About
Janine La Rosa
Janine has worked across a wide range of sectors and is still in a C-suite role today. She discovered the value of the pause following health issues that forced a long, hard look at the real impact of racing at 100mph. She is a busy mum of two and a working executive — so she understands the juggle, and is well placed to support others through it.
Joy — and deepening her understanding of it — was a turning point: a recognition of the importance of real connection to self and to others.

A practitioner's path
Manipura Leadership grew from a question Janine sits with in both her executive work and her doctoral research: how do we develop leaders equipped to navigate complexity? Her answer points inward as much as outward — to attention, to presence, to the quality of relationship a leader builds with themselves first.
Her interventions draw on contemplative practice — particularly the steady, accessible discipline of meditation — alongside evidence-based coaching, applied research and the lived texture of senior leadership.
Three threads of work
- Executive coaching — long-form one-to-one work with C-suite and board-facing leaders.
- Meditation & wellbeing — including the Manipura Empowered Pause course for perimenopause and menopause, and bespoke wellbeing workshops.
- The Joy Series — gatherings that create space in leadership for joy as a strategic, regenerative force.
