ABOUT

Meet Jasmin Haywood

Hi, I'm Jasmin Haywood - Army veteran, social worker, and certified life coach. I founded LOTUS with one mission: to help individuals navigate change, reclaim their power, and build lives rooted in clarity, confidence, and purpose.

With over a decade of experience in leadership, case management, and personal development, I've supported people through life's toughest transitions - from military to civilian life, from uncertainty to purpose, from surviving to thriving.
