Lauren Clark
Lauren is a freelance writer and editor with a decade of print and digital journalism experience. While she specialises in covering health and wellness topics - ranging from nutrition and fitness, to women’s health conditions and mental wellbeing - she has written across a diverse range of lifestyle topics, including fashion, beauty, interiors and travel.
In addition to writing for Woman & Home and sister title Homes & Gardens, Lauren's work has also been published by Women’s Health, The Times, Daily Telegraph, Elle, Cosmopolitan, The Guardian, Marie Claire, Body + Soul, Stylist, Glamour, Grazia, Red, Dazed Digital, Yahoo Life, The Sun’s Fabulous, Get The Gloss and Hello! among others.
Before going freelance, Lauren was Acting Commissioning Editor at Women's Health magazine - where she co-produced the popular Going For Goal podcast. Other career highlights so far include: interviewing Heidi Klum, spending the day as a Playboy Bunny, skiing and surfing in the same California trip, and joining an £18k-a-year London gym. Someone’s got to do it!
When she’s not typing away at her desk, Lauren winds down with yoga, some reality TV and a hyaluronic acid-infused sheet mask. Things that bring her joy: a warming flat white, long sunny walks and digital detoxes. You can follow her on Instagram and subscribe to her health and wellness-focused newsletter Well, Actually… which has been named a Substack Featured Publication.
