a little bit about

 

A Big Current

 

Connection Is Currency is currently offering online & in-person workshops, mentorship, a collaborative mastermind along with wellness services including acupuncture, massage therapy, Kambo detox ceremonies and personalized health planning. These experiences are designed to support entrepreneurs, business owners and visionaries who want to strengthen both their internal foundation and their professional growth.

We are currently preparing to open our first brick-and-mortar center in North Scottsdale, projected for April/May 2026, a flagship space where wellness, leadership and high-level professional development converge under one roof.

Connection Is Currency isn’t a co-working space, a spa or a coaching program.
It’s a new category of environment where mind, body and business evolve together.

Through in-person connection and a curated ecosystem of healers, practitioners, business experts and growth-oriented resources, we help individuals, organizations & companies connect with their mission, build what truly matters and grow in a way that’s both strategic and grounded.

At our core, humans are wired for connection. To ourselves, to our purpose, to each other and to the natural rhythms that restore us. When these connections break down or go unsupported, we inevitably operate from depletion, unclear priorities and reactive decision-making.

Connection Is Currency is designed for entrepreneurs, creators and leaders who want both: the internal nourishment that sustains them and the professional development that elevates them.

Our upcoming North Scottsdale location will integrate advanced wellness treatments, business workshops, private consulting, communal workspaces, content creation rooms and curated healing experiences... all crafted to support who you are becoming and the work you’re here to contribute.

Meet the founder

 

Lauren Wyckoff

Connection Is Currency began long before it had a name.

For over a decade, I worked with people in the healing arts through massage therapy, acupuncture, herbal medicine and somatic work. I watched people come into sessions with pain and stress in their bodies, overwhelmed minds and a depth of responsibility they rarely spoke about out loud.

And over time, a pattern revealed itself.

Entrepreneurs and leaders weren’t failing because they lacked ambition or capability.
They were struggling because what was meant to support them; their mind, body and business, was working against them.

I saw brilliant people operating on empty. Trying to make decisions from exhaustion. Juggling a dream with no clear pathway. Growing their businesses while self-doubting, silently fighting depletion and burning the candle from both ends.

At the same time, I was experiencing my own evolution that mirrored theirs.

I didn't have the resources to bring a long-awaited vision to life (Connection Is Currency Center), so I had to become resourceful with what I did have. I continuously learned how to replenish myself internally and develop skill sets because my business demanded more from me than my body and mind could sustain.

The vision for Connection Is Currency started more than ten years ago through guidance from a master healer and the name surfaced during a full-body moment of truth at Niagara Falls.

I trusted my intuition and it led me to Arizona to pursue this vision.
Without having a real plan, my life turned completely upside down.

I received an invitation to go to Niagara Falls and reluctantly, I said yes.
It made no logical sense to travel at that time. I was exhausted, barely making ends meet and questioning every decision I had ever made.
But something in me knew I needed to go, so I listened to my spirit.

As I walked up to Niagara Falls, there was a roar from the water that echoed through my chest, something inside me began to awaken.

When I closed my eyes, I could feel a current running through me that was steady, clear and undeniable. There was stillness inside the power of it. My entire body lit up. A feeling I hadn’t experienced in a very long time.

Then I heard, not as a thought, but as a knowing:

“Connection Is Currency”

We all have moments in life that change us, this was one of mine. A moment that cracked something open and reminded me that even when everything feels uncertain, we are still being guided toward who we’re meant to become.

It brings me great joy to know that what rebuilt me is now building others.

So when I say “Connection Is Currency,” it’s not just a name, a brand or clever language. It’s been lived through me in every sense of its meaning. It’s the truth that restored me and the foundation this entire company is built on.
