

Frequent Quesitons

Our Ethical Educator Guarantee

We strive to be as transparent as possible. When you join the monthly membership, you can easily cancel at any time. You will keep access to all materials through the end of the payment period. 

I built my education business with a small audience, a packed client calendar, and undiagnosed ADHD (oops). Nobody handed me a roadmap for doing both at the same time, and I made a lot of expensive mistakes figuring it out; but I'm so happy I did! 

Over the past decade, I've spoken on stages, built a membership, launched courses and a podcast, and created a beautiful community and conference that sells out year after year.
And I built all of it while running a service business in parallel.
That's why I built the Educators' Lounge.
Not for people starting from scratch, but for people like you: already established, already busy, already good at what they do, and ready to stop leaving education revenue on the table.
   
I know what it costs to build this wrong. I also know what it takes to build it right. And inside the Lounge, that's what I'm here to help you do.
