Your inner wisdom has an important message for you if you’re open to listening.

WHO IS BRAVE LACE?

Brave Lace is a life coach for exhausted women and the founder of Vital Accord, LLC — a coaching practice built on one core belief: that women aren't broken, they're just buried. Buried under the noise of everyone else's needs, the weight of endless "shoulds," and the slow erosion of their own voice.

Lace knows what it means to find yourself again after life has stripped you down. As a two-time Paralympic medalist and World Champion in Alpine ski racing and the recipient of two kidney transplants, she brings lived expertise in resilience, identity, chronic illness, and the long road back to self. Her coaching is trauma, disability, and chronic illness-informed — because she's learned that healing isn't linear, and strength doesn't look one way.

Beyond coaching, Lace serves on the board of Wisconsin Meaningful Alternatives, as a Wisconsin State Trails Council member, and as a working member of Ebb and Flow Connections Cooperative, working to reshape how communities respond to mental health and substance use.

When she's not coaching or advocating, you'll find Brave Lace public speaking, writing songs, trying on wigs, riding her off-road hand cycle, and playing with her dog, Ella.

My life philosophy

I’ve lived one hell of a life, and one thing I know for sure - the relationship with ourselves is VITALLY important. When we are in accord with ourselves, we know who we are, and we can hear our own voice and wisdom. This makes our lives in relationships so much easier to navigate. We know when to speak up, when to stay silent, when to join in, and when to say no. This has saved my life more times than I can count.


“Lace is a warm person I feel like I can tell her anything. She really listens and makes you feel seen.”

— C.C., Eau Claire, WI
