My name is Lorraine Bruning, and I'm the owner, founder, and coach behind Wisdom At Work.

 

At the heart of coaching is change, and I believe that real, lasting change doesn't come from simply working harder or thinking happier thoughts. Change comes from curiosity, a supportive environment, and a willingness to understand yourself: your strengths, your patterns, and your opportunities for growth. In short, it comes from wisdom. And wisdom is something that can be actively cultivated.

 

Through personalized, thoughtful coaching grounded in human development and psychology — and over a decade of experience in public service, mental health, and advocacy — I help people grow their self-knowledge, sharpen their sense of identity, and build a toolkit of evidence-based resources they can carry through every season of life. My role is to guide you in building wisdom: not just enough to get through today's challenges, but deep enough to serve you for a lifetime.

 

As an IAPRC Certified Life and Identity Coach, I work with people navigating change, transition, and the ongoing work of discovering who they are, what they want, and how to translate that into a more authentic life.

 

Wisdom, as I see it, is the intersection of self-awareness, lived experience, and the capacity to adapt and grow. When you strengthen that, everything shifts — your decisions, your relationships, your resilience, your sense of purpose.

 

So what does wisdom look like for you? That's something we can explore together. Growth and success are deeply personal. I want to help you define what they mean to you and support you in making that your reality.
