THE LEGAL GROWTH CONFERENCE 2026

The 2026 Speaker Line-Up

Laurey Buckland

Host and Conference Chair

Laurey Buckland is a former journalist and English teacher turned storytelling strategist.

Using her signature StoryLed™ method, she helps founders and CEOs build storytelling systems that scale their voice, influence, and visibility, without losing their soul.

Combining journalistic curiosity with strategic messaging insight, Laurey helps leaders translate their lived experience into stories that connect, convert, and build legacy.

At a time when marketing budgets are tightening and visibility still drives growth, Laurey shows that you don’t need a bigger team to make a bigger impact; you just need to tell better stories.

Her work helps leaders rediscover the power of their own voice, build trust through authenticity, and elevate their personal brand above the noise. Because there’s nothing more persuasive or more profitable than being unmistakably yourself.
