Lani Gonzales

Lani Gonzales

Lani Gonzales helps successful women and high achievers who look accomplished on the outside—but feel exhausted, disconnected, or unfulfilled on the inside—create success without burnout and power without losing their soul.

Many of the women Lani works with have done everything “right.” They’ve built impressive careers, achieved financial independence, and earned respect—yet inside, they feel stuck, overextended, or quietly empty. The constant pressure to perform, produce, and prove has pulled them further from their intuition, their body, and their deeper sense of purpose.

After becoming a law firm partner at 23, Lani lived that same story. From the outside, she had it all. On the inside, she was driven by subconscious survival patterns and a nervous system locked in overdrive. Her own awakening led her to leave the legal profession and devote her life to studying the subconscious mind, human behavior, and the wisdom traditions that have guided healing and leadership for thousands of years.

Today, Lani blends neuroscience-based hypnotherapy, performance psychology, and ancient wisdom traditions to help high-achieving women:
- Rewire burnout and overdrive at the root
- Break free from subconscious self-sabotage
- Reconnect to clarity, intuition, and inner authority
- Build success that feels aligned, sustainable, and alive

Her talks are known for being raw, strategic, and deeply activating—combining modern science with timeless wisdom to create real, lasting transformation. Audiences leave with tools they can use immediately to change how they lead, live, and work.

I speak to leaders and teams navigating fragmented data, manual processes, and growing organizational complexity who want systems they can rely on, not workarounds.

With over 15 years of experience leading teams and operations, including more than 6 years owning enterprise data architecture, analytics platforms, and automation, I work closely with executive leadership to align data decisions with real business priorities. My focus is not on tools for their own sake, but on clarity, trust, and long term ownership.

I am known for simplifying complex environments, reducing unnecessary tools, and establishing clear standards for data quality and integration so reporting holds up in real world use. Most recently, I led enterprise automation and integration initiatives that generated over $274K in annualized recurring value within a single quarter, while strengthening data trust across the organization.

Audiences value my ability to translate technical complexity into practical, executive relevant guidance that resonates with both leadership and practitioners. My sessions are grounded in real enterprise experience and focus on decision confidence, adoption, and sustainable operating models.

In addition to my full time role, I lead A River of Data, advising founders and finance leaders on designing practical, well governed BI and automation systems that support sustainable growth.

I work best with organizations that care about building technology that works for people, not just systems.

Topics I Speak On

• Making data meaningful for people, not just systems
• Reducing tool sprawl and restoring trust in reporting
• Designing data and automation systems that scale with the business
• From dashboards to decisions: enabling leadership confidence
