  • Creator of the Style Is a Superpower method
  • Advisor to C-suite execs, politicians, and Fortune 500 companies

Lauren A. Rothman is a style strategist, author, and keynote speaker who helps leaders align their outer presence with their inner power, working from the premise that what people wear speaks before they do.


Lauren is the author of Style Bible: What to Wear to Work and creator of the Style Is a Superpower method, a framework for understanding style as a form of nonverbal communication. She has advised C-suite executives, politicians, and Fortune 500 companies, and her insight on confidence, lifestyle trends, and nonverbal communication has featured in USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Hollywood Reporter, and on CNN.


Lauren works with organizations through keynotes, panels, and fireside chats, both in person and virtually, drawing on emotional intelligence and visual communication to help leaders navigate identity shifts and high-stakes moments. Her talks, including The Art of Showing Up and The New EQ for Modern Leaders, give audiences a practical framework for building presence in a multi-platform world.


Leaders come away with language and tools for showing up with greater confidence and credibility, and teams gain a shared vocabulary for how behavior, appearance, and intention shape trust and collaboration.


Book Lauren to help your leaders turn presence into a measurable business advantage.

Lauren's showreel and videos

Topics, sessions and talks

The New EQ For Modern Leaders

Lauren Rothman explores emotional intelligence through the lens of visibility and decision-making, showing how emotional behavior shows up long before anyone speaks. She guides leaders through recognizing how behaviors, body language, and presence communicate leadership, and how internal state shapes external action in high-stakes moments. The session connects self-awareness to clearer communication and stronger trust, leaving audiences with a sharper sense of how consistent, authentic presence builds credibility, alignment, and more effective collaboration across their teams.

The Art Of Showing Up

Lauren Rothman reframes presence as a skill that can be learned rather than something people are simply born with. Drawing on identity, intention, and appearance, she walks audiences through the small, strategic choices that shape confidence, credibility, and leadership in everyday moments. Attendees examine how these elements intersect across in-person and digital spaces, gaining a practical lens for showing up authentically and strengthening their personal brand, whether in the boardroom, on camera, or in daily interactions.

Wardrobe As A Wellness Tool

Lauren Rothman treats getting dressed as more than a daily chore, showing how wardrobe choices can shift mindset, regulate emotion, and support wellbeing from the boardroom to the bedroom mirror. She walks audiences through how clothing influences the nervous system, helping people feel grounded and calm, and how simplifying a wardrobe around how someone wants to feel creates more ease and clarity. Attendees leave viewing getting dressed as a daily check-in with themselves, one that reinforces identity and supports wellbeing.

Why we recommend booking Lauren

Lauren brings C-suite credibility and stagecraft, having advised Fortune 500 leaders and politicians on presence. A strong fit for leadership or personal branding programs.

Silvia Taylor

Executive Vice President

Few people can motivate and inspire a crowd like Lauren! I've hired Lauren over and over again to speak to our shoppers at Potomac Mills and for Simon Malls - her fashion shows and style tips are accessible, affordable and size inclusive. I am always impressed at how she can move a crowd while adding a personal touch. Her style is always on point and she is a true asset for any company looking to hire a motivational speaker. She has taken my events to the next level and I can't wait to see what the future has in store for us!

Bethany (Zorn) Webb

Director, Business Development, Simon Property Group

Lauren Rothman brought energy, grace, and glamour to our speaker series Through Her Eyes: Navigating Work, Life, and Yourself in the Time of COVID. As we continue to maneuver working remotely where the lines between work and life are blurred, and days are filled with back-to-back virtual meetings, Lauren inspired us to own our 6ft. space and taught our network the personal and professional value of investing in yourself. Her knowledge of style is unparalleled, but it is her charisma that is absolutely magnetic. It was a pleasure working with Lauren and we feel fortunate to have spent time learning from her!

Most bookings can be rescheduled with reasonable notice. Cancellation terms vary by speaker and are set out clearly in the contract before you confirm, so there are no surprises. PepTalk's team supports you through any change. Contact hello@getapeptalk.com as soon as plans shift.

Can PepTalk help plan the speaker programme for my event?

Yes. Beyond booking a single speaker, PepTalk helps shape a full programme, matching voices to your agenda, audience, and goals across a day or a series. It is a consultative service, not just a booking. Tell us about your event at getapeptalk.com.

Before your speakers arrive, confirm AV is tested, a green room is ready, and printed schedules are on hand. Prepare warm introductions for each speaker and brief your team on timings. PepTalk speakers come fully briefed, making event-day logistics smoother and stress-free from the start.

What's the difference between a keynote speaker, an MC, and event entertainment?

A keynote speaker delivers an inspiring or informative talk. An MC hosts and guides the event, keeping things on track. Entertainment — like a band or comedian — creates atmosphere and fun. Each serves a different purpose, and PepTalk can help you book the right talent for all three.

Life happens! Most speaker bookings can be rescheduled with reasonable notice. Cancellation terms vary by speaker, but PepTalk handles all the details & contracts transparently upfront so there are no surprises. Our team supports you through any changes, making the process as smooth as possible.
