I’m Lani Allen—a seasoned creative strategist, AI enthusiast, photographer, and mentor for women who are ready to stop blending in and start shining brighter!

After decades shaping strategic campaigns for Marvel, Mattel, Kodak, and Motorola, I walked away from the boardroom to build something more intimate-my own commercial/editorial photography studio in the San Francisco Bay Area. There, I discovered my purpose behind the lens: capturing women in their raw, unfiltered power. My niche in boudoir and empowerment photography became a mirror for what I now teachhow to see yourself clearly and unapologetically, and then build your brand from that truth. When I returned to consulting, I brought both worlds together; corporate-level strategy with creative soul. I now help women entrepreneurs over 50 who already have a business but feel stuck, scattered, or invisible online. Together, we refine your niche, shape your message, and create a content rhythm that feels sustainable and alive.

My approach blends strategy, psychology, and emotional clarity. I understand what makes people connect—and how to build trust with a smaller, more meaningful audience. You don’t need to go viral. You need to be heard. Through my Social Media Bootcamps, I help women cut through digital overwhelm and reclaim their presence with confidence. My clients call me a “Social Media Therapist” because we don’t just build brands—we heal the fear that keeps women from being visible.

As a Board Member of Mano Amiga in San Miguel de Allende, I support women in achieving independence through 0% microloans and business mentorship. It’s the same mission that drives me: helping women step into financial and creative freedom by owning their voice and leading from truth.

I’m here to guide and mentor you as an accountability coach and consultant for everything marketing and content creation from strategy to storytelling, from visual branding to social media. I’ll help you find your rhythm, create a road map and keep your momentum up, and create a business you love where you own the road. If you’ve built something real but can’t quite translate it into resonance, let’s find your frequency!
