Your job description isn't designed to serve life. Every time you step towards redefining your role, business-as-usual metrics slow you down.
You park your desire for real change outside your office door. You pick your battles because your credibility and livelihood are at stake and the alternatives could be worse.
You keep going with small resets and coping strategies so you can face another day. But you know there’s a systemic layer that isn’t going to resolve itself.
You’re looking for a pathway for your work to serve life.

Work 1 on 1 with Lorraine to strengthen and sustain meaningful change through your work.
Practice Change was an eye-opener. It brought needed focus to my change efforts, weekly discipline, and clearer goals. Lorraine is a master coach. This is a finishing school for change agents.
For anyone feeling unsettled or unclear about their role in these shifting times, or sensing a desire to move from churn to meaningful change, Lorraine’s Practice Change program is an essential waystop. Drawing on her own lived experience and keen intuition, Lorraine creates a space that is both grounding and transformational, bringing clarity, rigor, and attunement to one’s own journey. For me, being challenged to embody my desired future-state, and then to articulate that as felt experience in the present, was empowering, scary, and delicious. The experience with Lorraine is, quite simply, pure soulcraft.
Make change stick with maximum guidance and accountability.
This is the highest-support version of Practice-Change: direct access and close support as you create meaningful change through your work.
Practice-Change is especially powerful for people holding real complexity in a world of deep upheaval. I often felt pulled by competing and urgent calls to action, unsure of my place or next step. Through Practice-Change, I've been able to explore my relationships to wellbeing, work, and system change at the same time, without needing to simplify or separate them.
The leading edge needs a village and this is a very powerful one. Since joining practice change I have been able to find clarity, get unstuck and connect with world class change makers. I am less reactive and can be more present even when urgency invites being reactive. I would highly recommend Change Practice program to anyone who has the idealism, the ambition, but is also aware of the magnitude of the challenge to change systems.
The Practice-Change methodology helped me turn a swirl of desire and ideas into a more clear, grounded path. It gave me structure to empower my right to dream and softened the anxiety that often comes with wanting to create change. The approach is both practical and deeply human — exactly what sustainability professionals need when the weight of the world feels overwhelming

Lorraine and Practice-Change helped me discover my role as a regenerative digital marketer. The comradery between the fellow changers was the pièce de résistance. Even on days that felt particularly bleak ahead of the call, I felt more clear on what I needed to do next personally and professionally.

The territory most of us find ourselves in has no roadmap. So coming up with a way to break down how we’re going to bring change to life and make it feasible week by week is a great motivator and path-builder to real change.
I'm grateful for the community and the thoughtful way Lorraine guides the process. The method encourages reflection and action in a way that feels both supportive and challenging. I would recommend it to anyone looking to shift perspectives and engage more deeply with their work.

FAQs
How much time do I need to commit each week?
In an average week you can expect to dedicate between 1.5 and 2 hours to Practice-Change. More specifically:
- The one-hour group coaching calls, plus a few minutes each week to engage with the on-line community.
- 30 minutes to do the Practice-Change method on your own, share your change in the community space, and provide supportive commentary to your peers.
- One-hour speaker presentations occur approximately two/month and are optional but also encouraged to attend live or view the recording.
Is this for me if I’ve already been doing positive change work for a while?
Yes. Most people here are already working to create positive impact through their work.
They can see what’s not working, and can feel the edges of something else — but are churning.
Practice-Change offers you a way to work within your own context and keep moving forward towards real change.
What if I'm not sure about the change I'm working on?
This program helps you get clear on what to change now, and how to make it come true.
There’s no “right” level of change. From global issues to hyper-local programs, from large group efforts to efforts specific to your own work, there's plenty of change to go around.
The one thing you do need to be clear on is that you'd like to create real positive impact through your work.
How is this different from other programs or coaching?
Most programs focus on a single approach, be it a coaching method, or particular framework.
Practice-Change brings multiple lenses together — personal development, professional context, and systems change — and applies them directly to your real work.
There’s no agenda to adopt.
You work on the change you can already see and feel is need, and you build your skills to make it true.
Is there a money-back guarantee?
Yes! If you join, engage with the onboarding, try the method for a couple of weeks, and genuinely feel it isn’t delivering value, you can request a refund within 15 days of enrollment.
You can read the full refund policy here.
I'm still unsure, can I talk to someone?
Absolutely! If you think Practice-Change might be for you but you still have questions, set up a discovery call with Lorraine, here.
I’d be glad to learn more about your goals and challenges to see if Practice-Change is a good fit.
about your guide
Lorraine Smith
After decades working alongside leaders and teams trying to do the right thing, I saw a clear pattern: what’s needed is a deeper shift in how we work. We have permission to create that shift the moment we choose.
Practice-Change is a method I use myself to keep moving toward change that matters. I share it to help others act on what they already know, and to act with clarity, courage, and accountability.
