Around the Ladder: Vision, Values, and Doing Business Your Way with Laura Green

In this new episode of Around the Ladder, host Erika Steinberg welcomes Laura Green, a growth strategist and founder of Impact Vector, who helps entrepreneurs and creative leaders build, grow, and protect the businesses they love. Together, they explore what it really means to design a business that serves both your vision and your life. Laura shares her journey from educator to entrepreneur to strategist, and how growing up with a “chronic entrepreneur” father gave her a front-row seat to the emotional highs and lows of building something from scratch. Her biggest lesson: a founder’s vision isn’t just a business asset, it’s their compass. The conversation covers: The importance of uncovering a founder’s true vision—and saying it out loud for the first time How to align systems and strategy so your business works for you, not the other way around Why authenticity and self-awareness are the foundation of growth The power of giving yourself permission to design a business that fits your values Laura’s mantra: “You get to pick.” She and Erika dig into how mindset, structure, and clarity intersect—and how founders can overcome the illusion that growth always means “more.” Sometimes, it’s about doing less, but doing it better.   Connect with Our Guest: Website: impact-vector LinkedIn: Laura Green
