The Mind Body Connection

Louisiana ranks last in a lot of lists but one area where the
state is pretty close to the top is in the number of lawyers per
capita. That’s right, Louisiana is 11th among the 50 states in
terms of the number of attorneys in the state. While that means
you won’t have trouble finding someone should you need to file a
lawsuit or negotiate a contract or divorce your spouse – it’s
probably a safe bet that they’re not necessarily all good lawyers
or happy lawyers because, let’s face it – it’s a difficult,
stressful and challenging profession that requires a lot of
expertise.  And in matters where expertise is required, more
is not necessarily better.


Lexlee Overton is a Baton Rouge attorney who has found a way to
help her colleagues be better, perform better for their clients
and feel happier in their profession. Lexlee is a seasoned
lawyer, executive leadership expert and peak performance
specialist. And melding all this together, Lexlee has created a
coaching method, for lack of a better term, that she calls Mind
Over Law.


Mind Over Law offers team building workshops, one-on-one
counseling and training sessions, coaches legal teams, and leads
a national leadership program for women.


Lexlee developed this method after spending more than two decades
in the legal profession and experiencing the kind of burnout she
now tries to help her clients overcome. 


While Lexlee is coaching lawyers, Lauren Temple is coaching
people on how to maximize their fitness and physical performance
– which brings mental well-being along with it – through her two
boutique fitness clubs.


Lauren's two fitness clubs, which are both on Perkins, are called
Tone BR. The two clubs are a merger of what used to be Tread BR
and Pilates Plus.


Lauren is a native of Baton Rouge and single mom, raising two
daughters, who experienced a terrible injury and had to learn how
to walk again. After overcoming those challenges, Lauren was
determined to run her own fitness studios. In the years since,
she has grown the clubs into successful and growing
businesses  in a market that is notoriously competitive for
gyms and fitness club operators.
